Name

WooCommerce Automatically Set the Complete Order Status

About

If you’d like to bypass the on-hold order status which either WooCommerce or the payment gateway the customer uses automatically sets on orders, and make it the Completed order status instead, then this guide is for you. Typically, store owners wont have the Order on-hold email active. Instead, they will have the Processing order or Completed order. It’s not usual that customers receive an email to tell them their order is on hold, so this solution resolves that. This solution also reduces admin overhead because your staff wont have to login and update each order with the Completed order status – it’s done automatically when the thank you page is triggered.

    This is exactly what I was looking for - I have a use case where processing needs to go to completed automatically, for anyone else just change 'on-hold' to 'processing' on line 12 and your done.
