Can 'customer' column be easily changed to 'company name' in reports? - woocommerce

Question

Is there a hook that I can use to change the customer column heading to the company name?

Answer 1

As mentioned in the comments there are no hooks you can use here as the Analytics pages are rendered via JavaScript.
The code snippet below will add a mutation observer checking if the table on the order analytics page is changing (as these headers are being added dynamically via JavaScript). Each time a change (mutation) is registered it checks for the 'Customer' header. If it is found it is changed to 'Company name'. Perhaps not the most elegant solution but it does work.
add_action( 'admin_footer', 'woocommerce_analytics_change_customer_header' );
function woocommerce_analytics_change_customer_header() {
if ( isset( $_GET['page'] ) && isset( $_GET['path'] ) ) {
if ( $_GET['page'] == 'wc-admin' && $_GET['path'] == '/analytics/orders' ) {
?>
<script>
jQuery( function( $ ) {
// select the target node
var target = document.querySelector('#woocommerce-layout__primary');
// create an observer instance
var observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutations) {
mutations.forEach(function(mutation) {
if ( $('th.woocommerce-table__header').length ) {
$('th.woocommerce-table__header').each(function(){
let $label = $(this).find('span');
if ( $label.text() == 'Customer' ) {
$label.text('Company name');
}
});
}
});
});
// configuration of the observer:
var config = { attributes: true, childList: true, characterData: true, subtree: true };
// pass in the target node, as well as the observer options
observer.observe(target, config);
});
</script>
<?php
}
}
}
This code snippet should be added to the functions.php of your child theme or via a plugin like Code Snippets.
