Description
Tuning4Web – Delayed Order Processing Notice for WooCommerce keeps customers informed when an order takes longer than expected to fulfill.
Every hour, the plugin checks for orders still in the « Processing » status. Once an order has been in that status longer than the configured delay threshold, the plugin sends the customer a one-time courtesy email letting them know their order is still being worked on.
Features
- Configurable delay threshold (in hours) — set from WooCommerce > Settings > Emails
- Editable subject, heading, and email type, using the standard WooCommerce email settings screen
- Sends the notice only once per order (tracked via order meta), avoiding duplicate emails
- Runs on Action Scheduler, the same background job library used by WooCommerce itself — no extra cron setup required
- Re-checks the order status right before sending, so an order that has already moved on is skipped
- Fully translatable
Requirements
- WooCommerce must be installed and active.

FAQ
-
Does this replace the standard WooCommerce order emails?
-
No. It sends one additional, one-time email on top of the standard WooCommerce order notifications, only when an order has been stuck in « Processing » for longer than the configured threshold.
-
Will the customer receive the notice more than once per order?
-
No. Once the notice has been sent for an order, the plugin records that on the order and will not send it again for that order.
-
Can I change how many hours the plugin waits before sending the notice?
-
Yes. Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Emails > « Delayed Processing Notice » and set the « Delay threshold (hours) » field. The default is 48 hours.
-
Does this plugin add its own cron scheduling?
-
No. It schedules a recurring hourly check using Action Scheduler, the same library WooCommerce uses internally for background tasks.
