Modify woocommerce orders.php columns

Question

I am trying to modify the columns in the Woocommerce orders.php table. I would like to get rid of the TOTAL column as well as the DATE column and then I would like to add a new column with some custom information that’s specific to my store.

The following function used to work but has been deprecated since Woocommerce 2.6. So the question is, does anybody know how to delete/add columns to this table after 2.6?

function wc_get_account_orders_columns() {
  $columns = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_account_orders_columns', array(
    'order-number'  => __( 'Order', 'woocommerce' ),
    'order-date'    => __( 'Date', 'woocommerce' ),
    'order-status'  => __( 'Status', 'woocommerce' ),
    'order-total'   => __( 'Total', 'woocommerce' ),
    'order-actions' => ' ',
  ) );

  // Deprecated filter since 2.6.0.
  return apply_filters( 'woocommerce_my_account_my_orders_columns', $columns );
}

Answer 1

A friend of mine helped me out with this. Here is the function that I ended up using in case anybody finds it useful:

function new_orders_columns( $columns = array() ) {

    // Hide the columns
    if( isset($columns['order-total']) ) {
        // Unsets the columns which you want to hide
        unset( $columns['order-number'] );
        unset( $columns['order-date'] );
        unset( $columns['order-status'] );
        unset( $columns['order-total'] );
        unset( $columns['order-actions'] );
    }

    // Add new columns
    $columns['order-number'] = __( 'Reserva', 'Text Domain' );
    $columns['reservation-date'] = __( 'Para el día', 'Text Domain' );
    $columns['reservation-people'] = __( 'Seréis', 'Text Domain' );
    $columns['order-status'] = __( 'Estado de la reserva', 'Text Domain' );
    $columns['order-actions'] = __( ' ', 'Text Domain' );

    return $columns;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_account_orders_columns', 'new_orders_columns' );

Note that it is not necesary to first unset all the columns and then set them again like I did unless you want to change the order in which they apear or insert new columns between the existing ones.

In the other answers it is not mentioned how to populate a column with custom information. So, the complete algorithm is below:

Step 1. Add or remove

add_filter( 'manage_edit-shop_order_columns','your_function_name');
function your_function_name($columns)
{
    // to remove just use unset
    unset($columns['order_total']); // remove Total column
    unset($columns['order_date']); // remove Date column

    // now it is time to add a custom one
    $columns['custom_column'] = "Column title";

    return $columns;    
}

Step 2. Fill with data

add_action( 'manage_shop_order_posts_custom_column' , 'your_function_name2' );
function your_function_name2( $column ) {
    global $the_order; // you can use the global WP_Order object here
    // global $post; // is also available here

    if( $column == 'custom_column' ) {

        // do stuff, ex: get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'key', true );

    }

}
