WooCommerce: Add First & Last Name to My Account Register Form

Here’s yet another useful PHP snippet – and a mini-plugin alternative with super simple settings – that adds the Billing First Name and Billing Last Name to the Registration Form on the WooCommerce My Account page.

By default, the WooCommerce customer Registration Form only displays the email, username, and password fields (unless username and password are set to “automatically generate“, in which case only the email input field will be visible); by adding more billing and/or shipping fields to the form we can of course capture more information about each customer, so that you can do your background checks or allow them to save time at their next purchase.

Either way, enjoy!
