WooCommerce: Hide Specific Orders (e.g. On Hold) From My Account Orders Page

The customer’s WooCommerce My Account Orders page displays all their orders, no matter the “status” (completed, processing, on-hold, pending, etc.).

It may happen that you, as a WooCommerce store manager, need to hide certain orders, for example the “on-hold” ones, or all orders with a custom order status.

Thankfully, this is very easy with a few lines of PHP. Enjoy!

function bbloomer_exclude_status( $args ) {
	$statuses = wc_get_order_statuses();
	unset( $statuses['wc-on-hold'] ); // wc-completed, wc-processing, etc.
	$args['status'] = array_keys( $statuses );
	return $args;
}

Where to add custom code?

You should place custom PHP in functions.php and custom CSS in style.css of your child theme: where to place WooCommerce customization?

This code still works, unless you report otherwise. To exclude conflicts, temporarily switch to the Storefront theme, disable all plugins except WooCommerce, and test the snippet again: WooCommerce troubleshooting 101
