Add a Prefix to Order Numbers
Shows order numbers with a prefix such as "WEB-1045" in emails, My Account and the admin, without changing the real order IDs.
Opens WPIDE on
Code
add_filter( 'woocommerce_order_number', function ( $number ) {
$prefix = 'WEB-'; // Text before every order number.
return $prefix . $number;

Searching the orders screen still uses the plain number. Payment gateways may display the prefixed number in their dashboards.
