In this article, we will guide you through the process of using Easyship to incorporate tracking codes into SMS notifications, ensuring seamless communication and efficient shipment tracking.
Generate Tracking Codes in Easyship:
- Once your shipping carriers are connected, Easyship will automatically sync your orders from WooCommerce.
- After an order is processed, Easyship will generate a tracking code for the shipment, which will be associated with the specific order.
Configure SMS Notifications with WP SMS Plugin:
- Install and activate the WP SMS plugin on your WordPress site (if you haven’t already).
- Navigate to the SMS → Integrations → WooCommerce section within your WordPress dashboard.
- Utilizing the %order_meta_{key-name}% attribute in the provided fields:
- Notify for new order,
- Notify to customer order
- Notify of status
- Notify by status
- Since the key name of the tracking code in the Easyship is
tracking-id, when you want to use it in the message field to be sent, you need to use%order_meta_tracking-id%
