问题
In WooCommerce, I would like to add a new custom field to order details. I now that I can use use the code below to create a new custom field 'referenceNumber' and adds in it "ordercreated" value:
update_post_meta($order_id, 'referenceNumber', 'ordercreated']);
What I would like is to make that through checkout once an order is placed.
But it doesn't work it doesn't add a new custom field to order details page and don't add the value 'ordercreated', as you can see in this screenshot:
So the question is how to add a custom field when an order is placed in WooCommerce?
回答1:
To add a custom field to an order you can use:
WordPress
update_post_meta()
function (from an order id):$order_id = $order->get_id(); // If needed update_post_meta($order_id, 'referenceNumber', 'ordercreated'); // add and save the custom field
WooCommerce
WC_Data
update_meta_data()
method (from the order object or the order id):$order = wc_get_order( $order_id ); // If needed: Get the WC_Order object from the order Id update_meta_data('referenceNumber', 'ordercreated'); // Add the custom field $order->save(); // Save the data
Where referenceNumber
is the meta key and ordercreated
is the meta value. Both works.
Now to add a custom field to an order when customer place an order, you can use:
woocommerce_checkout_create_order
action hook (before order data is saved - used to adjust order data before it's saved):add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_create_order', 'add_custom_field_on_placed_order', 10, 2 ); function add_custom_field_on_placed_order( $order, $data ){ $order->update_meta_data( 'referenceNumber', 'ordercreated' ); }
woocommerce_checkout_update_order_meta
action hook (order already exist - used to add custom meta data):add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_create_order', 'add_custom_field_on_placed_order', 10, 2 ); function add_custom_field_on_placed_order( $order_id, $data ){ $order->update_meta_data( 'referenceNumber', 'ordercreated' ); }
woocommerce_checkout_order_created
action hook (order already exist - to trigger an action or also to add custom meta data):add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_order_created', 'add_custom_field_on_placed_order', 10, 2 ); function add_custom_field_on_placed_order( $order_id, $data ){ $order->update_meta_data( 'referenceNumber', 'ordercreated' ); // Add the custom field $order->save(); // Save data (as order exist yet) }
Or:
add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_order_created', 'add_custom_field_on_placed_order' ); function add_custom_field_on_placed_order( $order ){ update_post_meta($order->get_id(), 'referenceNumber', 'ordercreated'); }
Code goes in functions.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.
