Number of orders – how does it work?

WooCommerce uses the default WordPress post id as the order number. WordPress gives everything a unique post id (images, pages, posts, products, etc.) Since you may upload an image or add a post between orders, the post id would be incremented to the next available number and assigned to your order.

Thanks a lot for your reply! Is it a way to change the numbers myself?

There are several plugins that you can use. https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/search/woocommerce+sequential+order+numbers/

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi @npu2021

You can also try the Sequential Order Numbers Pro plugin from our marketplace.
