Add text to email notification in WooCommerce when Local Pickup

In your code, echo $order->shipping_method before the conditional and see what happens on the next order. That’s how you debug and find out what’s wrong with your code ??

Oh.. If I even knew what the conditional was.. I’m guessing it should be like this:

add_action( 'woocommerce_email_before_order_table', 'add_order_email_millif', 10, 2 );

function add_order_email_millif( $order, $sent_to_admin ) {
  echo $order->shipping_method
  if ( ! $sent_to_admin ) {

    if ( 'local_pickup:14' == $order->shipping_method ) {
      // shipping method
      echo '<p><strong>Instructions:</strong> S?kja í búe</p>';
    } else {
      // other methods
      echo '<p><strong>Instructions:</strong>Ekki sótt í búe</p>';
    }
  }
}

It returned nothing.. its a bit like it isn’t getting that the table rate name/value for the local pickup is local_pickup:14

when you echo $order->shipping_method what was it?

It didn’t echo the shipping method

It displays the text for the else in the if statement “Instructions: Ekki sótt í búe” even though I used the local_pickup:14 method.

Try this:

add_action( 'woocommerce_email_before_order_table', 'add_order_email_millif', 10, 2 );
function add_order_email_millif( $order, $sent_to_admin ) {

	if ( $sent_to_admin ) {
		return;
	}

	$local_pickup = false;
	foreach ( $order->get_shipping_methods() as $shipping_method ) {
		$shipping_method_id = current( explode( ':', $shipping_method['method_id'] ) );

		if ( 'local_pickup' == $shipping_method_id ) {
			$local_pickup = true;
			break;
		}
	}

	if ( $local_pickup ) {
		// shipping method
		$text = '<p><strong>Instructions:</strong> Found</p>';
	} else {
		// other methods
		$text = '<p><strong>Instructions:</strong> Not Found</p>';
	}

	return $text;
}

Well, nothing happened , it returns neither Found nor Not found.

Ahh, my bad!

Replace the return $text; with echo $text;

no, nothing :/

Nothing is shown, or it’s not showing the correct text? What version of WooCommerce are you on?

This slightly modified version of the snippet works for me and shows the text at the bottom of the “thank you” page:

add_action( 'woocommerce_thankyou', 'add_order_email_millif', 10 );
function add_order_email_millif( $order_id ) {
	$order = wc_get_order( $order_id );

	$local_pickup = false;
	foreach ( $order->get_shipping_methods() as $shipping_method ) {
		$shipping_method_id = current( explode( ':', $shipping_method['method_id'] ) );

		if ( 'local_pickup' == $shipping_method_id ) {
			$local_pickup = true;
			break;
		}
	}

	if ( $local_pickup ) {
		// shipping method
		$text = '<p><strong>Instructions:</strong> Found</p>';
	} else {
		// other methods
		$text = '<p><strong>Instructions:</strong> Not Found</p>';
	}

	echo $text;
}

Not sure why it isn’t working for you, but this customization is quite a bit outside the realm of support we can provide here. You may need to hire a developer:

I tried again and now it works ??

Super! Thanks. Then I can just change the text to something appropriate. You just made my day ??

Awesome, glad it worked. Had me really stumped why it wasn’t haha.

Hi there,
Same thing on WC 3, nothing shows up in the email body.

I’m currently looking for a way to add this text *before* the table (see screenshot ), maybe you’ll know how @icaleb ?

Thanks !
