All sorts of odd bits of data get put in the postmeta table. * You still have different meta_keys in update_post_meta() and in the later get_post_meta(). * Can’t remember why I did it, but on mine I have the update_post_meta() in the ‘ woocommerce_new_order’ hook, not in the ‘woocommerce_checkout_update_order_meta’ hook. * I had phpMyAdmin open at the postmeta table to make sure the value was actually been added. * Thread Starter [LordLiverpool](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lordliverpool/) * (@lordliverpool) * [8 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/woocommerce-tutorial/#post-9830537) * [@lorro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorro/) * Sorry for the slow reply!
