HI Ajay,

Thanks for posting that code above, I wanted to change that as well.

Question:
Do you have code to change the WooCommerce Checkout required fields error message that says:

“Required form fields are not filled or invalid”?

I would like to add some additional text in there to tell visitors: “Did you check the box to agree to our terms and conditions?”

I feel that a lot of people may miss seeing that little check box down at the bottom and it’s probably good to point that out for them. 🙂

Many thanks!
