How are you?
It’s a weird Wednesday here in Sicily, both my soon-to-be father-in-law and my mom are not feeling great so I’m concerned – hope the situation can get better. I think I’ll fly to Rome so I can look after my mom, so I might skip next week’s issue if I have no time. Thanks for your patience đŸ™‚
Anyhow, welcome back to our WooCommerce Weekly appointment – here comes a series of WooCommerce articles put together by yours truly so that you can learn something new – you’ll also find a list of previous articles in case you missed any.
New: WooCommerce Tips & Tutorials
WooCommerce: Conditionally Hide Widgets
You could use a popular plugin called Widget Logic, or instead you could keep it simple with a few lines of PHP. Here’s a snippet for you in case you need to conditionally hide a certain sidebar widget given a condition e.g. if you’re on the Cart page. Of course, you can use any of the available WooCommerce conditional tags and make this more complex, but in this example we’ll keep it simple and check if we’re looking at the Cart page (thanks to the is_cart() conditional).

You can apply this simple jQuery snippet to any piece of WooCommerce content.
