Tell us what you are trying to do?

Each of the product have a Toolset custom field value. That value is a PDF uploaded via custom field. We need this link to be accessible directly from order email confirmation.

I tried this kind of stuff (and a lot of other combinations 🙂 in email-order-items.php and functions.php

echo 'Download PDF';

So:

How to echo a custom field value of a product in an order email woocommerce?

Hi there

I suspect the problem is as simple as Types custom fields are stored with a prefix of 'wpcf-', so if the slug of your custom field is 'my-custom-field' then the key in wp_postmeta is actually 'wpcf-my-custom-field', which is what you should use in your get_post_meta call.

Is that the case?

Thank you for reply,

Well, also tried with wpcf- prefix.

You are using this:

get_post_meta( $product, 'my-custom-field', false )

The first argument of get_post_meta is the post ID: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_post_meta/

But $product is not the post ID.

Looking at the code of the email-order-items.php template it looks like you should be able to use $item['product_id'] for the post ID.
