About this plugin
Optimized MK Order Porter for WooCommerce lets you move orders between WooCommerce stores without losing any data. ), data added by third-party plugins, and custom fields.
Key features
- Complete order export — billing, shipping, line items, fees, coupons, notes, and all custom meta
- Selective export — choose which field groups to include per export
- Date range + status filters — export only the orders you need
- Batch import with progress bar — processes orders in small batches so it never times out, even for thousands of orders
- Smart duplicate detection — matches imported orders by their source ID; choose to skip or update existing orders
- Product matching by SKU — links line items to the correct product on the target site even if product IDs differ
- HPOS compatible — fully compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage
- Multisite compatible — works as a single-site or network-activated plugin
- JSON format — handles nested order data (meta arrays, line item meta) that CSV cannot represent cleanly
How it works
- Install and activate on both the source and target site
- On the source site go to WooCommerce → Order Porter → Export, choose your filters and download the JSON file
- On the target site go to WooCommerce → Order Porter → Import, upload the file and click Start Import
- Watch the live progress log — each order shows as Created, Skipped, Updated, or Error
Why not CSV?
Orders contain nested data: each order has multiple line items, each line item has its own meta, shipping lines have their own meta, etc. JSON preserves this structure exactly. CSV flattens it, which means you either lose data or end up with an unwieldy number of columns.
HPOS support
This plugin uses WooCommerce’s order data store API ( wc_get_orders, WC_Order, wc_create_order ) throughout — it never queries wp_posts or wp_postmeta directly, making it fully compatible with High-Performance Order Storage on both source and target sites.
