Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 11:31 pm

If you have a WooCommerce store, you may have noticed that your order status is set to “Pending” by default. This is because WooCommerce needs to verify that the order is legitimate before it can be completed.

There are a few ways to change your order status from Pending to something else, depending on your needs.

If you want to cancel an order:

If you need to cancel an order, you can do so from the WooCommerce Orders page. Simply click on the order you want to cancel, and then click the “Cancel” button.

You will be prompted to confirm the cancellation, and then the order will be removed from your store.

If you want to complete an order:

If you want to mark an order as complete, you can do so from the WooCommerce Orders page. Simply click on the order you want to complete, and then click the “Complete” button.

You will be prompted to confirm the completion, and then the order will be marked as complete in your store.

PRO TIP: If you are using WooCommerce to manage your online store, you may occasionally need to change an order’s status from Pending to something else. For example, if a customer’s payment fails, you may need to change the order status to Cancelled.

There are two ways to change an order’s status in WooCommerce:

1. Go to WooCommerce > Orders and select the order you need to modify. Then, click the ‘Edit’ button next to the ‘Order Status’ column.

2. Select the new order status from the ‘Order Status’ dropdown menu and click ‘Save Order’.

Alternatively, you can bulk edit order statuses from the WooCommerce > Orders page. Simply select the orders you need to modify, select the new order status from the ‘Bulk Actions’ dropdown menu and click ‘Apply’.

If you want to change the status of an order:

If you need to change the status of an order for any other reason, you can do so from the WooCommerce Orders page.
