If I wanted to add the Post ID on each order what would I use for the meta value?
Hi Chris,
Post ID will be the same as order number unless you use any plugins /code to customize order number. You can just enable Order Number in template customization window to add order number.
If you use custom order number, it might require some code snippet to implement it. Reach us via support link above.
Where do I find the name and the corresponding meta key?
Hi,
It will depend upon the plugin you are using to add the additional meta fields. If the plugin is adding the data as order post meta, look at the woocommerce custom fields section in the order edit page.
