WLU Custom Order Status for WooCommerce

by weblevelup

Description

Are the default WooCommerce order statuses (“Processing”, “Completed”, “On Hold”) not enough for your unique fulfillment process?

WLU Custom Order Status for WooCommerce allows you to build a tailor-made order management system. Easily create new custom order statuses and inject beautiful status colors into your WooCommerce admin. Visually manage your fulfillment pipeline at a glance and keep your customers informed with elegant frontend colored status pills!

🚀 Core Features

Create Custom Statuses: Add brand new custom order statuses tailored to your exact workflow (e.g., “Awaiting Shipment”, “Manufacturing”, “Ready for Pickup”).
Admin Color Injection: Assign custom colors to your statuses. These colors inject directly into the standard WooCommerce Orders list, making it easy to see your fulfillment pipeline at a glance.
Customer Dashboard Pills: Display your custom colored status “pills” directly on the frontend in the customer’s “My Account > Orders” table.
Edit Core Statuses: Safely override the colors and settings of default WooCommerce statuses.
