Research how extensions extend Single Product template

[gigitux]

We need to research how extensions extend the Single Product template.

As @dinhtungdu did for the Archive Templates, we have to limit our investigation to the extensions and themes on www.woocommerce.com

Also, this page could be a great starting point to see all the hooks available on the Single Product page.

Hook usage by extensions in WooCommerce.com:

woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_button	45

Also, the entire list of the hook used in the Single Product Page is visible here

As @dinhtungdu noticed, we can avoid adding compatibility with the hook woocommerce_sidebar. For the rest, we have to work on a compatibility layer. I think that the observations done on #8064 are the same here.

What do you think? @nerrad @Aljullu

Yes, it makes sense to me. My only thought is that given that for some blocks we will be using the PHP template for now (Add to Cart form, Product Gallery, etc.), I expect that some of those hooks will already be supported and will not need to be in the compatibility layer.

Yeah, I completely agree! I just added them for completeness. Also, the list will be helpful if/when we decide not to use the PHP template anymore 💪.

I'm going to close this issue! The research is done! 💪
