plugins - How can I send the mail once?

admin管理员组

文章数量:1291083

I am working on a marketplace plugin. If the vendors do not accept the order within the date range I set, the order will be cancelled. For this, I have determined a time period of order date +3 days. So far, so good.

For example,
deadline ( $last_time): 1623593126
Today: $now // (unix today)
Order Code: $order_number

According to the scenario above, I am sending an e-mail to an e-mail address by using wp_mail that the order was not accepted. The problem starts here. Wordpress mail not working as I want. If the scenario is realized, that is, if the vendor does not accept the order, an e-mail is sent. However, every time the page is refreshed, this mail comes again and again. How can I prevent this? Therefore, the mail should come only once. I would be glad if you help. I've been searching for about 3 days but couldn't find a solution. My code is below:

foreach ( $user_orders as $order ) {

//...codes...

if($now>$last_time) {
    $order_number = $order->get_order_number(); 
    $to = '[email protected]';
    $subject = 'Failed order ';
    $body = '#'.$order_number. ' order number failed;
    $headers = array('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
    wp_mail( $to, $subject, $body, $headers );

}

//...codes...

You can use meta to create a one time action

something like this

$order_id = $order->get_id();

if (get_post_meta($order_id, 'is_mail_sent', true)) return;

update_post_meta($order_id, 'is_mail_sent', true);

Add this right after the opening of the if block

This code will first check if the order meta value of is_mail_sent is true, if true it will return (exit) from the funcion.

If it was not true, first time, then it will continue to the rest of the code and also set the is_mail_sent to true to prevent future mail sending

You could also do this

$order_id = $order->get_id();

if($now>$last_time && !get_post_meta($order_id, 'is_mail_sent', true)) {
    update_post_meta($order_id, 'is_mail_sent', true);

    $order_number = $order->get_order_number(); 
    $to = '[email protected]';
    $subject = 'Failed order ';
    $body = '#'.$order_number. ' order number failed;
    $headers = array('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
    wp_mail( $to, $subject, $body, $headers );
}

This will perform the same check but will only wrap the mail part of the code
