New status not appearing on the order list

I created a new status for the orders and it is being set correctly, my problem is that is not appearing on the order list... it is blank where it should be

what should I edit for开发者_运维技巧 this to work?

example:

 $order->setState('new_status', 'new_status', 'Some comment', false);
 $order->save();

thanks,

Joe

I suspect you need to define the status in your module's config.xml file.

<config>
    <global>
        <sales>
            <order>
                <statuses>
                    <new_status translate="label"><label>Some status</label></new_status>
                </statuses>
            </order>
        </sales>
    </global>
</config>

This is how all other status codes are acquired.
