Woocommerce Custom Order Action and Order Update WebHook problem - woocommerce

i'm trying to solve this issue for weeks, have tried everything.
I have a Custom Order Action in my order admin panel like this:
function manage_actions( $actions ) {
$actions['wc_my_custom_action'] = 'My Custom Action';
return $actions;
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_order_actions', 'manage_actions');
function custom_action_function( $order ) {
update_post_meta( $order->id, 'Custom_Meta', 'Value' );
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_order_action_my_custom_action', 'custom_action_function' );
This works fine, if i open an order and then click on the 'My Custom Action' in the actions menu the 'Custom_Meta' key value pair is added to the order.
Now i have an Order Update WebHook (using API v3) set up and unfortunately it triggers before the 'custom_action_function' function runs so i always get the payload of the order without the new meta tag. I have tried everything i can to add the meta data prior to the webhook being fired, does anyone have an idea on how to accomplish this? Thanks

How to hide some Custom Fields from Woocommerce Admin order page

When logged in as an admin and looking at an Order in Woocommerce, there's a section with all the Custom Fields. Out of the whole list I only want it to display two of them. How do I hide the rest from this view? I don't want to delete them, but just hide from this view.
For every custom field you want hidden, add the following 4 lines of code to functions.php or using Snippets plugin:
add_filter('is_protected_meta', 'my_is_protected_meta_filter1', 10, 2);
function my_is_protected_meta_filter1($protected, $meta_key) {
return $meta_key == 'automatewoo_cart_id' ? true : $protected;
}
If you want to hide more than one, add the lines above again and change 'my_is_protected_meta_filter1' to 'my_is_protected_meta_filter2', etc
if you’re using ACF pro, there is a hook you can use to remove the field on the back end, but it’s not something that’s documented..
You could use a hook to remove specific field if is_admin() returns true.
You may need to play with this a bit to get it to work, the ACF hook is
acf/get_fields
So, for example:
add_filter('acf/get_fields', 'your_function_name', 20, 2);
function your_function_name($fields, $parent) {
// remove the fields you don't want
return $fields;
}
$fields can be a nested array of fields => sub_fields.
You need to set the priority > 10 to run after the internal ACF filter
For orders in Woocommerce the post type is 'shop_order', so your code should be:
add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', 'remove_shop_order_meta_boxe', 90 );
function remove_shop_order_meta_boxe() {
remove_meta_box( 'postcustom', 'shop_order', 'normal' );
}

