Home & Garden Order Status Manager for WooCommerce helps you reduce “Where is my order?” tickets by turning order updates into clear, customer-friendly messages.
Instead of generic statuses, you get a ready-to-use Home & Garden workflow (preparing, restocking, ready to ship, shipped, appointment delivery, partial delivery, delivered, after-sales). Each status can display a plain-language explanation on the customer’s order page, so shoppers instantly understand what’s happening and what to expect next.
You can also add delivery details per order (carrier, tracking link, number of parcels, delivery type, estimated date, appointment date/time). When available, these details are automatically shown to the customer and can be included in the “status changed” email, using smart placeholders like <code>{tracking_url}</code>, <code>{appointment_datetime}</code>, and <code>{parcels_count}</code>.
Result: fewer support requests, fewer misunderstandings, and a smoother post-purchase experience — especially for bulky items, scheduled deliveries, and split shipments common in the Home & Garden sector.
Built for WooCommerce. Simple to configure. Designed for real Home & Garden logistics.

<h2>Custom WooCommerce Order Statuses Completely Integrated into your Workflow</h2>
The WooCommerce Order Status Manager allows you to create, edit, and delete custom order statuses and integrate them seamlessly into your WooCommerce order management flow. You can also edit core order statuses and trigger new order emails based on status changes.
Custom order statuses will be used in your orders list, and can even be integrated into the order actions or bulk actions for a completely seamless fulfillment workflow.

New order emails can also be triggered as an order status change notifier. You can trigger emails based on changes between custom statuses or core statuses so that customers and/or shop admins are always informed of order updates and changes.

<h3>Add New Order Statuses</h3>
You can add a new order status and select an icon to display in the orders list (which replaces the text badge for a status name). Action buttons can also be added if this will be used as “next status” by another status in your order flow. You can also add next statuses to determine which actions buttons should be displayed for this status.
<figure id="attachment_826572" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-826572" style="width: 950px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-new-status.png"><img class="size-large wp-image-826572" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-new-status.png?w=950" alt="WooCommerce Order Status Manager: Create a Status" width="950" height="594" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-826572" class="wp-caption-text">Create a Status</figcaption></figure>
<h3>Edit Core Statuses</h3>
You can edit a core WooCommerce order status to add “next statuses”. For example, you can add a custom status as a next status for “processing” orders, which will display your custom status action button for any processing order.
This makes order management simple, fast, and easy to use, as custom statuses are completely integrated into the orders workflow.
<h3>Add New Order Emails</h3>
New order emails can be added based on order status changes, including changes with custom order statuses. When these emails are added, they can be edited and enabled in your WooCommerce email lists, or the template can be overridden in your theme for greater control over the content.

<h3>Display Status Information to Customers</h3>
Customers can be frustrated by order management when they don’t know where their orders are. While your statuses are meant to help in your fulfillment workflow, displaying a status like “Manufactured” or “Assembling” doesn’t tell customers anything.
You can now set a description for any status (including core statuses!) that will be shown to customers when they mouse over the order status.
<figure id="attachment_159153" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-159153" style="width: 550px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-recent-orders.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-159153" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-recent-orders.png?w=550" alt="WooCommerce Order Status Manager Orders List" width="550" height="380" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-159153" class="wp-caption-text">Customer View</figcaption></figure>
<h3>Complete Order Status Management</h3>
Rather than adding one-off statuses that don’t integrate with the rest of your emails, statuses, or fulfillment process, you can now completely embed custom statuses into your order management scheme. Use custom icons, action buttons, and new emails to tailor orders to your store and helpt to automate your order management.
