    Hello,

    first of all I have to mention that this is one of the best WordPress Plugins I have come across.

    My wish is to be able to have the metabox buttons from the order page in the order list as actions. I analyzed the PHP and tried to may manipulate a hook and place it into my functions php but failed miserably. Might there be a way to do this through the functions.php?

    Hello!

    Sorry unfortunately i don’t think that will be easily archived, if you are talking about the view button only the plugin already include a view pdf icon within each order in the order page so i don’t think you need to add it.

    If you are talking about the other buttons like print or email those buttons use JavaScript which at the same time require some variables that are provider in the order page, not in the order list page so adding those button directly in the order list page would be a pretty complex tax.

    I will add this in the todo list. One question though, could you tell me why you want to include these buttons in the order list page? like do you want to quickly email or print the pdfs? and what if these actions are included as bulk actions (most of them are already there actually) would that help solve the problem?

    Thank you for your quick answer. I am actually interested in having the E-Mail button on the orders list to be able to quickly send PDF’s as it can be done on the order page. It would save some steps to individually send the mail.

    What I also have to mention is that the view action button does not working I usually get blank page or an error page. But maybe this is due to a plugin incompatibility. Bulk editor works fine though.

    Let me know if this seems a good idea, I would be thrilled to have this function on the orders list.

    Ah thanks for the feedback the problem with that view button is that it only work for the first pdf template that you design, if i do the same for the email button it would have the same issue, but i think it would be possible to make these buttons configurable directly in the template settings of each template. This way you can configure what buttons of what template you want to include in the order list page i could even make the icon configurable so you can have for example one icon for emailing the template A and another for emailing the template B.

    I will add this to the todo list =)
