Choices Summary

When a user agrees to your terms and conditions, it means that they have given their informed approval to your policies, procedures, and guidelines outlined on the terms page. The Woo Additional Terms plugin saves the record of the user’s agreement on the single order page, which protects both the shop owner and the user. It encourages transparency and accountability in your store.

In addition, keeping track of which users have agreed, can serve as a reference point for any legal disputes or challenges to your terms and conditions. It shows that your website is upfront and honest about its policies, and you ensure users know their rights and responsibilities.

Tracking accepted terms and conditions can help you provide better customer service. For example, suppose a user has a question or concern about your policies. In that case, you can quickly look up the order and verify whether they agreed to the terms and conditions and when, which can also be helpful for auditing purposes.

After you receive an order, the acceptance of user agreements attaches to the order as a note. To review the Order Notes, go to WooCommerce → Orders and click on the Order number.

By selecting the Choices Summary in the General tab, you can get an overview of the recorded user choices for Additional Terms checkboxes on the single order page.

Once you select the Choices Summary, you can find the acceptance of the terms and conditions checkboxes on the single order page.

1. Navigate to WooCommerce → Orders.
2. Click on the Order number.
3. Review the acceptance of terms and conditions checkboxes in the Additional Terms section.

Sort Terms

The default sorting order for the terms and conditions checkboxes is based on the last modified date. Select the Sort by custom order using the Sort terms drop-down to rearrange the order in which the “I agree” checkboxes appear and tailor the checkout page to your specific needs and preferences. This can improve the overall user experience and increase customer satisfaction.

1. Navigate to WooCommerce → Settings → Additional Terms.
2. Go to the General section within the current tab.
3. Choose whether to sort terms checkboxes by the last modified date or custom.
   • Sort by last modified date - Sort the T&C checkboxes based on the date you made the last changes to the checkbox.
   • Sort by custom order force - Activate the drag and drop option in the Terms table to reorder the checkboxes and display the T&C checkboxes based on the custom sort.
4. Click on the Save changes button.

After selecting the Sort by custom order, go to the Terms table and reorder checkboxes by grabbing and dragging them to a new location.

1. Go to the Terms section within the current tab.
2. Hover over the terms checkbox and grab the row.
3. Hold the terms checkbox, drag it up and down, and change the order.
4. Drop the terms checkbox at a new position.
