I am still learning about hooks and filters, and I am having trouble understanding which of the following functions to use, and where to put it in the code. I think the first one would remove the billing phone number, and the second one would just make it non-required. Can you please let me know in which file/directory I should place this code, and if there are any brackets, tags, etc that I should next them in?</p> <p>add_filter('woocommerce_billing_fields', 'custom_woocommerce_billing_fields');<br /> function custom_woocommerce_billing_fields( $fields_array ) {<br /> unset($fields_array['billing_phone']);<br /> return $fields_array;<br /> }</p> <p>-----</p> <p>add_filter('woocommerce_billing_fields', 'custom_woocommerce_billing_fields');<br /> function custom_woocommerce_billing_fields( $fields_array ) {<br /> $fields_array['billing_phone']['required'] = false;<br /> return $fields_array;<br /> }</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
