Adding Columns to the WooCommerce My Orders List

Time to start with our first Ask SkyVerge question of 2018 🙂 This question is from Houdayer:

Is there a way to add shipping information in the table at MyAccount > Orders?

Sure thing! We’re looking at the “Orders” menu in the my account page currently, which shows order number, date, status, total, and actions by default:

The woocommerce_my_account_my_orders_columns filter lets us add or adjust the columns included in this list, so we can add a new one for a shipping destination!

So our first step is to filter these columns, and add our new column in where we’d like. I’m going to loop through all existing columns and add them all to a new array so that I can put my new column where I’d like — after the status column:

/**
 * Adds a new column to the "My Orders" table in the account.
 *
 * @param string[] $columns the columns in the orders table
 * @return string[] updated columns
 */
function sv_wc_add_my_account_orders_column( $columns ) {

    $new_columns = array();

    foreach ( $columns as $key => $name ) {

        $new_columns[ $key ] = $name;

        // add ship-to after order status column
        if ( 'order-status' === $key ) {
            $new_columns['order-ship-to'] = __( 'Ship to', 'textdomain' );
        }
    }

    return $new_columns;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_my_account_my_orders_columns', 'sv_wc_add_my_account_orders_column' );

Now, you’ll see the column added to this page:

Not done, yet! We need some data for this column that will appear in every row. The woocommerce_my_account_my_orders_column_{$column_id} action fires to let you populate the column you just added with content, and gives us access to the order for that row, so we’ll use this hook next.

The column ID will be the array key you’ve added in the previous snippet (ship-to in my case).

I’ll take the order that’s given to me, and get the shipping details to display in my column. Fortunately, WooCommerce 3.0+ has a handy method to output the formatted shipping display to make this simple:

/**
 * Adds data to the custom "ship to" column in "My Account > Orders".
 *
 * @param \WC_Order $order the order object for the row
 */
function sv_wc_my_orders_ship_to_column( $order ) {

    $formatted_shipping = $order->get_formatted_shipping_address();
    echo ! empty( $formatted_shipping ) ? $formatted_shipping : '–';
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_my_account_my_orders_column_order-ship-to', 'sv_wc_my_orders_ship_to_column' );

This will now ensure that, if the order has a shipping address, I’ve included it in this column (while orders without a shipping address, like those with virtual items, show nothing):

That’s all you need 🙂 You can view the full snippet here or check it out below:
