Previewing the email templates by placing orders. I think it should be an official option.
I modified the built in WooCommerce functions.
add_filter('woocommerce_mail_content', function( $message ){
if ( is_admin() && isset( $_GET['preview_woocommerce_mail'] ) && isset( $_GET['_wpnonce'] ) ) {
// Temporarily overwrite order status
add_filter('woocommerce_order_has_status', function( $return, $order, $status ){
if ( isset( $_GET['email'] ) ){
$return = $status == strtolower( str_replace( ['WC_Email_','Customer_','_Order','_'],['','','','-'], $_GET['email'] ) );
}
return $return;
}, 10, 3 );
// Include woocommerce subscription
add_filter( 'wc_get_template', function ( $template, $template_name, $args, $template_path, $default_path ){
if ( isset( $args['email']->template_base ) && !file_exists( $template ) && file_exists( $args['email']->template_base.$template_name ) ){
$template = $args['email']->template_base.$template_name;
}
return $template;
}, 1, 5);
