Code Explanation
- This snippet adds a “Buy Now” button to the single product page of WooCommerce using the woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_form hook. It’s placed just below the product’s Add to Cart button.
- Inside the callback function add_buy_now_button(), we first check if the product type is “simple” using the is_type() method. The button will only be displayed if the product type is simple.
- Next, we construct the URL for the button’s link using the product’s ID and the /checkout?add-to-cart= endpoint. This URL ensures that the product is directly added to the cart and redirects the user to the checkout page.
- Finally, we output the “Buy Now” button with the constructed URL as the link.
