    Hi,
    I am trying to add a new order post column and I managed to do it.I am trying to update the post meta of the order.I used add_action hook with wpo_wcpdf_pdf_created and its updating the order meta.
    Can I restrict the order meta update only for order status “Processing”.
    In a nutshell, what I am trying to do is add an extra field to show Printed status for “Processing” status only.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mukhthar

    Hi! You can find more information about this hook and adding order meta in a recent thread here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/when-creating-pdf-invoice-i-need-to-update-post-meta/#post-11851786

    You can fetch the order status with

    
$status = $order->get_status();

    or in the case of that particular action hook:

    
$status = $document->order->get_status();

    Good luck!

    You can use the woocommerce_admin_order_actions_end action for this. If you need more help with this, I kindly suggest hiring a coder (codeable.io is a good resource for wordpress/woocommerce coders), customization like this are beyond what we can offer as part of free support for this plugin.
