When should an order move to Completed? Order Status Control for WooCommerce lets shop administrators choose a completion rule. WooCommerce normally completes downloadable products automatically, while virtual products are not handled the same way by default.

Keep the standard WooCommerce behavior or select a rule under WooCommerce > Settings > General, using the Order Status Control option.

Choose what completes an order

• Default WooCommerce method: Keep the standard order behavior for stores that do not need another completion rule.
• Orders containing only virtual products: Complete orders that contain virtual products and no physical products.
• Orders paid successfully: Complete orders after payment succeeds, including orders with physical or virtual products.
• All orders: Complete an order when the customer reaches the thank-you page, regardless of its products or payment status. This includes offline payments.

Install and configure

In the WordPress dashboard, go to Add New Plugin, search for Order Status Control, then install and activate it. Open WooCommerce > Settings > General and select the completion method for your shop. Review the selected behavior with representative virtual, physical, paid, and offline-payment orders before applying it to regular shop activity.
