Track the order details that matter to your business
WooCommerce’s default order screen covers the basics — but most stores need to track more. Whether it’s a gift message, an internal fulfillment note, or a custom reference number, Admin Custom Order Fields lets you add exactly the fields your workflow requires, directly on the order edit screen.
Who it’s for
Ideal for store owners who need to capture or track extra order information beyond what WooCommerce includes by default — especially useful for stores with custom fulfillment processes, internal notes, or unique reporting needs.
What you get
- Add unlimited custom fields. Create as many fields as your store needs, right on the order edit screen.
- Support for multiple field types. Use text fields, dropdowns, checkboxes, and more to match the kind of data you’re collecting.
- Admin-only or customer-visible fields. Choose whether a field is for internal use only, or visible to the customer on their order confirmation and account pages.
- Searchable and exportable. Custom field data can be used alongside your existing order search and export tools, so it’s never siloed away from the rest of your order data.
How it works
Once installed, you’ll create your custom fields from a simple settings screen — choosing the field name, type, and visibility. From then on, those fields appear automatically on every order, ready for your team (or your customers, if you choose) to fill in as part of your normal order workflow.
