No admin email with new order

    Hello,

    Previously we would receive an email to our admin account with the invoice attached when an order got placed. Somehow this stopped working. I updated WordPress to 4.3.1, WooCommerce to 2.4.7, and WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips to 1.5.22. No luck, however.

    At the plugin status everything is green, except opcache which is orange. I checked all the temp folders, they are all writeable (even tried changing permission to 777, but this didn’t help either).

    What can I do? My client needs this functionality :(.

    Thanks,
    Joerik

    Hello Joerik,
    Is the admin sent to the customer, or does the plugin not send any email attachments at all? What happens if you manually send an email (which you have configured the attachment for in the General settings) via the order actions on the order edit page?

    Hello Ewout,
    Thanks for your reply. There was no email at all. I fixed the problem, however! Something was wrong with WordPress sending emails. I installed WP-Mail-SMTP and changed admin mails to be sent from my Gmail account instead of through WordPress. Now the emails arrive perfectly!

    Awesome! Using SMTP is a good idea in general, because you’re much less likely to end up in the spam folder of the customer. Note that gmail has a limit on the amount of emails you’re allowed to send via SMTP (500/day 20/hour, or 2000/day if you’re using paid Google Apps).
