    I am new to wordpress and eshop, and nearly ready to go live with a simple shop. However, I cannot find documentation on how to set up automatic transaction confirmation emails. How do I setup an email with customer’s address to be automatically sent to the fulfillment company? — Thanks!

    Is there a workaround? How could the eshop shoppingcart function (for non-downloadable products) for volume sales if emails are forwarded one by one, by hand to the fulfillment company?

    I found this code on quirm.net:
    “Using this you can send a copy of the email sent to the customer to yourself to receive the nice formatted version.”

    add_action(‘eshop_send_customer_email’,’myeshop_copy_email’,10,4);
    function myeshop_copy_email($csubject, $this_email, $headers, $array){
    $myemail=’EMAILADDRESS’;
    wp_mail($myemail, $csubject, $this_email,$headers);
    }

    How do I use this code (where do I paste it)? Can I alter it to forward the email to a third party?

    You can add it to your theme’s function.php file or use it within a small add-on plugin.

    Can I alter it to forward the email to a third party?

    In theory, you can hard code whatever email address you want into the function.

    Many thanks!!! This worked. I added the code to eshop.php

    Hi,

    Who is the ‘shop owner’ and where is this entered into the back end. I have made my shop live and got one order, but I didn’t get an email.
