Email Verification Pro offers a robust set of options to manage email communication for user verification. This guide dives into these options, empowering you to craft a seamless user experience.
Mail Function
- Choose the email sending method: PHP’s mail(), WooCommerce’s wc_mail(), or WordPress’s wp_mail(). WooCommerce’s wc_mail() function is generally recommended for optimal integration.
Customer New Account Email
- Delay Email: Decide if the standard WooCommerce “Customer new account” email should only be sent after successful verification.
- Template: Select the email template format (Plain, WooCommerce, or Smart).
WC Email Template
- Email Verification Plugin: Use the plugin’s built-in templates or create new ones in WooCommerce > Emails.
Email Wrap Method
- Manual: Craft your own email header and footer using HTML.
- Native: Leverage WooCommerce’s WC_Emails::wrap_message() function for a consistent look.
Common Placeholders
- Enhance your email content with placeholders like %user_email% or %site_title% to personalize communication.

- Trigger: Specify when to send the email – on user registration or after WooCommerce creates the customer.

- Customization: Craft the email subject, content, and heading.
- Fine-Tune Placement: (For appended emails) Define where the activation content appears within the “Customer new account” email (requires code modification).
Confirmation Email
- Send on Verification: Choose to send an email confirming successful account verification.
- Manual Verification: Optionally send confirmation when an admin manually verifies a user.
- Customization: Craft the email subject, heading, content, and delay settings.
Admin Email
