Woocommerce how to get order status?
If you are writing plugin (like me) under Woocommerce 2.0 to get a list of order of particular order status, you will find that it does not exists in wp_posts and wp_postmeta. Simply put: All order status strings (e.g. completed, failed, on-hold etc) are stored in wp_terms Using wp_terms.term_id, you can find your order ID in wp_term_relationships. In this table, order ID is called "object_id" You can now do a search on wp_posts using wp_term_relationships.object_id (wp_term_relationships.object_id is now post_id) You don't need to write SQL to do the above 3 steps, Wordpress has already provided similar functions to do this. They are get_term_by and get_objects_in_term . Sample code below: $status = get_term_by( 'slug', sanitize_title( $_POST['order_status'] ), 'shop_order_status' ); $s = get_objects_in_term($status->term_id, 'shop_order_status'); var_dump($s); It will return order IDs in array, like: array
