Title: Draft Orders Last modified: September 15, 2025 --- # Draft Orders * Resolved [amlr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amlr/) * (@amlr) * [8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/draft-orders-4/) * Hi everyone, * Thanks for your help in advance. * After creating my new checkout with FunnelKit, I’ve lost WooCommerce’s native feature of notifying me about **draft orders**. * Is it possible to recover that option? **It’s not the same as the abandoned cart**— in abandoned cart I see the pending payments, but not the drafts. * Thanks!

If yes, please share the link to that addon to investigate and get back to you with the solution.ThanksTeam Funnelkit * Thread Starter [amlr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amlr/) * (@amlr) * [7 months, 4 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/draft-orders-4/#post-18643877) * Hi, * It’s simply a native feature of WooCommerce with Gutenberg blocks. As shown in the image, every time a customer reached the checkout with a product in their cart, filled in their details but then **didn’t click the “Pay” button and abandoned the page**, it created a “draft,” which I highlight in the photo. For example:** _Draft (1)_** * ![](https://i0.wp.com/i.postimg.cc/FRTppb1p/image.png?ssl=1) * This way, I could see if perhaps the customer abandoned the purchase because shipping costs were too high, if there was an issue with the shipping plugin to their country, or if they simply didn’t trust the payment method I have set up. * I want to emphasize that all of this happens **without clicking the “Pay” button**. If they click the “Pay” button but don’t complete the payment, it shows as “Pending payment” and also appears as an abandoned cart. * These are two different things. * Thank you. - This reply was modified 7 months, 4 weeks ago by [amlr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amlr/). - This reply was modified 7 months, 4 weeks ago by [amlr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amlr/). - This reply was modified 7 months, 4 weeks ago by [amlr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amlr/). * Thread Starter [amlr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amlr/) * (@amlr) * [7 months, 3 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/draft-orders-4/#post-18650518) * Hi, sorry to bother you again, but is there any update on this matter? To clarify the topic of “**draft orders**,” I’m sharing this link from WooCommerce where they explain it in detail: [https://woocommerce.com/document/managing-orders/order-statuses/](https://woocommerce.com/document/managing-orders/order-statuses/) * Plugin Support [Funnelkit Support](https://wordpress.org/support/users/supportfunnelkit/) * (@supportfunnelkit) * [7 months, 3 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/draft-orders-4/#post-18650617) * Hi [@amlr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amlr/), * Sorry for the delayed response. This seems to be a site-specific issue that needs a deeper investigation if it happens after enabling the Funnelkit Builder only. Please reach out to our [tech team here](https://funnelkit.com/support) with the more details to get the resolution.

Yes, we can see that in their official documentation, they said it is available only for block-based checkout pages. It will not work for the shortcode-based checkout pages. * As an alternative, we have a better solution using our [Funnelkit Automation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-marketing-automations/) to get the list of abandoned carts. You will see all the leads here [https://funnelkit.com/docs/autonami-2/carts/enable-cart-tracking/](https://funnelkit.com/docs/autonami-2/carts/enable-cart-tracking/) * And you can recover from there and run the automations on those carts. [https://funnelkit.com/docs/autonami-2/carts/set-up-abandoned-cart-automation/](https://funnelkit.com/docs/autonami-2/carts/set-up-abandoned-cart-automation/) * Kindly let us know if this works for you. * Thank you.
