wc-emails-classic

What problem does it solve?

WooCommerce's classic transactional emails rely on the PHP-template path and the WC_Email class. This skill guides developers to extend WC_Email, override templates, and tune subject/heading strings for custom notifications, without using the block editor.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Extend WC_Email to create new, customer-facing or admin emails that WooCommerce can dispatch.
• Override existing email templates by placing copies in the theme under woocommerce/emails, ensuring theme-level customization with safe fallbacks.
• Register custom emails via the woocommerce_email_classes filter and align with WooCommerce status transitions using the _notification actions.
• Manage locale consistency and admin-configurable strings to support multilingual sites and business-specific messaging.

Quick Start

Create a custom email by extending WC_Email, configure template_html/plain paths, register via the woocommerce_email_classes filter, and hook into a woocommerce_order_status_*_notification action.
