I am using the wordpress plugin "WooCommerce Gift Coupon" which generates a PDF sent as attachment to the customer via mail. I want to display the current date in that PDF and already found the php file to edit (mail-template.php).
I tried to place the following code at several places within the body tag with no success:
<?php
$currentDateTime = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
echo $currentDateTime;
?>
I also tried it without opening and closing php tags. I either get an error or it displays the code as it is in the PDF document.
Here is the full code of mail-template.php:
<?php
/**

*
* Sets up the email template
*
* @author WooCommerce Gift Coupon
* @package WooCommerce Gift Coupon/Mail Template
*/
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {

How can I display the current date for example below the coupon code or in the top left/right corner? Here is a picture of the generated PDF Coupon as Example
The template saves all the HTML into one variable ($email) which will later be converted to a PDF. I you are adding to this you won't need to echo it out. The template below should work.
