Easy Digital Downloads Advanced Sequential Order Numbers 1.0.11
Description
Easy Digital Downloads Advanced Sequential Order Numbers is a WordPress plugin for Easy Digital Downloads that assigns sequential order numbers to payment records. It helps solve common tracking and invoicing issues by keeping order numbering consistent from the moment a purchase is initiated through completion.
Instead of using one continuous sequence for every status, it supports three separate series: temporary numbers, an optional free-order series, and completed-order numbers. With customizable prefixes and postfixes per series, simple settings, and reliable sequencing, it’s easier to maintain clear order history inside your WordPress workflow, including when using the EDD admin screens and invoice-related views.
Main Features
- Sequential numbering for payment records — Automatically generates order numbers as Easy Digital Downloads payment records are created and progressed.
- Temporary number series — Uses a dedicated sequence for orders that aren’t completed yet.
- Free order series (optional) — Enables a separate number sequence for free downloads when needed.
- Completed order series — Applies a distinct sequence to payments that reach the completed status.
- Custom prefix per series — Sets different prefixes for temporary, free, and completed order numbers.
- Custom postfix per series — Adds suffixes independently for each order series to match your documentation style.
- Enable or disable series — Turns specific number series on or off based on your store’s process.
- Manual adjustment of next number — Lets you set the next value in a series when you need to correct a sequence.

- Reduced admin confusion — Clear temporary vs. completed sequences simplify day-to-day review and support.
