How can i get access to updated order data in this function? I am super confused.
I found this code here.
add_action ('save_post_shop_order',
function (int $postId, \WP_Post $post, bool $update): void{
// Ignore order (post) creation
if ($update !== true) {
return;
}
// Here comes your code...
},10,3);
Thanks in advance.
WORDPRESS HOOK
If you want to run the function you can use the edit_post_{$post->post_type} hook which is triggered only when a post is updated.
// run a function when the WooCommerce order is updated
add_action( 'edit_post_shop_order', 'edit_post_shop_order_callback', 99, 2 );
function edit_post_shop_order_callback( $post_ID, $post ) {
// gets the WC_Order object
$order = wc_get_order( $post_ID );
// get the data you want
$order_status = $order->get_status();
$billing_first_name = $order->get_billing_first_name();
// ...
}
The code has been tested and works. Add it to your active theme's functions.php.
WOOCOMMERCE HOOK
Otherwise you could use the woocommerce_update_order WooCommerce hook.
// run a function when the WooCommerce order is updated
add_action( 'woocommerce_update_order', 'woocommerce_update_order_callback', 99, 1 );
function woocommerce_update_order_callback( $order_id ) {
// gets the WC_Order object
$order = wc_get_order( $order_id );
// get the data you want
$order_status = $order->get_status();
$billing_first_name = $order->get_billing_first_name();
// ...
}
