How to add prefix to Order Numbers?

Hi there ??

I could find a guide on the internet that will work for you. I’ve tried it myself and it worked great!

Here is the link:

Hope that helps ??

Thanks @gabrielfuentes – how do I access the .php file to amend please? Where do I go for this please?

Thank you.

I normally recommend using the Code Snippet plugin in order to add custom PHP code into your site without having to touch the functions.php file. Here is a link on how to use the Code Snippet plugin:

Let me know how it goes!

Thanks @gabrielfuentes

So if I add the following code, in to the Code Snippets plugin, then it should work?

add_filter( 'woocommerce_order_number', 'change_woocommerce_order_number' );

function change_woocommerce_order_number( $order_id ) {
    $prefix = 'VK/';
    $suffix = '/TS';
    $new_order_id = $prefix . $order_id . $suffix;
    return $new_order_id;
}

Yep, it should!

Please kindly note that you have to activate the code in the Code Snippet plugin in order for it to run.

Thanks @gabrielfuentes

Works perfectly! Thank you so much.

That’s wonderful. Happy to help ??
