    Hello,

    Using the code found in the following URL, an email notification can be sent to admin when new customer registers.

    https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/notify-admin-new-account-created/

    To what ‘admin’ term be changed to, in order for the email notification to be sent to Shop Manager rather than the admin? 

    /**
 * Notify admin when a new customer account is created
 */
add_action( 'woocommerce_created_customer', 'woocommerce_created_customer_admin_notification' );
function woocommerce_created_customer_admin_notification( $customer_id ) {
  wp_send_new_user_notifications( $customer_id, 'admin' );
}

    Thank you

    Hi there!

    That function in the code you mention is a standard WordPress function, that accepts only 3 options for that parameter: admin, user, both (default is both). So while the role name you’re looking for is ‘shop_manager’ (as per this doc) it won’t work to simply replace ‘admin’ with it.

    If you look at the function wp_send_new_user_notification itself, you’ll see it’s just a wrapper for the function wp_new_user_notification, which is where the action happens:
    https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/functions/wp_new_user_notification/

    In that function there’s a filter, wp_new_user_notification_email_admin, which you can use to change the ‘to’ address. Something like this should work: 

    
/**
 * Notify any email when a new customer account is created
 */
add_action( 'woocommerce_created_customer', 'woocommerce_created_customer_admin_notification' );
function woocommerce_created_customer_admin_notification( $customer_id ) {

  add_action( 'wp_new_user_notification_email_admin', 'change_admin_email_to_store_manager_email' );
  function change_admin_email_to_store_manager_email( $wp_new_user_notification_email_admin ) {
    $wp_new_user_notification_email_admin['to'] = 'your_store_manager@email_address.com';
    return $wp_new_user_notification_email_admin;
  }

  wp_send_new_user_notifications( $customer_id, 'admin' );
}

    Hello @eastofwest!

    The code worked. Email notification when user registers is sent to email address specified and not to admin’s.

    Thank you for your excellent support!
