Displaying Shortcodes in Email

Hello,

I have a custom email template and I want to display a custom shortcode. It looks fine in the site and woocommerce email preview. I tried including it in a woocomerce email template. However, the script shows up. I’m using Customer new account email template and have removed most of the content in the body:

`<?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[short_code_sample]’ );?>`

In my functions.php, I have a function that creates the email. I do receive the email but the short code doesn’t render:

&#x200B;

$mailer = WC()->mailer();

//format the email

$recipient = “[email protected]”;

$subject = “Upcoming Webinars!”;

$body = file\_get\_contents(get\_parent\_theme\_file\_path() .’/woocommerce/emails/custom-email.php’);

$headers = “Content-Type: text/html\\r\\n”;

&#x200B;

//send the email through wordpress

$mailer->send( $recipient, $subject, $body, $headers );
