Pack Orders
Changelog
Every release of Pack Orders for WooCommerce, newest first. Features marked Flow are part of the paid add-on; everything else ships in the free plugin on WordPress.org.
1.0.0 — 28 June 2026
The first public release. Requires WordPress 6.5+, WooCommerce 7.0+, and PHP 7.4+. Works with both High-Performance Order Storage and the legacy order storage.
- Mobile-first packing checklist — a distraction-free page built to use one-handed on a phone, with large tap targets.
- Per-item packed state — tick items individually, Mark all packed, or Reset all. Saved instantly and shared across every device and user.
- Flag missing items — mark an item Awaiting and the order shows blocked, so you never ship it short.
- Awaiting list — one screen listing every item currently awaiting stock across all your orders.
- Derived packing status — each order reads as To pack, Partly packed, Awaiting, or Packed, calculated from the items, never guessed.
- Orders-screen column — a read-only packing-status column on the native WooCommerce Orders screen, clickable straight through to the packing page.
- Order edit meta box — a “Packing” panel on the single-order screen showing status and progress, with a button to open the packing page.
- Configurable statuses — choose which order statuses count as “needs packing” (defaults to Processing).
- Never changes your WooCommerce order status — packing is a parallel layer.
Flow is a separately available upgrade for stores that re-order stock from suppliers. It builds on everything you flag Awaiting and adds:
- Suppliers — a supplier directory with email, phone, account number and notes; assign products one at a time or in bulk.
- Re-order list — every awaiting item grouped by supplier and ready to order. Export a CSV, email the supplier, or print it.
- Supplier-order batches — turn a re-order into a tracked supplier order (draft → ordered → received), then mark items received as deliveries arrive.
- Auto-flag backorders — backordered items are marked Awaiting automatically as orders come in, with a one-time scan for existing orders.
- Pick list — one consolidated gather list across every order, so you pick each product once instead of hopping between orders.
