Accessing User Notes

User Notes are stores as an array on the user meta. The below example shows you how to output the user notes via PHP.

	function custom_get_notes( $user_id ) {

		if ( empty( $user_id ) ) {
			return;
		}

		$notes = get_user_meta( $user_id, '_puri_user_note', true );

		if ( empty( $notes ) || ! is_array( $notes ) ) {
			return;
		}

		$notes_output = '';

		foreach ( $notes as $note ) {
			if ( ! empty( $note['content'] ) ) {
				$notes_output .= esc_html( $note['content'] );
			}
		}

		if ( empty( $notes_output ) ) {
			return;
		}

		$output = '<span style="margin:20px 0px;display: block;">';
		$output .= '<strong>' . __( 'Private Notes:', 'puri-user-notes' ) . '</strong>';
		$output .= $notes_output;
		$output .= '</span>';

		return $output;

Enable WooCommerce Order Column Notes

In some cases you may need to specify at which action the filter should run. If you are using another plugin, please select “plugins _loaded” with a priority of 5.

Otherwise this snippet should activate private notes in the WooCommerce orders list column.

function custom_after_plugins_loaded() {
	add_filter( 'puri_user_notes_enable_wc_column', '__return_true' );
}
add_action( 'plugins_loaded', 'custom_after_plugins_loaded', 5 );Code language: JavaScript (javascript)

Reorder the WooCommerce columns to the end

// Sort columns after they have all been added by plugins.
function custom_wc_column_order($columns) {
		
	if (!empty($columns['private_user_note'])) {	
		// Grab the note column.
		$note_column = $columns['private_user_note'];
		// Remove it from the current location in the array.
		unset($columns['private_user_note']);
		// Re-set it at the end.
		$columns['private_user_note'] = $note_column;	
	}
	
	return $columns;
}

add_filter('manage_edit-shop_order_columns', 'custom_wc_column_order', 999);Code language: PHP (php)

Register Custom User Role

In this example the order_manager is a custom user role added by another plugin. You can register the user role with Private User Note, to allow them to view & edit user notes.

function add_order_manager_to_allowed_roles( $allowed_roles ) {
    // Add 'order_manager' to the array of allowed roles
    $allowed_roles[] = 'order_manager';
    return $allowed_roles;
}

// Hook the above function to the 'user_notes_manager_roles' filter
add_filter( 'user_notes_manager_roles', 'add_order_manager_to_allowed_roles' );Code language: PHP (php)
