Hi team,
We are encountering a fatal error during automated cron executions. (specifically when background tasks like Jetpack Sync run wc_get_order()).
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function wc_get_page_screen_id() in wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-currency-switcher/classes/woocs_hpos.php:55
Stack trace:
#0 wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-currency-switcher/index.php(582): WoocsHpos->getOrderScreenId()

#27 wp-cron.php(191): do_action_ref_array()
Cause
The function wc_get_page_screen_id() is loaded exclusively inside the admin context (woocommerce/includes/admin/wc-admin-functions.php).
When background workers, WP-CLI, or WP-Cron load orders via wc_get_order(), option filters trigger woocs_is_admin_order_edit_context(), which invokes WoocsHpos::getOrderScreenId(). Since the admin functions file is not loaded in non-admin/cron contexts, it results in an unhandled E_ERROR.
Suggested Fix
In classes/woocs_hpos.php, you can check if the function exists or directly use \Automattic\WooCommerce\Utilities\OrderUtil::get_order_admin_screen():
public function getOrderScreenId(): string {
if ( ! class_exists( '\Automattic\WooCommerce\Utilities\OrderUtil' ) ) {
return 'shop_order';
}if ( \Automattic\WooCommerce\Utilities\OrderUtil::custom_orders_table_usage_is_enabled() ) {
if ( function_exists( 'wc_get_page_screen_id' ) ) {
return wc_get_page_screen_id( 'shop-order' );
}
return \Automattic\WooCommerce\Utilities\OrderUtil::get_order_admin_screen();
}return 'shop_order';
}
Could you please patch this in the next release to prevent background cron processes from failing?
Thanks!
Hello
Thank you for the report, and thank you for the full stack trace. It confirmed the cause immediately.
We are not going to use OrderUtil::get_order_admin_screen() as the fallback. Internally it calls COTMigrationUtil::get_order_admin_screen(), which throws an exception when is_admin() is false, so in a real background context it would replace one fatal error with another. A plain guard is safer.
You can apply the fix right now. Open classes/woocs_hpos.php, make a backup first, and replace the getOrderScreenId method with this version:
public function getOrderScreenId(): string {
if (!function_exists('wc_get_container') || !class_exists('Automattic\WooCommerce\Utilities\OrderUtil') || !function_exists('wc_get_page_screen_id') || !class_exists('WC_Admin_Menus')) {
return '';
}
// @phpstan-ignore-next-line
$screen = wc_get_container()->get(HposController::class)->custom_orders_table_usage_is_enabled() ? wc_get_page_screen_id('shop-order') : 'shop_order';
return $screen;
}Both places that call this method already handle an empty string correctly, so nothing else needs to be touched.
Please tell us whether the cron errors stop after this. We plan to release the update with this fix included, most likely this week, so the manual edit is only a stopgap until then.
Best regards
Alex
