structuring the site with native WooCommerce page templates and a custom theme framework:
🔑 Core Pages Sitemap

carousel.

Ajax filters.

times and conflicts:

WooCommerce Action Hook Blueprint
As a WordPress engineer, you can paste these action filters directly into your
child theme's functions.php to add premium checkout variables and discreet packaging
metadata:
Injecting Size Guide into Product Page Hooks
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'shesoft_inject_size_guide',
35 );
function shesoft_inject_size_guide() {
echo '<div class="size-guide-wrap">';
echo '<a href="#sizing-guide" class="size-guide-link">📐 View Fit Calculator</a>';
echo '</div>';
}
