Custom Order Status

WooCommerce ships with a fixed set of order statuses, and many stores need more detail. A shop making bespoke products may want to mark an order as "Quality Check," "Packaging," or "Ready for Shipment." Custom Order Status lets you add those milestones, so your team and your customers can see where each order stands without guessing or sending extra messages.

You create statuses from a dashboard, assign them to orders, and set rules that move orders along when defined triggers occur. Custom statuses can send tailored emails to customers, and they appear in WooCommerce reports. You can keep some statuses visible only to your admin team. Developers can extend the plugin through hooks and filters, and it works with popular translation plugins.

Features

• Custom status creation: Design order statuses that match your own business processes, such as Quality Check, Packaging or Ready for Shipment, instead of relying only on the default WooCommerce options.
• Simple admin dashboard: Manage and assign statuses from an intuitive dashboard, which keeps order tracking straightforward for the people who run the store day to day.
• Automated status transitions: Set rules that update an order's status automatically when defined triggers occur, which reduces manual work and the errors that come with it.
• Customer email notifications: Send tailored email alerts when an order moves to a custom status, so customers stay informed about the progress of their purchase.
• WooCommerce reports integration: Include your custom statuses in WooCommerce sales and performance reports, so the analysis of your orders reflects the workflow you actually use.
• Flexible workflow management: Change your order processing steps as your business changes. Add, rename or adjust statuses without rebuilding the way your store handles orders.
• Visibility control: Choose which statuses customers can see and which stay visible only to your admin team, which allows discreet internal tracking when you need it.
• Multilingual and developer ready: Works with popular translation plugins for statuses and notifications in several languages, and includes hooks and filters so developers can extend its behavior.
