Beschrijving
This plugin is designed to simplify the process of creating new users/customers. It’s particularly useful if you receive client orders via phone or email and want to integrate these orders into WooCommerce for stock and order management.
The plugin adds a checkbox at the end of the billing address form. When this box is checked, it creates a new user with the role “customer.” If an email is not provided, the plugin generates a unique one using your site’s domain as the email domain and the customer’s name as the local part (e.g., firstname.lastname@your-site.com). You have the option to customize this auto-generated email format.
By default, the newly created user does not receive any emails during account creation, though they will probably on order updates.
In the settings menu, there are options to:
– Check the box by default
– Send login credentials to the new customer
There are also additional options:
– Update new customer information by default
– Link customer orders
– Define the user role individually
– Set the user role for new customers
– Customize the auto-generated email format
– Edit the email subject for accounts created
– Change the sender’s email address
Settings Menu:
WooCommerce -> Add customer settings
Required Plugins: WooCommerce 4.7.0 or higher
Required PHP extension: Intl

FAQ
What role will the new user have?
– By default, the new user will have the “Customer” role. You can select a different default role from any available roles in the options menu.
What happens if an email already exists?
– A new user will not be created. The plugin will assign the order to the existing user with that email.
How can I link guest orders to users?
– Activate the option “Link customer orders” to associate guest orders with existing users.
Does the new user receive a notification about the created account?
– No, not by default. This can be enabled on the settings page. An email will then be sent to the customer with login credentials, including a random password.
Can I change the email template for the new customer?
– Yes, you can. Copy “new-account.php” from “wp-content/plugins/add-customer-for-woocommerce/templates/email” to “wp-content/themes/[your-theme/child-theme]/woocommerce/add-customer/email” and make your changes there.
Is it possible to change the email format?
– Yes. You can select the preferred format in the Settings menu of the plugin.
Are there any hooks I can use?
– Certainly! There are currently four filters:
wac_add_customer_email – To modify the email saved by the plugin.
wac_supported_fake_email_parts – To add custom fields support.
wac_get_user_roles – An array with the user roles a user is allowed to set.
wac_deactivate_user_emails – Allows you to override the deactivation of user emails
– And two actions:
wac_after_insert_new_customer – To execute after a new customer has been created.
wac_after_insert_updated_customer – To execute after an existing customer has been updated.
Consult the example file examples/hooks.php for more details how to use them.
I created a users before the update 1.9.0 and would like use the feature to suppress the emails from being sent.
– You can use the new hook “wac_deactivate_user_emails” for that. It has two parameters: $is_deactivated and $user_id. You can use this filter and return “true” for the users you like to suppress the messages.
