    I have noticed that WooCommerce by default, sets the order status to “processing” when an order is placed. However, since I only sell downloadable products, I am concerned that my customers may be confused by receiving an email stating that their order is being processed, especially when the same email also includes their download link. Is there a way to automatically set these orders to “completed” as soon as the payment is received?

    Dear @Woolwolf,

    We hope this message finds you well.

    To address your request, please try adding the following custom code to the functions.php file located in your child theme:

    
add_action( 'woocommerce_payment_complete', 'wpdesk_set_completed_for_paid_orders' );
function wpdesk_set_completed_for_paid_orders( $order_id ) {
    $order = wc_get_order( $order_id );
    $order->update_status( 'completed' );
}

    For further details and guidance, you may refer to this article: [WooCommerce Payment Complete Hook](https://wpdesk.net/blog/woocommerce_payment_complete-hook/).

    Should you have any questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to reach out.

    Best regards,
    The 8Theme Team.

    Thank you for your help! I have inserted the code, and It is working great.

    Unfortunately, another problem has occurred. I’m selling a downloadable product, but the download link is missing from the “order complete” page and the email confirmation.

    Can you help me fix this?

    Best regards,
    Trine
