This document explains how to use the Conditional block in SureCart to display checkout fields or messages based on specific conditions, such as customer location or selected products.

Requirements

• WordPress admin access
• SureCart installed and activated
• An existing checkout form

What Is the Conditional Block

The Conditional block allows checkout content to appear or remain hidden based on defined rules.

Conditions can be created using factors such as:

• Selected products
• Shipping country
• Order value
• Applied coupons
• Payment method

When the defined rules are met, the blocks inside the Conditional block are displayed during checkout.

Use Case: Show a Tax ID Field Based on Customer Country

This example demonstrates how to display a Tax ID field only when the customer’s shipping country matches specific values.

• Go to WordPress Dashboard → SureCart → Checkout.
• Open the checkout form you want to edit.

• Click the + icon to add a new block.

• Search for Conditional and add the Conditional block.

• Select the Conditional block and click Add Conditions.

• In the Condition dropdown, select Shipping Country.

• Choose the countries where the field should appear (for example, United States, India, and Brazil).
• Click Set Rules.

• Click the + icon inside the Conditional block.

• Search for Tax and insert the Tax ID or VAT field.

• Update the label if needed (for example, SSN, CPF, or Tax ID).
• Click Update to save the checkout form.

The Tax ID field will now appear only when customers from the selected countries reach the checkout.

Use Case: Show a Pre-Order or Backorder Notice

You can also use the Conditional block to display messages for specific products, such as pre-order or backordered items.

• Go to SureCart → Checkout.
• Open the checkout form.
• Insert a Conditional block after the order summary.
• Add a condition based on Product(s).
• Select the product that should trigger the message.
• Click Set Rules.

• Inside the Conditional block, insert a Paragraph block.
• Enter the message you want customers to see (for example, pre-order details or delivery expectations).
• Click Update to save your changes.

When the selected product is added to the cart, the message will appear during checkout.

Expected Outcome

After configuring Conditional blocks, checkout fields and messages will appear dynamically based on the defined rules, providing a more context-aware checkout experience for customers.

Notes and Limitations

• Conditional blocks only affect the content placed inside them.
• Conditions are evaluated in real time during checkout.
• Multiple Conditional blocks can be used in the same checkout form.
