Print the unit price in the emails

Some months ago I wrote a post about how to add the unit price in the checkout page.
It would be useful though to have the same unit price also in the emails sent both to the admin and to the customer.

Doing this it’s harder than what we did for the checkout page.
There are more templates to tweak and we also have to consider both plain and HTML emails.

But it’s not impossible, obviously.

Download the zip above, then extract it. You will have a folder names emails in your computer. Copy that folder and put it in wp-content/themes/your-theme-name/woocommerce/.

Note: If you are using a custom theme which already overrides the emails templates be careful. This may break your theme. Contact the theme author before to override the templates.

      HI Viviana,
      Sorry for the very late reply!

      Technically yes, it is possible. You need to add the code to print the number. I’m not sure what to add because it depends on the Invoicing plugin you are using.

      Hi Rob,
      I just tested this on WooCommerce 2.6.1 and it works. I guess it works also for the 2.5 since the templates are the same!

      Make sure that you are pasting the whole emails folder in child-theme/woocommerce/, and not only the files inside the folder.

    Does this work with WooCommerce 3.6.6? I am nervous about replacing the “whole folder” since your folder has about half the .php files as the current version.

      Hi Laura,
      Thanks for reporting. I’ll have to update the templates, but the difference is very small. I simply add a new row in the table. You can open the files from my zip, copy the differences and add them to your templates from the 2.6.6.

      I’ll update the zip in this article as soon as I can.

    Hi Nicola,

    Thank you so very much for sharing. It works very nicely. However, if an order is fails, I need also the customized order table. Do you have a updated file for this condition that you could share?

    In addition to that, is there an easy way to add a block of text at the top to include the seller company contact information and to move the customer details above the order items table?

    Hi Nicola,

    With WooCommerce v3.0, two templates were modified: email-order-items.php one located in the emails folder the other in the plain folder.

    Are you planning to update your templates to WC version 3.0? That would be very nice.

    Hi Nicola,
    I have to upgrade to WooCommce v3.0 now, so I looked at updating the two templates myself but one of them is giving grief because the new version appears to be stripping tags which your template has and I’m not knowledgeable enough to understand the implications and risk I would be taking guessing what these will do or counter react.

    Any ETA as to when you would have the time to look at these two templates only? The more difficult one for me is the the file in the plain folder.

    Much appreciated

    Hi Nicola,
    I have upgraded to WooCommerce v3.2.1 now, and it looks like three templates have been updated. I was wondering if you could update your templates to reflect the new WooCommerce changes. The templates that have changed are:

    woocommerce/emails/email-order-details.php version 3.0.0 is out of date. The core version is 3.2.0,
    woocommerce/emails/email-order-items.php version 3.0.0 is out of date. The core version is 3.2.0,
    /woocommerce/emails/plain/email-order-items.php version 3.0.0 is out of date. The core version is 3.2.0

    I had a look at updating these myself but I’m a little confused with the new changes.

    Any ETA as to when you would have the time to look at these templates?

    Much appreciated

      In the templates you will find this code:

      Replace that get_item_total with get_item_subtotal.

        You can change the SKU that is shown in the template email-order-items.php.

        The code that you need to edit is this:

        // SKU
if ( $show_sku && is_object( $product ) && $product->get_sku() ) {
    echo ' (#' . $product->get_sku() . ')';
}

    Downloaded the files and uploaded them to the right folder and it works right away. Only thing i had to change was the column thing, but that was easy enough..

    BTW since today (nov, 1st) the template is out of date since there’s a 3.5.0 core version, I didn’t test if it’s still working, but i thought i let you know!

    Hi Nicola,

    I just noticed in the last month that some product images display in the emails and sometimes they don’t. I’ve talked to a WooCommerce support representative about this and because I use customization, they can’t provide support on this issue.

    Here’s the code used in the “order-email-details.php” file:

    tbody
    ?php
    echo wc_get_email_order_items( $order, array( // WPCS: XSS ok.
    ‘show_sku’ => $sent_to_admin,
    ‘show_image’ => false,
    ‘image_size’ => array( 32, 32 ),
    ‘plain_text’ => $plain_text,
    ‘sent_to_admin’ => $sent_to_admin,
    ) ); ?
    /tbody

    Can you help with my issue of the product images not displaying in emails?

    Thanks

    But is there a way to show the unit price as tax included price?
    As of now each product unit price on the 2nd column shows tax excluded price and subtotal on the last column is included.

      Nevermind. I figured it out!
      In case someone run into same issue as me,
      Instead of using
      <?php echo wc_price( $order->get_item_total( $item, false, true ) at line 67,
      replace ‘false’ after $item to ‘true’ to get tax included value.
      <?php echo wc_price( $order->get_item_total( $item, true, true )

    I tried this, and the unit price shows up in the emails, but on closer look, I see that the columns do not line up correctly. The product row has 4 columns, but the rows below it still only have 3 columns (in Subtotal, Payment Method, and Total).

    I was able to do it, but the labelling of the columns were switched. Quantity column shows unit price, Price column shows quantity and the total has no label. The subtotal is also in column 2, instead of column 3. Check out the image here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ese5m17u19htnqq/Screen%20Shot%202020-05-02%20at%202.38.56%20PM.png?dl=0