Woocommerce - Remove fields from woocommerce_form_field including validation

I am trying to customise the Woocommerce myaccount page, in particular the edit address page.
I want to display both the shipping + billing address forms on a single page. Ideally, in a single form with a one save button. I also need to remove a lot of the fields, so that it's a much simpler form of just an address (no name, company, etc).
I have implemented the code found on This Answer. It works nicely in that it shows both forms. However, I cannot remove the fields from the forms. If I try code like this:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_billing_fields' , 'custom_override_billing_fields' );
add_filter( 'woocommerce_shipping_fields' , 'custom_override_shipping_fields' );
function custom_override_billing_fields( $fields ) {
unset($fields['billing_country']);
unset($fields['billing_company']);
unset($fields['billing_first_name']);
unset($fields['billing_last_name']);
unset($fields['billing_phone']);
unset($fields['billing_email']);
return $fields;
}
function custom_override_shipping_fields( $fields ) {
unset($fields['shipping_country']);
unset($fields['shipping_company']);
unset($fields['shipping_first_name']);
unset($fields['shipping_last_name']);
return $fields;
}
It doesn't work, the fields are no longer shown but the form does not save on click... it just redirects to /my-account/edit-address/billing/ - and doesn't save. (the same form shown on this page doesn't save either).
I've also tried:
foreach ( $billing_fields as $key => $field ) :
if($key != 'billing_first_name' && $key != 'billing_last_name') :
woocommerce_form_field( $key, $field, $userMeta[$key][0] );
endif;
endforeach;
This removes the field from displaying, BUT the validation still exists - and any filter code I add to functions using
woocommerce_checkout_fields to remove the validation doesn't seem to affect this form at all.
Is there a way to either:
Remove fields from this form generated by woocommerce_form_field including the validation?
Create a custom form that allows me to set the input fields manually in the code, and update any fields that are there, ignoring the validation from Woocommerce completely?
This should work 100%. You need to state whether the fields you are removing is from billing or shipping and this is done by adding the ['billing'] or ['shipping'], whichever it is.
After this, adding the function directly to woocommerce_checkout_fields will apply both for billing and shipping.
For phone and company fields you can disable it in admin panel itself, do it.
Edit: And yes, all validation that was involved with the fields in the past will be removed. You can then apply any validation you need.
add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields' , 'brandimagemarketer_remove_billing_fields_checkout' );
function brandimagemarketer_remove_billing_fields_checkout( $fields ) {
unset($fields['billing']['billing_country']);
unset($fields['billing']['billing_first_name']);
unset($fields['billing']['billing_last_name']);
unset($fields['billing']['billing_email']);
unset($fields['shipping']['shipping_country']);
unset($fields['shipping']['shipping_first_name']);
unset($fields['shipping']['shipping_last_name']);
unset($fields['shipping']['shipping_email']);
return $fields;
}

Fire function when Stripe has error in WooCommerce

I am trying to fire a custom function when a credit card error occurs in the WooCommerce checkout flow.
I seem to be able to get standard woo errors by using but it seems that the stripe plugin does not us woocommerce_add_error
add_filter( 'woocommerce_add_error', 'my_woocommerce_add_error' );
I found the following hook in the WooCommerce Stripe documentation, but I can't seem to get it to work with add_action
wc_gateway_stripe_process_payment_error ($error, $order) – Called when
an error occurs during the process payment event.
add_action( 'wc_gateway_stripe_process_payment_error', 'test_this' );
What am I missing? Is there another filter or hook that I should be using?
As per documentation https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/stripe/ this hook take 2 params $error, $order so you have to tell it to WordPress:
add_action( 'wc_gateway_stripe_process_payment_error', 'test_this', 10, 2 );
function test_this($error, $order) {
// something
}
It's working fine on my side
The only way I could figure out how to do this is by watching for dod inserts on the dom. This is the code I used below.
Note: You should probably use mutated events these days but for some reason, I couldn't figure it out.
$(document).on('DOMNodeInserted', function(e) {
if ( $(e.target).hasClass('woocommerce-error') ) {
console.log('stripe input error');
}
});

How do you remove or change the functionality of the Publish button on a custom WordPress post?

