I’m using current versions: WC Vendors 1.9.14, WooCommerce 3.3.5, Storefront 2.2.8, and WordPress 4.9.5. My theme is a Storefront child.<\/p>\n

I want to modify the email message sent to users when they apply for vendorhood. I’ve copied and then modified this template:<\/p>\n

\/wp-content\/plugins\/wc-vendors\/templates\/emails\/application-status.php<\/code>
\nto:
\n\/wp-content\/themes\/MYTHEME\/wc-vendors\/emails\/application-status.php<\/code><\/p>\n

per the instructions in “Changing the Vendor Templates”:
\nhttps:\/\/docs.wcvendors.com\/knowledge-base\/changing-the-vendor-templates\/<\/p>\n

The email sent to users remains the WC Vendors original without my modifications.<\/p>\n

In troubleshooting, to make sure that no new PHP code could interfere with the process, I’ve added a simple text string to the HTML output of the template but it doesn’t appear in the received message.<\/p>\n

I am able to successfully override other WC Vendor templates, e.g. front\/vendor-main-header.php<\/code>, as well as Storefront and WooCommerce templates.<\/p>\n

Could you please verify that this email template can be properly overridden by a child theme? For example, is the email sent out by a cron job that’s operating independently and isn’t aware of the child theme?<\/p>\n

If the problem is on my end, please suggest what I might check to pinpoint my bug.<\/p>\n

Thanks,
