WooCommerce Cancel Abandoned Order

FAQ

Does this plugin use Action Scheduler

Yes we have started the migration to Action Scheduler (recurring action) since version 1.9.0

What does the plugin do?

Depending on the options defined in the payment gateway options page, the system will cancel orders whose payments have not been received.

Mode

You can cancel orders in hours or days.
For example, if I put the mode “Hourly”, I can cancel orders pending after 2 hours.
Another example, in mode “Daily”, I can cancel orders that I have not received payment within 7 days.

The execution of the cleaning is done like this:
Mode “Hourly”: every hour to 00 minutes
Mode “Daily”: every day at 0:00

Since version 1.9.0, the action is no longer executed at XXh00. Refer to the “Scheduled Actions” tab of the “Status” page of WooCommerce.

I would like to cancel orders pending payment

Follow the tutorial here to change the status of orders to cancel. By default the “on-hold” commands are canceled.

This is a must have for shops with digital products. If the payment doesn’t go through, no need to make it complicated. Cancel it and let the customer try again. Great to have this. Thank you

Thanks, the filters to add custom parameters is fine. Just need a option for any canceled order (without type of payment)

First review because I really like this plugin. It is straightforward and works like a charm. Glad that the creator included guides on Github Wiki. Minimal editing is required. It’s a pity that some comments have driven the creator to stop support. I do still hope that this remains updated and compatible. 🙂 If the creator does read this, I have two questions that I wish to understand. 1) If I were to put 24hrs daily to cancel, from when does it start activating the countdown? 2) Is it possible to change the status to ‘Failed’ instead of ‘Cancelled’? In any case, just want to say GREAT JOB ON THIS PLUGIN!
