Troubleshooting: Action Buttons Are Not Showing
Troubleshoot missing WooCommerce Advanced Order Actions buttons on orders, order lists, or admin screens.
If action buttons or order actions are missing, the issue is usually license, permission, order status, or order eligibility.
Check the License
Go to YoOhw Studio → Licenses. The license must be active. The plugin does not load the main order action features when the license is inactive.
Check User Permission
Administrators can use the actions. Shop Managers need WooCommerce → Settings → Orders → General → Advanced → Permission enabled.
Check Allowed Status
Each action has its own allowed status setting. If an order status is not selected, the related button or action may not appear.
Check Order Eligibility
- Split order needs enough items or quantity to split.
- Merge order only appears for allowed statuses.
- Duplicate actions only appear for allowed duplicate statuses.
- Return to original order only appears on split orders that still have an original order link.
Check the Screen
Some actions appear on the order edit screen. Bulk actions appear on the orders list. Make sure you are checking the correct place.
