In the ExpertHive theme there is a “Buy Now” button when clicking on listed Service. I want to change the name of that button and also add a custom link to it as I am using the external Booking Plugin “BookingPress” to enable Bookings. This means I am using the whole logic of HivePress (Marketplace, Listings, etc.) but I want users to book appointments via a button that redirects users to BookingPress.
As there already is the “Book Now” button, I just want to customize it so I can use it the way I just described, can you please help me with that? I cannot find it even in the File Manager of my Hosting Service so I could change the code. I already created a Child Theme.
In your described case, it would be easier to disable the Marketplace extension and create a custom attribute of the URL type, displaying it as a primary button. These resources can be helpful: How to add a WhatsApp button - HivePress Help Center, or a solution from this topic.
Please note that the Bookings extension will not pass the selected dates when clicking on such a link. So if you’re handling booking functionality externally, you can also disable Bookings.
If the price is hidden when using the Marketplace, you can also add it as a custom attribute and assign it to the primary button on both the listing page and the primary block.
I created a custom attribute of the URL type, so that a link can be put into the listing when creating one. The problem is, when I now click the button in the listing with the given code that is suggested on the help center to create a WhatsApp button, it automatically still opens WhatsApp Web.
Is there a way to change the code, so that the button opens up the link that was put in the attribute? and not the WhatsApp link?
