## Beschreibung

Add a checkout question for the customer’s date of birth, and enforce a minimum 
age. The customer cannot checkout if their given date of birth means they are younger
than the minimum age.

### Requirements

 * WooCommerce 3.0 oder höher
 * PHP 5.6 oder höher

### Privacy

The customer’s date of birth is recorded, so that transactions can be audited for
compliance with minimum age legislation. The customer’s date of birth is transmitted
in order confirmation and notification emails. This information is not shared with
any other parties.

## FAQ

### How can I set the minimum age?

The default minimum age is 18. You can change it the WooCommerce settings:

WooCommerce > Settings > Minimum Age > Minimum age

### How can I change the order of the date fields?

The default order of the birth date fields is day, month, year. You can choose a
different layout in the settings:

WooCommerce > Settings > Minimum Age > Date layout

### Can I show the date of birth question conditionally?

There is a filter hook `minimum_age_woo_show_question` that allows developers to
hide the date of birth question if it isn’t required, e.g. only show for products
in certain categories. It accepts a single boolean parameter, and returns a boolean:
true to show the question, otherwise false.

Staring July 1 2021 for online shops in The Netherlands when selling alcohol age
verification is mandatory. This is exactly what I needed, simple and effective. 
Thank you for providing!

### 󠀁[Great plugin but needs a translation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-but-needs-a-translation/)󠁿

 [Gilles](https://profiles.wordpress.org/alizesonline/) 15. April 2021

Great plugin, it is light and it works as expected. But there is an urgent need 
to have the customer form and the errors translated to various languages. I updated
the file „class.Checkout.php“ but this is something I have to do every time there
is an update. Please use po/mo files instead!
