The delivery date is there since more than a year, at least! Search in the checkout tab for configuration settings.

How to Add delivery date in order mail?

Ey Max, I've checked the options but I don't see anyone related to including the value in the order e-mail.

How are customers/shop owners suppose to know the delivery date if it does not appear in the e-mail?

Yeah well in the backend details of an order it does but why not in the e-mail?

Milbo

$this->orderDetails['details']['BT']->delivery_date

tell me where it should be added in mail_html_header.php

Have no coding skills Max, I believe the logical place would be below or above the customer note or even in the shipping section for both customer e-mail and shop owner e-mail but any place is fine.

I believe it is essential to view the delivery date in the e-mail, please add it at least for VM3.

But with a switch, as it is not needed for downloadable products or for those ship products where the ship/delivery date is not yet known.

Agree but If someone chooses a delivery date we definetly need it in the email, both shop owners and customers.
