## Installation

## FAQ

### What emails can I customize?

The Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer plugin allows you to customize the style 
and text of all core WooCommerce emails. This plugin hooks into the main woocommerce
email function to style emails and setup templates to allow you to customize the
design and text. Some WooCommerce extensions add new emails to woocommerce core.
Generally these emails will adapt the style (header, footer, colors, etc) you set
up with the plugin but they will not be available to preview and there text will
not be editable through our plugin.

We have added support for some WooCommerce extensions like WooCommerce Subscriptions,
Germanized for WooCommerce, Woocommerce Memberships and WooCommerce Stripe Payment
Gateway.

If you are a plugin author and wish to collaborate to add support for your plugin
please [contact us](https://www.kadencewp.com/contact-us/).

### My body text is not changing, what can I do?

In your admin navigate to WooCommerce > Status and scroll down to template overrides.
If you are override email templates then that is your issue and you need to remove
those overrides if you want the Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer plugin to control
the templates.

### My emails are not translated?

WooCommerce core has a large group of translators that generously translate the 
plugin into many languages. The Kadence WooCommerce Email Designer plugin does not
have translations for many of these languages so you will need to translate some
strings yourself. The easiest way to do this is through the [Loco Translate](https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/)
plugin. You can install this plugin and translate parts of the emails like Price,
Product, Quantity, etc into your language.

After you create your translations make sure to clear your server cache from any
caching plugins. Also go to woocommerce > status > tools and clear your template
cache.

### Where do I report security bugs found in this plugin?

Please report security bugs found in the source code of the
 Kadence WooCommerce
Email Designer plugin through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program https://
patchstack.com/database/vdp/kadence-woocommerce-email-designer. The Patchstack team
will assist you with verification, CVE assignment, and notify the developers of

Was one of the best WooCommerce email design plugins available, but it stopped working
with the latest WordPress or possibly Elementor. Email sent with the default WooCommerce
template, and unable to get into the WordPress customizer.

I had high hopes and customisations looked great in preview. Unfortunately the actual
emails distributed by this system looked nothing like the preview! There was no 
header styling and header background added in the customised, added a background
colour to the whole email. Don’t waste your time on this.

Stopped working recently with an update from wordpress or maybe elementor. It’s 
free, so maybe they don’t update it much. It was good up until now. Have to switch
to another.

Acrescenta uma seção dentro do personalizar do site que permite ajustar o conteúdo
como preferir. Baixei os modelos para dispositivo móvel, o que deixou as mensagens
muito mais elegantes e profissionais. Deve ser testado com cuidado antes da adoção.

 [malaga16](https://profiles.wordpress.org/malaga16/) July 5, 2024

Not compatible with ANY custom order plugins, or hardcoded (woo logic based) custom
order status WITH emails. (Yes I know this plugin doesnt add email, but example 
custom order status plugin from woo.com can add emails too. But Kadence email designer
doesnt see it, only the default woo mails. The last update / bugfix / new feature
was more than 8 months ago. De editor has jquery error too. Uncaught ReferenceError:
