Can you be super specific for the whole code?

You’d need more additional code to get the array of shipping methods, > then check to see if the method you want is in that array to add your notices. * Plugin Contributor [Mike Jolley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikejolley/) * (@mikejolley) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-instructons-for-local-pickup/#post-7158592) * This is true, however the code I posted still works and returns the first found shipping method. You only have 1 per order so it doesn’t matter. * Thread Starter [beezwings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/beezwings/) * (@beezwings) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-instructons-for-local-pickup/#post-7158617) * Hi, I tried that, but then the email just returns: “local pickup” but I don’t need the email to say that; I want the email to say, “The instructions for local pickup are come to this address between 2-4pm etc. …” when the person has selected local pickup. * Thanks for your persistance. * Jessie * Plugin Contributor [Mike Jolley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikejolley/) * (@mikejolley) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-instructons-for-local-pickup/#post-7158620) * This was just to see what was returned. If it says ‘local pickup’ use that string in your previous if/else statement. * Thread Starter [beezwings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/beezwings/) * (@beezwings) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-instructons-for-local-pickup/#post-7158621) * Oh, wow! I just realized I had to use “Local Pickup” instead of “local_pickup” because it was looking for the actual output. Gee, thanks! So sorry it took so much back and forth, and I appreciate your patience.

Make sure the string matches what was echo’d. * Also before you forgot to include the brackets for the function name. * Thread Starter [beezwings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/beezwings/) * (@beezwings) * [10 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-instructons-for-local-pickup/#post-7158623) * (Just edited my previous response.
