Include metadata in orders

[EvanGR]

Hello,

I want to save some hidden metadata along with each order.
For example, I want to know if an order was done via a referral/affiliate link. (and be able to view that in the VM Orders page).

Any tips on this appreciated. Thanks!

I use ShopTracker plugin from Rupostel

Thank you.

I have this plugin enabled, but I don't see any referral info saved with the orders.

I think I need a custom solution...

1) I can store the referral data (and other analytics data) in user's local storage.
2) When completing the order, I want to save it with the order, so I can see it in the VM backend, in the Order page.

it's the step 2 I am not sure how to do.

Yes,
I send you order detail with saved track referral URL - do you remember?
I see this info in order detail in admin and in DB - look at the picture.

Why do you write again and again, if this function is ok?
