WooCommerce: Show SKU @ Cart, Checkout, Order & Emails

When SKU matters to the end user, displaying it in the Cart page, Checkout page, Thank you page, My Account View Order page and Order Emails under the item name is a must.

Ideal for B2B businesses and international brands, this simple customization can help you learn how to add any sort of content under the Cart/Checkout/Order item names. Simply use the same hook and try “getting” something different than SKU with this guide. Enjoy!

WooCommerce: Add To: Cc: Bcc: Email Recipients

The WooCommerce Email Settings allow you to add custom recipients only for New Order, Cancelled Order, Failed Order and all admin-only emails.

But what if you want to add an email recipient to a customer email e.g. the Completed Order one? For example, you need to send it to your dropshipper. Also, you might want to add a To: recipient, or instead a cleaner Cc: or safer Bcc:.

Either way, a simple snippet allows you to achieve that (and more, if you consider WooCommerce conditional logic). Enjoy!

WooCommerce: Hide “Thanks for shopping with us” @ Emails

WooCommerce emails come with the following hard-coded (argh!) greetings: ‘Thanks for shopping with us.‘, ‘Thanks for reading.‘, ‘We look forward to seeing you soon.‘, ‘We look forward to fulfilling your order soon.‘, ‘Thanks!‘, ‘We hope to see you again soon.‘ based on the specific email.

While having these greetings in the WooCommerce customer email footer may look nice and friendly, you should have the freedom to remove or edit them.

So, you have two choices: doing that via the email settings, or by “translating” those strings via PHP. Enjoy!

WooCommerce: Remove “Get the app” Ad @ Admin Order Emails

Here’s a quick snippet to disable those (annoying) WooCommerce ads that show in the footer of the “New Order” email (which goes to admins): “Process your orders on the go. Get the app.“

The code is a little different from what you find online, let me know if it works!

WooCommerce: Send Email to Admin Every 3 Hours (Cron Job)

This snippet consists of many WooCommerce tasks: setting up a “WordPress Cron Job” (i.e. schedule a hook that runs on a specific time interval), getting the WooCommerce completed orders from the database, and finally sending a simple email to the store admin.

Complex, but as usual you can simply copy/paste and re-adapt it to your unique specifications. For example, I’m using it to send a survey email to each customer who has placed an order. There are thousands of applications, so this is just the start. Enjoy! Continue reading WooCommerce: Send Email to Admin Every 3 Hours (Cron Job)

WooCommerce: Send a Custom Email on Order Status Change

If you use custom WooCommerce order statuses, sending emails is quite complex because you need to code a full custom email PHP class.

At least on paper!

In this workaround, we will actually “use” one of the existing email classes (note: it must be active in your WooCommerce email settings in order to work), change the subject and heading, and trigger it – like if it were a custom order status email.

Enjoy!

WooCommerce: Don’t Send Emails for Free Orders

There are times when you sell free products to give customers access to a membership, an online course, or for other reasons. In these cases, you might not want to send the “Order Completed” email or get the “New Order” transactional notification, so that you can avoid sending and receiving hundreds of emails.

Of course, you’d still want to keep the order emails for amounts above $0. Here’s the fix.

WooCommerce: Remove Link to Product @ Order Table

There is a slightly annoying thing on the WooCommerce Thank-You Page and WooCommerce emails. Users looking at the order table can actually click on the Products they just purchased and abandon the page before taking the action you want them to take (see image below).

So, I coded a simple PHP snippet to remove such links. As usual, 1 line of code is more than sufficient:)

WooCommerce: Add CSS to Order Emails

Unlike your WordPress theme, you can’t just add CSS to your style.css in order to customize the look of the WooCommerce emails.

This handy PHP snippet is therefore the only viable solution. It’s a little tricky but once you get the idea, adding CSS to Order Emails is a breeze.

WooCommerce Visual Hook Guide: Emails

WooCommerce customizers: the Visual Hook Guide is back!

Here’s a visual HTML hook guide for the WooCommerce Emails. This visual guide belongs to my “Visual Hook Guide Series“, that I’ve put together so that you can find WooCommerce hooks quickly and easily by seeing their actual locations.

Let me know in the comments if this resource is helpful and how. Enjoy!

WooCommerce: How to Add a Custom Checkout Field

Let’s imagine you want to add a custom checkout field (and not an additional billing or shipping field) on the WooCommerce Checkout page. For example, it might be a customer licence number – this has got nothing to do with billing and nothing to do with shipping.

Ideally, this custom field could show above the Checkout page order notes – right after the shipping form. It will feature a label, an input field, and will be required.

So, here’s how you do it – hope it helps you understand that anything is possible with WooCommerce!

WooCommerce: Add First Name to Order Email Subject

Today we take a look at the WooCommerce Emails and specifically at how to change the subject of the Customer Processing Order email by adding the billing “First Name”. As usual, this is a matter of 3 lines of PHP code – feel free to copy/paste and customize it to your liking 🙂

WooCommerce: Add Payment Method to Order Emails

If you wish to print the payment gateway name on order emails (in its own paragraph below the order items table), here’s a handy snippet for you.

All you need to use is the “woocommerce_email_after_order_table” hook to pick the correct position, and then the “get_payment_method_title” WooCommerce function to return the payment gateway name. Enjoy!

WooCommerce: Add Content to a Specific Order Email

Customizing WooCommerce emails via the WordPress dashboard is not easy and – sometimes – not possible. For example, you can’t edit or add content to them unless you’re familiar with code.

Well, here’s a quick example to learn how to add content to any WooCommerce default order email. In this case study, our goal is showing an upsell to get buyers to go back to the website and buy with a coupon code. Enjoy!
