WooCommerce: Let Customers Complete a Processing Order

An order can be marked as “completed” only by the WooCommerce store manager – manually. In certain cases, this operation may be automatic i.e. for downloadable orders.

However, what if we want our customers to complete (confirm) their processing order instead? Well, this is quite easy: we display a “CONFIRM ORDER” button under My Account > Orders, and on click some code triggers the status change. Enjoy!

If the order is in “processing” status, the customer now sees a new “Confirm Order” button. On click, the order is automatically marked as “completed”!

            'name' => __( 'Confirm Order', 'woocommerce' )
        );

        $order = wc_get_order( $_GET['confirm_order'] );
		$order->update_status( 'completed', 'Order confirmed by customer' );
    }

Where to add custom code?

You should place PHP snippets at the bottom of your child theme functions.php file and CSS at the bottom of its style.css file. Make sure you know what you are doing when editing such files - if you need more guidance, please take a look at my guide "Should I Add Custom Code Via WP Editor, FTP or Code Snippets?" and my video tutorial "Where to Place WooCommerce Customization?"

Does this snippet (still) work?

Please let me know in the comments if everything went as expected. I would be happy to revise the snippet if you report otherwise (please provide screenshots). I have tested this code with Storefront theme, the WooCommerce version listed above and a WordPress-friendly hosting.

    Hello, Rodolfo. Great work as always!
    I’m trying to create a button “Click me to complete this order” and place this on a private page, on the frontend, that managers have access. I already have the order object on this page. Any idea on how to run the

    "$order->update_status( 'completed');

    on the click of a button?
    Thank you!

      Hi William, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is definitely possible, but I’m afraid it’s custom work. If you’d like to get a quote, feel free to contact me here. Thanks a lot for your understanding!

If you are writing code, please wrap it between shortcodes: [php]code_here[/php]. Failure to complying with this (as well as going off topic, not writing in English, etc.) will result in comment deletion. You should expect a reply in about 2 weeks - this is a popular blog but I need to get paid work done first.
