WooCommerce 10.6.1: Dot Release

calendar_today March 12, 2026 person Brian Coords domain woocommerce

WooCommerce 10.6.1 has been released.

WooCommerce 10.6.1 is a maintenance release fixing issues including attribute validation in the Add to Cart block, payment gateway ordering in settings, and shipping address field display.

Current Stable Tag

👉 WooCommerce 10.6.2

  • Released — March 12, 2026

What’s in this release

Fixed attribute options being incorrectly disabled in the Add to Cart with Options block for variable products whose attribute slugs contain hyphens. The issue occurred because PHP passes attribute names as slugs (e.g., some-name) while the Store API returns labels with spaces (e.g., some name), causing strict comparisons to fail. The fix updates normalizeAttributeName() to replace hyphens with spaces, ensuring consistent normalization across all comparison points. #63647

Newly installed payment gateways now appear above offline payment methods instead of being placed at the bottom of the list. Previously, installed gateways were buried below others, preventing them from being expanded by default on checkout. The updated placement logic inserts new gateways above the offline payment group unless merchants have customized the ordering. #63648

Shipping package titles in the shortcode now displays as “Shipment” instead of “Shipment 1” when only one package is present. The get_shipping_package_name() method now receives the total package count, allowing it to conditionally name single packages as “Shipment” while multiple packages continue to show numbered labels like “Shipment 1” and “Shipment 2”. #63649
