The WooCommerce My Account page is an essential part of any WooCommerce store. It has always been one of the requested feature by designers and developers to customize the WooCommerce My Account page. The ‘My Account’ page has to be be well-designed and easy to navigate for your users. And making the WooCommerce account management system more attractive also represents your dedication to your customers and business.

By default, the My Account page contains a WooCommerce shortcode. In the example below, you can see that the WooCommerce My Account page looks quite bland, which might deter most users from staying in your website for long.

The default account management tabs includes information such as –

  • Dashboard
  • Orders
  • Downloads
  • Addresses
  • Account details
  • Logout

Elementor doesn’t have the options to customize the interface of the WooCommerce My Account page, add new tabs, or change the tab style. That’s why CoDesigner came up with exciting widgets to design the layout, change content, and add custom tab in Woocommerce My Account page.

CoDesigner features 2 intuitive widgets to customize the WooCommerce My Account page –

  1. My Account (Free)
  2. My Account Advanced (Premium) – it has an additional feature to add new tabs.

My Account Advanced widget by CoDesigner is easy to set up and design. You can add custom tab in WooCommerce My Account page without writing a single code. Also, if you only wish to design the My Account page then the free version of the CoDesigner My Account widget can get the job done. Whether you are using the free or premium widget, you will get an error-free experience to achieve what you need in just minutes.

In this article, you will see the steps to design, customize, and add custom tab in WooCommerce My Account page. The design and customization options for both widgets are similar, so you will also have the idea to design and customize the free version of My Account WooCommerce Elementor.
