Hi, I have followed the instruction above to chage the meta key, however the EAN and label of product cannot show on frontend after changed, please check with the screen record. Thanks

I notice that after changed the meta key of EAN, all previous EAN data gone. How can I just change the label of the EAN at orders and order admin in backend? many thanks

How to display the EAN label at order admin not displaying the meta key? thanks

Hi, @chris-yau,

We will add an option for this in the next plugin release. Meanwhile, you can solve the task with this small PHP snippet:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_order_item_display_meta_key', function ( $display_key, $meta ) {
    return ( '_alg_ean' === $meta->key ? get_option( 'alg_wc_ean_title', __( 'EAN', 'ean-for-woocommerce' ) ) : $display_key );
}, 10, 2 );

P.S. Regarding “… all previous EAN data gone…” – simply set the “Advanced > Meta key” option to the previous value (default _alg_ean).

Please give it a try and let me know what you think.

Hi, @chris-yau,

Please update the plugin to the latest v4.8.9. Now it will use the “General > Title” option value for the order item meta labels. Please give it a try and let me know what you think.

Hi @algoritmika,

After updated to latest v4.8.9, the label works fine, many thanks for help and update.

Hi,

Happy to hear it’s solved. Please let me know if you will need anything else.
