Add custom product option to woocommerce orders list

Question

I am using the "custom product options" plugin and created a datepicker for customers to choose a requested ship date. I need to create a column on my orders admin page for their selection so I do not have to go into the order to find the date. I have found a few different threads that are similar but they don't really apply to my exact situation. Would someone be able to provide some help on this? Apologies for a lack of detail that is getting me downvotes, but If I knew what I needed I wouldn't be here asking what to do. I am a novice, cut me a little slack. Datepicker can be seen here.

This is the code that I used for one of my WooCommerce sites to get order-colors:

add_filter( 'manage_edit-shop_order_columns','shopOrder',10 );
function shopOrder($columns)
{
    $columns['custom_color_column'] = "Färger";
    return $columns;    
}

add_action( 'manage_shop_order_posts_custom_column' , 'populateShopOrder' );
function populateShopOrder( $column ) {
    global $the_order, $post;

    if( $column == 'custom_color_column' ) {
        global $post, $the_order;

        if ( empty( $the_order ) || $the_order->get_id() !== $post->ID ) {
            $the_order = wc_get_order( $post->ID );
        }

        if ( empty( $the_order ) ) {
            return;
        }

        $items = $the_order->get_items();
        foreach ($items as $item) {
          // load meta data - product attributes
          foreach ($item->get_meta_data() as $metaData) {
            $attribute = $metaData->get_data();
            // attribute value
            $value = $attribute['value'];
            
            if($value != null && $attribute['key'] == "pa_farg"){
                echo "- " . $value;
                if(count($items) > 1) echo "<br>";
            }
            else return;
          }
        }

    }

}

However this might not be the exakt case for you. Since I do not know the exact plugin that you are using I can not know for sure.

However it should be close. If you can figure out the attribute names then you could switch it from "fa_farg" to that, or you could link the plugin thet you are using and I will take a look at it.
