Order Status History for WooCommerce

Descripció

Order Status History for WooCommerce (OSHWOO) speeds up your daily analysis and processing of orders. Unobtrusive visual cues in all the orders screens show when someone has ordered from your shop before, your (most) repeating customers, and spurts of unusual activity (like customers with due payments and cancellations).

Main features

  • A graphical add-on for WooCommerce. Simply install and you’re ready to go
  • For each Order in the Orders table, get additional data displayed, like: has a customer ordered before, repeatedness, and unusual behavior (e.g. due payments and cancellations)
  • The newly added Order history column is also sortable. The Shop Manager now can easily discern their most repeating customers, or those with the most issues, for example
  • Shows Order history statuses as color swatches in 3 different places: the Orders page, the Edit Order page, and the Users page
  • Status colors are fully customizable, including the default WooCommerce statuses. Many color themes also available, inspired from major shopping carts
  • Can work in conjunction with, or replace altogether, the default WooCommerce status swatches
  • Fully supports Guest, registered Customer, and mixed Guest / Customer Orders
  • Detailed reports of past Orders, purchased Products, and all notes sent to Customer or private, for any registered or Guest Customer
  • CSV export of Orders, Products, and Notes reports
  • Support of composite products within Reports
  • Multi-currency support, with some extra usability features
  • Translation-ready
  • Completely free, with no limitations. Donations welcome.

Captures

  • New sortable Orders History column, inside the WooCommerce > Orders page. The history of statuses is displayed via pictorial color swatches for each Order row.
  • Details of the new Order History meta-tab, inside the Edit Order page. The aggregate color swatches for the Customer are displayed top-right.
  • Customer Orders History page tab. Displays a detailed view of each placed Order, including aggregated totals for the status of all Orders. Export to CSV also available.
  • Detail of the Customer Products History page tab. Displays a consolidated view of all products purchased, and aggregated totals for each Order status. Export to CSV also possible.
  • Customer Notes History page tab. Displays a consolidated view of all order notes, including the note from customer, and all manually added by the operator notes to customer or in private.
  • New sortable Orders History column, inside the Users > All Users page. Can help recognize the most active Customers by the number of their purchases.
  • New Order Status Colors page, under the main WooCommerce menu, is the settings page of the plugin. Colors and other behavior can be easily customized from that page.
  • Themed statuses, with many color schemes inspired from other well-known shopping carts.

Instal·lació

Installing Order Status History for WooCommerce is straightforward. As with any other WP plugin, installation can be done either by searching the WP plugin repository, or via the “Plugins > Add New” screen in your WP Dashboard using the following steps:

  1. Download the plugin from wordpress.org
  2. Upload the ZIP file through the ‘Plugins > Add New > Upload’ screen in your WordPress Dashboard
  3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

PMF

Just had a sale, but its status isn’t showing up, and others seem randomly inaccurate. What’s going on?

Since version 1.8, the history queries are cached via transients, which dramatically improves speed and lowers DB calls during the display of the Orders and Users screens. The trade-off though is that the Orders history column information might be at times inaccurate, as is now rebuilt with some delay of up to 1 hour. If that’s an issue to you, the Bulk action -> Rebuild history cache allows updating the history cache manually.

Additionally, filter oshwoo_cache_ttl, (goes into functions.php), can help control the baseline of how long the cache stays fresh before going stale and rebuilding itself (default is 1h). Example usage: add_filter( 'oshwoo_cache_ttl', function(){ return 0.5; });

What is this plugin and for whom is it for?

Order Status History for WooCommerce enhances the Orders & Users screens. It can bring some useful customer historical data in a graphically intuitive way. Targeted toward Shop Managers in their daily decision-making and order fulfillment tasks.

Does everything work? Is it there a ‘Pro’ version?

There’s no ‘Pro’ version, nor a planned one. Everything works with no limitations, completely free of charge. No strings attached.

Is this plugin supported?

Yes, it’s supported in the WP forums, when time permits.

Acknowledgments

Wish to thank the Woocommerce Customers Order History plugin for becoming a motivational point to write this one from the ground up, with the hope of offering a better alternative in various aspects that felt lacking, according to this author.

Plugin functions perfectly as described. Appreciation for the developers. Keep it up! Although it would be nice to have some summary graphs / tables on dashboard or elsewhere... Recently I've been trying to find things like the total number of customers with more or less than X number of orders. customers with only failed orders, guest customers with repeat orders etc.. Maybe a list view with advance filters could work to start off with. Just a suggestion.

First off I dont really leave reviews for plugins. I appreciate this one so much though as a CRO specialist and marketer that I had to say thank you for making it. I love all the amazing features and its so useful in a variety of ways. I'd like to ask that you enable the ability to see the orders and products from those orders on the same page though as its helpful to see if someones first order was 1 of something and then sequential orders stayed at that or grew. There could be a summary at the top of the client history to show summary on one page as well including: 3 of orders, date of first order, average days between orders, average order value (if thats data your plugin has access to. I would gladly pay to see this info onsight versus what I currently do which is go to an external website to see this information which I pay $50 a month to use and would gladly pay you! One small UI thing...on customer order history you have tabs for order, products...its easy to miss and should be lower on the page so users see. I didnt see it was there for a while.
