FAQ
-
How can I set the minimum age?

The default minimum age is 18. You can change it the WooCommerce settings:
WooCommerce > Settings > Minimum Age > Minimum age
-
How can I change the order of the date fields?
-
The default order of the birth date fields is day, month, year. You can choose a different layout in the settings:

-
Can I show the date of birth question conditionally?
-
There is a filter hook
minimum_age_woo_show_question
that allows developers to hide the date of birth question if it isn’t required, e.g. only show for products in certain categories. It accepts a single boolean parameter, and returns a boolean: true to show the question, otherwise false.
