Summary
1.8.3 gets PressedMail Pro ready for WooCommerce. With the free Woo Bridge companion, each WooCommerce email can go out through its own SMTP account and sender, built from a PressedMail template that fills in the order. Routed mail keeps the From name your shop set, and the WordPress Email tabs fit on a phone now.
Added
- Pro: with the PressedMail Woo Bridge companion active, Settings, WordPress Email gets a WooCommerce tab. Pick a template, an SMTP account and a sender for each WooCommerce email, and sync your customers into a contact list.
- Pro: templates and campaigns can use WooCommerce order fields such as
{{woo.order_number}}while the Woo Bridge is active. In a campaign, each contact's latest order fills them in.
Fixed
- The WordPress Email tabs wrap on a phone instead of pushing the settings page sideways.
- Pro: choosing a sender address for an email no longer replaces the From name your shop or plugin set. Only an SMTP account set to "Force the From address" still does.
- Pro: the WordPress Email "Send test" now reports the connection that really carried the message, instead of saying it did not go through SMTP.
- Pro: when an AI provider refuses the connection test, the error shows the status code and the provider's own reason, such as
HTTP 429 insufficient_quota, stays on the card instead of vanishing after a moment, and the activity log keeps it. - Pro: every AI request goes only to the address PressedMail checked for your provider. That now covers summaries, drafts, replies, auto-tagging and phishing checks, not only the connection test, and a second DNS answer can no longer send a request somewhere the check never saw.
Upgrade Notes
- Nothing to do. The Woo Bridge is a separate free download from your pressedmail.com account. It needs PressedMail Pro 1.8.3 or newer and WooCommerce 8.2 or newer.
