Default order email CC setting?

Hi @shamya3,

Great question about WooCommerce order emails!

WooCommerce does have a recipient field for admin-facing emails (like “New Order”) under WooCommerce → Settings → Emails. You can add multiple email addresses there separated by commas.

However, for customer-facing emails like the Processing Order confirmation, there’s no built-in CC field. If you want the admin CC’d on those, you’d need a small snippet. Here’s one you can add via Appearance → Theme File Editor → functions.php or a Code Snippets plugin:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_email_headers', function( $headers, $email_id, $order ) {
    if ( $email_id === 'customer_processing_order' ) {
        $headers .= 'CC: Admin Name <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";
    }
    return $headers;
}, 10, 3 );

Replace [email protected] with your email address. You can also change customer_processing_order to any other email ID (like customer_completed_order) to CC on different email types.

Also, I’m curious. Do you often send custom notifications or manage multiple email recipients for your store?

Looking forward to your response.
