In this section, we will discuss how to create custom email templates for Easy Digital Downloads using WordPress.
The code snippet provided defines a function called wpturbo_custom_email_template that is responsible for overriding the default email templates for the purchase receipt. This function takes three parameters: $template, $template_name, and $args.
The first part of the code checks if the $template_name is equal to 'edd_purchase_receipt'. If it is, it sets the $template variable to the path of a custom email template file named 'purchase-receipt.php', located in the 'edd-templates' folder inside the active theme’s directory.
if ($template_name === 'edd_purchase_receipt') {
$template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/edd-templates/purchase-receipt.php';
}The second conditional statement checks if the $template_name is equal to 'edd_purchase_receipt_html'. If it is, it sets the $template variable to the path of a custom email template file named 'purchase-receipt-html.php', also located in the 'edd-templates' folder inside the active theme’s directory.
elseif ($template_name === 'edd_purchase_receipt_html') {
$template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/edd-templates/purchase-receipt-html.php';
}By using these conditional statements, we are able to customize both the plain text and HTML versions of the purchase receipt email template.
Finally, the function returns the $template variable, which now contains the path of the custom email template file. This ensures that the custom template will be loaded instead of the default template.
return $template;To activate this custom email template, we need to hook the wpturbo_custom_email_template function to the edd_get_template_part filter using the add_filter function. The edd_get_template_part filter is triggered when Easy Digital Downloads tries to locate a template part, and we can use it to override the default email template.
add_filter('edd_get_template_part', 'wpturbo_custom_email_template', 10, 3);By following these steps, you can easily create and use your own custom email templates for Easy Digital Downloads in WordPress.
