Plugin hides orders with status ‘trash’
-
This is a really great enhancement – but (always a but) unfortunately when activated you cannot see orders that have been placed into ‘trash’, even though they still show up as a row count in the menu eg. trash(2).
Deactivating the plugin lets orders with [post_status=trash] show up again, I’ve also confirmed this glitch with another relatively clean WP install with all other plugins deactivated. Same result.
FYI orders look perfectly fine in the DB tables and since they work fine with the plugin deactivated I don’t think the data is the issue.
As every other [post_status] is fine NOR can I find any other glitches on the page I don’t think this is a coding error, rather I suspect the looping code that is being modified to link products with the orders(to allow filtering) simply isn’t finding records with [post_status=trash].
Because all other order status works fine this suggests woocommerce handles records with [post_status=trash] slightly differently – though that’s way beyond my expertise.
This also explains why the menu still shows up a ‘trash’ count – the code here probably isn’t modified at all.
Admittedly this isn’t something many users would even worry about too much. However in my case the client will have back-end access (highly restricted) and this will be confusing.
So I’ve had to hard-code out the Woocommerce ‘trash’ references but obviously I’d prefer *not* to do that to woocommerce files. I’ve emailed the developer and are waiting to hear back – I’m happy to hard code in any required changes ??
