WooCommerce comes with several shortcodes which can be used to insert content inside posts and pages. The following shortcodes are inserted into pages upon installation and therefore shouldn’t need to be used anywhere else:
- [woocommerce_cart] – shows the cart page
- [woocommerce_checkout] – shows the checkout page
- [woocommerce_pay] – shows the checkout pay page
- [woocommerce_thankyou] – shows the order received page
- [woocommerce_order_tracking] – shows the order tracking form
- [woocommerce_my_account] – shows the user account page
- [woocommerce_edit_address] – shows the user account edit address page
- [woocommerce_view_order] – shows the user account view order page
- [woocommerce_lost_password] – shows the lost password page
You can add shortcodes to a post or page easily via the shortcode shortcut button in the post editor:
Super shortcode shortcut button
The following shortcodes can be used anywhere you want:
Recent products ↑ Back to Top
Lists recent products – useful on the homepage. The ‘per_page’ shortcode determines how many products to show on the page and the columns attribute controls how many columns wide the products should be before wrapping.
[recent_products per_page="12" columns="4"]
Featured Products ↑ Back to Top
Works exactly the same as recent products but displays products which have been set as “featured”. In this example, the shortcode is saying show 12 featured products in 4 columns.
[featured_products per_page="12" columns="4"]

[product id="99"] [product sku="FOO"]
*If the product isn’t showing, make sure it isn’t set to Hidden in the Catalog Visibility.
