I can't seem to find any documentation on this so maybe someone here can help. I have been adding all my WooCommerce hooks to my functions.php file but I would rather have all of them in a separate file to keep things tidy. Obviously I will need another php file for these but how do I link it to the functions.php file so that the code runs as it does now? Thanks

just create new file with your woocommerce hooks code name anything what u want. Ex. woocommercehook.php and place file in theme folder.

in function.php file just include your woocommercehook.php file at last.

include("woocommercehook.php");

Done. all work same as early.

The PHP include/include_once and require/require_once will work fine. However, create another file with your hooks( woo-hooks.php ) and use WP get_template_directory to require the file. 

require get_template_directory() . '/woo-hooks.php';

  • Why use require get_template_directory() . '/woo-hooks.php'; over include("woocommercehook.php"); ? – Reece Dec 08 '17 at 11:34
  • The require() function is identical to include(), except that it handles errors differently. If an error occurs, the include() function generates a warning, but the script will continue execution. The require() generates a fatal error, and the script will stop.
