WooWeekly #244: Separate Login/Reg Pages (Plus: Woo Competitions!)

How are things?

I’m getting ready for my first WordCamp and trip of the year (Prague) so I’m excited! I hope to switch off a little as I’ve been very busy lately.

Anyway, it’s Wednesday; our appointment with WooCommerce Weekly is back! Here comes a series of WooCommerce tutorials, tips, reviews and workarounds put together by yours truly so that you can learn something “Woo”. Enjoy 🙂

WooCommerce: Separate Login and Registration Pages

There are times where you need to send logged out customers to a Login page and unregistered customers to a distinct Register page.
As you know, the WooCommerce My Account page, which contains the “woocommerce_my_account” shortcode, has both Login and Registration forms. But this is not always a good idea, mostly when you use landing pages or sales pages with a specific goal: user registration.
Clearly, when this happens, you don’t want to have a login form there as well. Give it a go, feedback is much appreciated:

WooCommerce: Remove “Metaboxes” @ Product Edit Admin Page

Let’s say you disabled product tags in your shop. Or maybe your store set up requires no short description. Or even, you want to hide a custom “metabox” (e.g. one of those widgets that appear on the Edit Product page). Either way, removing metaboxes and making the Edit Product page much cleaner is quite easy.
You just need the “ID” of the metabox and its position (‘normal’ or ‘side’, depending on whether it’s in the sidebar or not), and then this little PHP snippet. Enjoy:
