How to Create Custom WooCommerce Product Pages

Want to learn how to easily customize your WooCommerce product pages? If you run an online store, you probably want to ensure your single-product pages look great, are organized correctly, and match your branding. This can be hard to do if you’re only relying on WooCommerce and your theme to make changes because you’re more or less stuck with the default layout.

Default WooCommerce Product

Instead, you can use other plugins to do things like:

  • Add additional content elements
  • Change fonts and colors
  • Make page structure changes
  • Or even completely customize your product pages from scratch

…all without coding!

Some ideas of fully-custom product templates:

Examples of Customized WooCommerce Products

Find the perfect plugin to customize your product pages according to what you need below!

1. Edit the Cosmetic Styling of Your Product Pages

Here are some great plugins if you’re looking for just a few small cosmetic tweaks, like changes to your fonts, colors, or changes to individual elements.

WooCommerce Colors

WooCommerce Colors

WooCommerce Colors allows you to customize the colors of various WooCommerce elements such as the Add to Cart button, product price, and more. You can making these changes using the native WordPress Customizer.

This is a simple, straightforward plugin that doesn’t require any CSS knowledge. However, it only allows you to adjust the colors, and you may not be able to override some colors depending on your theme.

YellowPencil

YellowPencil allows you to change your fonts, colors, font sizes, spacing between elements, and even add animated visual effects on your site’s front-end. There are many styling options in the free version, but Yellow Pencil Pro adds advanced options for gradients, animations, custom fonts, color palettes, background images and more.

YellowPencil works on any page across your site – not just your product pages. It automatically generates CSS code for your site as you use it, and it saves it to your database rather than your theme file. This ensures you won’t lose your changes when you update your themes.

YellowPencil allows you to reorder elements in your template, but you cannot add new elements. As a result, you’re restricted to the elements that already exist in the default single-product template.

Price: Free, with paid upgrade options

CSS Hero

CSS Hero Live CSS Editor Plugin

What it does: CSS Hero is a visual editor that allows you to make styling changes to your site by automatically adjusting the CSS as you make visual changes.

Customize your template’s elements by changing the colors, fonts, responsive breakpoints, and more. You can also hide elements or save the styling of certain elements to reuse them in other places on your site.

You can’t reorder or add new elements, though, so you’re limited to the layout and elements that already exist in the product template.

Price: Paid, starts at $29 per year

2. Add New Elements to Product Listings

If you’re looking to add additional elements to your pages, like places for extra content or product videos, these plugins offer ways to add these elements to your single product pages.

WooCommerce Single Product Page Customizer

WooCommerce Single Product Page Customizer

WooCommerce Single Product Page Customizer allows you to add fields of custom text or HTML in your product template and choose where on the page to display them.

For instance, you can add information such as a clothing size guide, shipping information, or a link to your shop’s return policy. This information is then displayed for all of your products.

Single Product Page Customizer

This is a very straightforward and easy-to-use plugin, but it is limited in what you can do with it. For instance, you can’t choose to display information only for some products. You also can’t add other types of elements to your template, and you can’t rearrange any of the existing elements.

Custom Product Tabs for WooCommerce

YIKES Custom Product Tabs for WooCommerce Free Plugin

Custom Product Tabs for WooCommerce allows you to add additional tabs of text, images, HTML, or shortcodes on your product pages. You can then choose for which products to display the information.

Again, this plugin has a very focused purpose. It’s not possible to customize any other part of your product templates with this plugin besides adding tabs of additional content.

If you want to display product-specific content in your tabs, such as size charts per product, you won’t be able to do so by pulling in product information dynamically. Instead, you’ll need to create individual tabs for each product with the specific content and add them to the correct product.

Price: Free, with a paid Pro version

Product Video for WooCommerce

The plugin gives you lots of control over how your video displays. You can customize the dimensions of your video, enable autoplay, play the video in a loop, and upload a specific thumbnail image.