I have a custom post type and need keep the post status from getting set to 'Published' when you click the Publish button. Instead, it should work like the Save Draft button. So I either need to figure out how to just remove the Publish button so the user's can only click Save Draft our preferably, update the Publish button functionality so it doesn't set the post to publish.
You can use wordpress action hooks to modify default behaviors.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_action
In your case, you want to use the 'publish_post' hook.
So you can do
function dont_publish( $post_ID )
{
if(get_post_type($post_ID) == 'your_custom_type'){
exit;
}
}
//the dont_publish function will be called after the publish button is clicked
add_action( 'publish_post', 'dont_publish' );
The way it is above, nothing will happen at all if the publish button is clicked, but you can play around with the dont_publish function to get the results you want.
#PhoenixWing156 was close but one little change so the the other post types get updated as usual.
function dont_publish( $data , $postarr ) {
if($data['post_type'] == 'custom_post_type') {
$data['post_status'] = 'draft';
}
return $data;
}
add_filter('wp_insert_post_data' , 'dont_publish' , '99', 2);
The wp_insert_post_data hook is called before information about a post is saved to the database.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/wp_insert_post_data
You can try:
function dont_publish( $data , $postarr )
{
if($data['post_type'] == 'custom_post_type'){
$data['post_status'] = 'draft';
return $data;
}
}
add_filter('wp_insert_post_data' , 'dont_publish' , '99', 2);
WordPress provides the remove_meta_box() function exactly for this purpose.Just add this below code:-
add_action( 'admin_menu', function () {
remove_meta_box( 'submitdiv', 'Your_custom_post_type', 'side' );
} );
You could also disable the default saving metabox and add you own.
This is not documented well in the developer docs of wordpress.
To do this you have to hook into the "add_meta_boxes"-hook and in the hooked function yo have to call remove_meta_box('submitdiv','your-cpt','side');
The code should be something like this:
function your_cpt_metaboxes(){
remove_meta_box('submitdiv','your-cpt','side');
...
}
add_action('add_meta_boxes','function your_cpt_metaboxes');
your-cpt has to be changed to the name of your cpt of course.
I was also searching for this handy snippet and found it in the plugin Awesome Support.
The original saving metabox code can be found in /wp-admin/includes/metaboxes.php .
Just search for post_submit_meta_box (in WP 5.4 on line 22).

Getting hold of metadata when creating a post in WordPress

I am using the save_post action to inspect a metadata field in a custom post and take some action on that value. This is the essential guts of how I am doing it:
add_action('save_post', 'my_save_post');
function my_save_post($post_id)
{
// Check if not autosaving, processing correct post type etc.
// ...
// Get the custom field value.
$my_field_value = get_post_meta($post_id, 'my_field', true);
// Do some action
// ...
}
This works fine when updating the post through the admin page. However, when first creating the post, the my_field_value is always empty. The field does get saved correctly, but this action trigger does not seem to be able to see it, nor any other custom field values.
I would like the action to be performed on all posts of this type created, and I will be importing many through the CSV Imported plugin. Even then, the custom fields do get imported correctly, and the action trigger does get fired for each row imported, but the save_post action still cannot see the custom field value.
So far as I can see from documentation, the post has already been created by the time this action fires, so I should always be able to see that custom metafield.
The answer, it seems, is in the order in which things happen. When creating a post from a form, the custom fields are all collected by the appropriate actions and added to the post before my save_post action fires. This means my trigger is able to see those custom field values.
When importing from CSV, the basic post is created first, and then the custom metafields are added. The save_post trigger fires on the first creation, before the metafields are added, and so the custom field data is not visible to the save_post action.
My solution was to catch the updates of the metadata using the updated_post_meta and added_post_meta actions as well as the save_post action:
add_action('updated_post_meta', 'my_updated_post_meta', 10, 4);
add_action('added_post_meta', 'my_updated_post_meta', 10, 4);
function my_updated_post_meta($meta_id, $post_id, $meta_key, $meta_value)
{
// Make sure we are handling just the meta field we are interested in.
if ($meta_key != 'my_custom_field') return;
if (wp_is_post_revision($post_id)) return;
if (get_post_type($post_id) != 'my_post_type') return;
if (trim($meta_value) == '') return;
// Do my custom task (linking this post to a parent post in a different
// post type). This is the same task performed by the save_post action.
my_link_product_track($post_id, trim($meta_value));
}
That is essentially what I do, and it seems to work well. I do encapsulate all the above into a custom class in the theme, and don't recommend using global scope variables as shown here, but this is just to show the method.
You should look at using $post->ID instead of $post_id -
$my_field_value = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'my_field', true);
get_post_meta in the Codex
EDIT:
Could you do something like this?
if($post->ID == ''){
$pid = $post_id;
} else {
$pid = $post->ID;
}
//$pid = $post->ID or $post_id, whichever contains a value
$my_field_value = get_post_meta($pid, 'my_field', true);
something that looks for a value in $post->ID and $post_id, and uses whichever one isn't blank?
