Description
Moving an order along its statuses usually means opening it, finding the status box,
changing it and saving — one order at a time. Wexofy Quick Order Status skips that: the
coloured status badge WooCommerce already shows in the orders list becomes a dropdown
you can change without leaving the screen.
- Click the badge, pick a new status, it saves instantly over AJAX — no page reload.
- Reads every status WooCommerce itself returns (
wc_get_order_statuses()), so
custom statuses added by your shipping, payment or subscription plugins show up
automatically. Nothing is hard-coded. - Saves through the same
WC_Order::update_status()flow as WooCommerce’s own order
screen, so status-change hooks, emails and stock adjustments other plugins rely on
keep firing exactly as before. - A failed save reverts the dropdown to its previous value and shows why.
- Works with classic (post-based) orders and High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS).
- No settings screen — install it and the dropdown is just there.
The plugin is completely free and fully functional. It makes no external requests and
needs no account or licence key.

FAQ
-
Does it need WooCommerce?
-
Yes. It only adds the dropdown to the WooCommerce orders list.
-
Does it send status-change emails and adjust stock?
-
Yes. It uses the same
WC_Order::update_status()call as WooCommerce’s own order screen, so everything hooked to a status change still runs. -
Does it work with HPOS?
-
Yes — both classic post-based orders and High-Performance Order Storage.

Changelog
1.0.2
- Renamed to “Wexofy Quick Order Status for WooCommerce” (slug: wexofy-quick-order-status).
- Internal prefixes changed to
wxqos.
1.0.1
- Fixed: clicking the status dropdown opened the order instead of the dropdown.
WooCommerce’s own orders-list script treats a click anywhere in a row as “open
this order” unless the click target is a link, button, or carries ano-link
class — the dropdown now carries that class.
1.0.0
- First release: inline, colour-coded order-status dropdown on the WooCommerce orders
list (classic post-based orders and HPOS), saved by AJAX with no page reload.
