WooCommerce: Assigning an endpoint to a custom template in my account pages

You can add this code to your theme's function.php:

class My_Custom_My_Account_Endpoint {
/**
 * Custom endpoint name.
 *
 * @var string
 */
public static $endpoint = 'special-page';
/**
 * Plugin actions.
 */
public function __construct() {
    // Actions used to insert a new endpoint in the WordPress.
    add_action( 'init', array( $this, 'add_endpoints' ) );
    add_filter( 'query_vars', array( $this, 'add_query_vars' ), 0 );
    // Change the My Accout page title.
    add_filter( 'the_title', array( $this, 'endpoint_title' ) );
    // Insering your new tab/page into the My Account page.
    add_filter( 'woocommerce_account_menu_items', array( $this, 'new_menu_items' ) );
    add_action( 'woocommerce_account_' . self::$endpoint .  '_endpoint', array( $this, 'endpoint_content' ) );
}
/**
 * Register new endpoint to use inside My Account page.
 *
 * @see https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_rewrite_endpoint/
 */
public function add_endpoints() {
    add_rewrite_endpoint( self::$endpoint, EP_ROOT | EP_PAGES );
}
/**
 * Add new query var.
 *
 * @param array $vars
 * @return array
 */
public function add_query_vars( $vars ) {
    $vars[] = self::$endpoint;
    return $vars;
}
/**
 * Set endpoint title.
 *
 * @param string $title
 * @return string
 */
public function endpoint_title( $title ) {
    global $wp_query;
    $is_endpoint = isset( $wp_query->query_vars[ self::$endpoint ] );
    if ( $is_endpoint && ! is_admin() && is_main_query() && in_the_loop() && is_account_page() ) {
        // New page title.
        $title = __( 'Special Page', 'woocommerce' );
        remove_filter( 'the_title', array( $this, 'endpoint_title' ) );
    }
    return $title;
}
/**
 * Insert the new endpoint into the My Account menu.
 *
 * @param array $items
 * @return array
 */
public function new_menu_items( $items ) {
    // Remove the logout menu item.
    $logout = $items['customer-logout'];
    unset( $items['customer-logout'] );
    // Insert your custom endpoint.
    $items[ self::$endpoint ] = __( 'Special Page', 'woocommerce' );
    // Insert back the logout item.
    $items['customer-logout'] = $logout;
    return $items;
}
/**
 * Endpoint HTML content.
 */
public function endpoint_content() {
    include('woocommerce/myaccount/special-page.php');
}
/**
 * Plugin install action.
 * Flush rewrite rules to make our custom endpoint available.
 */
public static function install() {
    flush_rewrite_rules();
}
}
new My_Custom_My_Account_Endpoint();
// Flush rewrite rules on plugin activation.
register_activation_hook( __FILE__, array( 'My_Custom_My_Account_Endpoint', 'install' ) );

If you don't know where is your theme's function.php:

1.Log in to the WordPress Admin interface
2.In the left sidebar, hover over Appearances, then click Theme Editor
3.In the right sidebar, click functions.php


Finally I could solve the problem using a snippet provided for the same people of WooCommerce (There are more tips in that page). For anyone interested, paste all the following code in functions.php:

function my_custom_endpoints() {
    add_rewrite_endpoint( 'special-page', EP_ROOT | EP_PAGES );
}

add_action( 'init', 'my_custom_endpoints' );

function my_custom_query_vars( $vars ) {
    $vars[] = 'special-page';

    return $vars;
}

add_filter( 'query_vars', 'my_custom_query_vars', 0 );

function my_custom_flush_rewrite_rules() {
    flush_rewrite_rules();
}

add_action( 'wp_loaded', 'my_custom_flush_rewrite_rules' );

I think this way allows more control to order/renaming the menu:

function my_custom_my_account_menu_items( $items ) {
    $items = array(
        'dashboard'         => __( 'Dashboard', 'woocommerce' ),
        'orders'            => __( 'Orders', 'woocommerce' ),
        //'downloads'       => __( 'Downloads', 'woocommerce' ),
        //'edit-address'    => __( 'Addresses', 'woocommerce' ),
        //'payment-methods' => __( 'Payment Methods', 'woocommerce' ),
        'edit-account'      => __( 'Edit Account', 'woocommerce' ),
        'special-page'      => 'Special Page',
        'customer-logout'   => __( 'Logout', 'woocommerce' ),
    );

    return $items;
}

add_filter( 'woocommerce_account_menu_items', 'my_custom_my_account_menu_items' );

In the following function I included the file to maintain some "order", but it also admits direct code.

Be sure to place the special-page.php file in the myaccount folder.

function my_custom_endpoint_content() {
    include 'woocommerce/myaccount/special-page.php'; 
}

add_action( 'woocommerce_account_special-page_endpoint', 'my_custom_endpoint_content' );

Important: Once did this, go to Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks and click "Save Settings" in order to flush rewrite rules (thanks @optimiertes)

First my-account/special-page/ should be myaccount/special-page/ in woocommerce 2.6+.

This solution is Incomplete and I am still working On…

You can use first this hook:

add_action( 'init', 'add_wc_endpoint' );
function add_wc_endpoint(){
    add_rewrite_endpoint( 'special-page', EP_ROOT | EP_PAGES );
}

Then filtering wc_get_templateto call your files when the request match your endpoint:

add_filter( 'wc_get_template', 'custom_vc_endpoint', 10, 5 );
function custom_vc_endpoint($located, $template_name, $args, $template_path, $default_path){

    if( $template_name == 'myaccount/special-page.php' ){
        global $wp_query;
        if(isset($wp_query->query['special-page'])){
            $located = get_template_directory() . '/woocommerce/myaccount/special-page.php';
        }
    }

    return $located;
}

If you use a child theme, replace get_template_directory() by get_stylesheet_directory()… Paste this code in function.php file of your active child theme or theme.

To avoid a 404 error "page not found", you will need to refresh rewrite rules adding to your code:

flush_rewrite_rules();

Update: Finally Dario (the OP) found a working solution. Look at his answer.

There is a better way to use a template in your custom page in woocommerce:

function my_custom_endpoint_content() {
    wc_get_template( 'myaccount/special-page.php' ); 
}

add_action( 'woocommerce_account_special-page_endpoint', 'my_custom_endpoint_content' );

this should work without using the wc_get_template filter.
