I’m a fan of Cart66. It’s easy to integrate and has a fair amount of features that make it a flexible e-commerce and member management solution for WordPress.

However, there’s one pretty big feature that Cart66 is missing: the ability to display the Order History of a logged in user.

What? Really?

Yes. Really.

This doesn’t really require a lot of explanation. It was easy to achieve with a simple SQL query and a custom loop. And all without editing the Cart66 core! So you can keep updating the plugin without worry. 🙂

Websites that sell digital goods will especially find this handy since users will be able to view their past receipts to re-download purchases.

Just insert this code into the functions.php file of your WordPress theme and use the shortcode [order_history] on a member’s only page to show the Order History for that user. Enjoy!

The original code for this idea came from a post by Alison Barrett.
