Theme ↑ Back to top
This displays information about the current theme running on your installation.
This could be a more problematic area of a site, as there is no standard on what themes should and should not do, and non-Woo themes can cause conflicts with WooCommerce or one of its extensions.
If you’re experiencing issues with your site, we recommend temporarily switching to the free Storefront Theme. If your problem is resolved while the Storefront theme is active, then the issue is with the theme. To resolve, check for updates or contact the theme developer to see if there is a fix.
| Field Name | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Name of the current active theme. | Storefront |
| Version | Installed version of the current active theme. | 2.5.1 |
| Author URL | Developer or theme URL | https://woocommerce.com |
| Child Theme | Whether the active theme is a child theme, and what the parent theme is. | x |
| WooCommerce Support | Whether the theme declares WooCommerce support. | √ |
Templates ↑ Back to top
This shows any files that override default WooCommerce template pages and also note if the templates are outdated.
If you are experiencing trouble with any of the pages displayed, switching to the Storefront theme will ensure that the original template files are used. For more information, see Fixing Outdated WooCommerce Template Files. For a long-term fix, you need to contact the theme developer.
Subscriptions ↑ Back to top
Action Scheduler ↑ Back to top
This shows scheduled action counts with previous and most recent dates.
In the Tools tab are helpful buttons that can address items such as user capabilities and customer sessions.
With transients you can clear both WooCommerce transients and all expired transients from WordPress with the Clear transients and the Clear expired transients buttons. Transients are a standardized way to store cached data temporarily in the database.
If you have a collection of variations that don’t have a parent you can remove those with one click using the Delete orphaned variations button. You can then order address indexes, which can help improve order search results.
Following that you can recount terms and reset capabilities. Recounting terms can be useful if you change any settings that hide products from the catalog and have issues from that. And if you find any users that can’t access all of the WooCommerce admin pages, resetting capabilities can be used in that case.
Clear customer sessions will remove any session data from the database. This includes any carts your customers are currently working on so use with caution.
Our next useful tool is the Create default WooCommerce pages button, if you’re having issues with WooCommerce pages or don’t want to create them one by one again you can select Install pages and it will create any missing WooCommerce pages. Pages already defined and set up won’t be replaced.
After that you can delete all the tax rates you’ve set in WooCommerce. If you were going to delete them anyway use this tool versus to going through each tax class and remove those rates one by one.
Finally you can delete WebHook logs and reset the usage tracking settings. When you first installed WooCommerce you may have opted in to send us non-sensitive data that helps us make WooCommerce better for everyone. You can opt out now by reseting your usage tracking settings.
The Logs tab is where WooCommerce keeps logs of all events happening in your store.
In the dropdown you can choose the level of logs you want to see, then select the Filter button to see events captured there. This can be useful to get exact errors with timestamps on parts of your store.
If your site experiences a fatal error, they may be logged here under a log named fatal-errors. This is useful when debugging.
By default, logs are kept for 30 days before being purged as of WooCommerce 3.4. This can be changed using the woocommerce_logger_days_to_retain_logs filter which defaults to 30.
Users of WooCommerce Services have a fourth tab that allows you check the health of Services, specific Services in use, a debugging section, and more.
Health displays the status of connected parts – if anything with WooCommerce or Jetpack needs attention, and if Services is up or down.
Services displays how specific Services are doing. Perhaps they’re unused, have an error needing attention, or working fine. You can enable debug logging to capture issues, and also contact our Support team to help configure your printer for printing shipping labels.
