 * I have an error poping up on some wordpress emails (I use woocomerce too) seems
   to be part of wordpress due to the location of error.
 * Notice: email_order_items_table was called with an argument that is deprecated
   since version 2.5.0 with no alternative available. in /var/www/wp-includes/functions.
   php on line 3739
 * I have PHP7 so probably is something related to it?? Or is something calling 
   that in wordpress?? Then I will need to find the culprit maybe woocomerce! 🙂
 * Looking forward to your thoughts.
 * Thanks!

 * Is your version of WooCommerce compatible with your version of WordPress?
 * If so, have you tried resetting your server to run php 5.6 instead of 7 to see
   if the error goes away?

 * I have this same problem. The email lists the products purchased without issue,
   but the error is the same:
 * Notice: email_order_items_table was called with an argument that is deprecated
   since version 2.5.0 with no alternative available. in ~filepath/wp-includes/functions.
   php on line 3739

 * The error is about deprecated argument.
 * Are your plugins/theme up to date?

 * This is a little late but in case still helpful:
 * in Abstract Order (under WooCommerce/Classes)
 *  You can see that all the args except the first one have been deprecated
    * Output
   items for display in html emails. * * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/)
   array $args Items args. * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/)
   null $deprecated1 Deprecated arg. * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/)
   null $deprecated2 Deprecated arg. * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/)
   null $deprecated3 Deprecated arg. * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/)
   null $deprecated4 Deprecated arg. * [@param](https://wordpress.org/support/users/param/)
   null $deprecated5 Deprecated arg. * [@return](https://wordpress.org/support/users/return/)
   string */ **public function email_order_items_table( $args = array(), $deprecated1
   = null, $deprecated2 = null, $deprecated3 = null, $deprecated4 = null, $deprecated5
   = null ) { …………….. ……………… }
 * You need to search for **“$order->email_order_items_table”** function in your
   theme or under a plugin which is sending email.
 * Then change it to something like below:
 * in your email templates under your woocommerce directory under your theme or 
   a plugin you have
    something like this for your plain text email: “ echo “\n”.
   $order->email_order_items_table( $order->is_download_permitted(), true, $order-
   >has_status( ‘processing’ ), ”, ”, true );
 * This should be something like this depending on your requirements:
    “echo “\n”.
   $order->email_order_items_table( array( ‘show_sku’ => false, ‘show_image’ => 
   false, ‘$image_size’ => array( 32, 32 ), ‘plain_text’ => true ) );”
 * And for your non-plain text email you have something like this:
    “<?php echo 
   $order->email_order_items_table( $order->is_download_permitted(), true, $order-
   >has_status( ‘processing’ ) ); ?>”
 * This should be something like this depending on your requirements:
    “<?php echo
   $order->email_order_items_table( array( ‘show_sku’ => false, ‘show_image’ => 
   true, ‘$image_size’ => array( 32, 32 ), ‘plain_text’ => $plain_text ) ); ?>”

 * HI I found I just had to update my email template in my theme file. Makes sense.
   I had customized the customer processing email.
 * And the system status told me to, so now I know what to do next.
    Thanks!!

 * No, no, no! You NEVER edit theme, plugin, or core files. You may temporarily “
   fix” the current issue (you haven’t, really), but you WILL create further problems
   down the road.
 * If you are getting “function deprecated” errors, then something is out of date
   on your system. That is the issue you need to fix.
