Adds bulk action “Download spreadsheet file” to the WooCommerce administrator orders list view. To use:

  2. Filter the page so it shows most of the orders you want to process (status, etc).
  3. Click the “select all” checkbox then un-check any orders on the page you don’t want in the export.
  4. Select the Bulk actions drop-down choosing “Download spreadsheet file” then click Apply.
