I am adding a shortcode from wordpress to woocommerce email template.

do_shortcode('[sample_test name="additional_gift_msg"]);

Then i am using this to display the value in email. I am able to display value.

function th_email_shortcode_handler( $atts ) {
    if ( ! empty( $atts['name'] ) ) {
        $field = $atts['name'];
        echo 'Found me';
    }
}
add_shortcode('sample_test','th_email_shortcode_handler');

But i need $order or $order_id inside this handler function to take some value from post meta. How can i use those variables? The shortcode handler function is in functions.php

WooCommerce Email template already has access to $order variable. You simply need to add it to shortcode atts, like this

do_shortcode('[sample_test name="additional_gift_msg" order_id=' . $order->get_id() . ']');

Then in the shortcode callback:

function th_email_shortcode_handler( $atts ) {
    // get the $order_id
    $order_id = $atts['order_id'];

    // create the order object if needed
    $order = new WC_Order( $order_id );

    if ( ! empty( $atts['name'] ) ) {
        $field = $atts['name'];
        echo 'Found me';
    }
}

  • How are you trying to add that information to the email template? Using the hook or by placing the template in woocommerce directory in the theme? Commented Oct 4, 2018 at 4:34
