Adding my own placeholders

Hey,
Thanks for reaching out! To add custom fields you would need to add them into the email through woocommerce hooks. You can read about it here: https://rudrastyh.com/woocommerce/order-meta-in-emails.html
Hope that’s helpful!

Best,

Hi, I would like to add a custom placeholder to display value from custom billing field through WooCommerce Checkout Manager plugin (i.e : billing_wooccm12 ), and below is the function from them to access the data.

function get_wooccm_fields($fields, $order) {

if (count($billing = WOOCCM()->billing->get_fields())) {
foreach ($billing as $field_id => $field) {
if (!in_array($field['name'], WOOCCM()->billing->get_defaults())) {
if ($value = get_post_meta($order->get_id(), sprintf('_%s', $field['key']), true)) {
$fields[$field['key']] = array(
'label' => $field['label'],
'value' => $value
);
}
}
}
}

if (count($shipping = WOOCCM()->shipping->get_fields())) {
foreach ($shipping as $field_id => $field) {
if (!in_array($field['name'], WOOCCM()->shipping->get_defaults())) {
if ($value = get_post_meta($order->get_id(), sprintf('_%s', $field['key']), true)) {
$fields[$field['key']] = array(
'label' => $field['label'],
'value' => $value
);
}
}
}
}

if (count($additional = WOOCCM()->additional->get_fields())) {
foreach ($additional as $field_id => $field) {
if (!in_array($field['name'], WOOCCM()->additional->get_defaults())) {
if ($value = get_post_meta($order->get_id(), sprintf('_%s', $field['key']), true)) {
$fields[$field['key']] = array(
'label' => $field['label'],
'value' => $value
);
}
}
}
}

return $fields;
}

May I know how to add one of those values to the available placeholder?

Hi @bioe1357,
That is not something our support can help you with. The code you posted would require a dev to make work as a placeholder in emails.

You can look at this example here for a basic way to add placeholders:
