    Claude 2 keeps suggesting I install the EDD: Better Email Receipts and EDD Custom Emails plugin so that I can get the PayPal Order# using payment_transaction_id and other things. I can’t find either of these plugins? Can you please suggest some alternatives? Thanks!

    Hi,

    The best way would be to create your own custom email tag that you can place inside emails to get the Transaction ID. We have some documentation on creating custom email tags here https://easydigitaldownloads.com/docs/managing-easy-digital-downloads-email-tags/

    I have also mentioned this to the developers to see if we can add a tag for the transaction id by default in the plugin.

    Thanks very much Mihai! I’m a little unclear how to implement this or what files I need to modify (where/how in the child theme do I invoke this or check that it’s installed? In the theme functions.php file or in the plugin folder? The docs say:

    If you want to see if a tag exists then you can do something like this: if ( edd_email_tag_exists( ‘name’ ) ) { echo “Yep!”; }

    edd_email_tag_exists() returns boolean.

    Thanks again!

    Ok – figured it out! Have transaction_id in emails now. Thanks again for all your help!
