The project required joining an existing WooCommerce store and identifying which parts of the purchase flow were causing problems. The priority was not to rebuild everything, but to stabilize a critical sales area.
Challenge
- The checkout had custom fields and logic that behaved inconsistently after multiple changes.
- Some data was not saved into the order in a predictable way.
- The issue affected a critical sales step, so fixes had to be careful.
FunctionalCode scope
- existing checkout analysis
- validation and data-saving review
- selected JS/PHP fixes
- order data cleanup
- recommendations for further checkout development
Solution
- Work started with tracing the real user path and places where the checkout lost consistency.
- Fixes were implemented in focused areas to avoid breaking the existing sales logic.
- Order data was organized so store operations could use it more easily.
- The project also received a list of further changes that should be handled separately from the urgent repair.
Result
- more stable order submission flow
- clearer order data after purchase
- less risk during future checkout changes
- clear separation between urgent repair and further development
