Share the post "Admin WooCommerce: Display the ID Column in the Category table"
In ths tutorial, we will show you how, with two distinct functions, we can display an ID column in WooCommerce Admin with the help of a shortcode.
There exist two WordPress filters: manage_edit-category_columns and manage_category_custom_column.
In our example, we are going to use them to display WooCommerce taxonomies.
Let’s build our first function, manage_edit-category_columns, by replacing category with product_cat.
To edit the WooCommerce taxonomies, we’ll replace manage_edit-category_columns with manage_edit-product_cat_columns and identify it as termid as our column that we’ll call with our functions:
function my_custom_taxonomy_columns( $columns )
{
$columns['termid'] = __('Term ID');
return $columns;
}
add_filter('manage_edit-product_cat_columns' , 'my_custom_taxonomy_columns');So with this, we can set up the required column.
The next filter will allow us to display the WooCommerce Taxonomy ID. We’ll do the exact same thing for manage_category_custom_column, by replacing it with manage_product_cat_custom_column.
function my_custom_taxonomy_columns_content( $content, $column_name, $term_id )
{
if ( 'termid' == $column_name ) {
$content = $term_id;
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( 'manage_product_cat_custom_column', 'my_custom_taxonomy_columns_content', 10, 3 );
