Delete order programmatically

Hi @acoustika,

To delete an order using a hook or function in WooCommerce, you can use the woocommerce_delete_shop_order function.

I also did a Google search and found some resources that could provide further help to you:

• https://ithemelandco.com/blog/bulk-delete-all-woocommerce-orders/
• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73072912/deleting-order-woocommerce-orders-via-api
• https://woo.com/document/installing-uninstalling-woocommerce/#uninstalling-woocommerce
• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24904413/how-to-delete-completed-orders-in-woocommerce-using-a-my-sql-query
• https://github.com/mauran/Woocommerce-delete-all-orders/blob/master/wooDelete.php

Please note that writing or providing custom code is not within the scope of our support policy. If you still need assistance, we recommend asking development questions on the #developers channel of the WooCommerce Community Slack. Many of our developers hang out there and will be able to offer insights into your question.

I wish I could help more, but hopefully, this gets you going in the right direction to get the job done.

We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – we’ll be here if and/or when you are ready to continue.

Hi Guys, I know it is already closed but it is ranking high when people searching for this stuff so let me provide some corrections.

In order to delete an order we need to use delete() method of WC_Order object, period.

$order->delete();

A little bit more detailed example here: https://rudrastyh.com/woocommerce/delete-order-programmatically.html
