Hi there, @READBookBus 👋 Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Seller Community! We are happy to have you join us here. Welcome!

This sounds strange, indeed. Would you mind walking through these specific troubleshooting steps? We want to make sure that both your browser, as well as your device itself are both us to date. 

Keep us updated on your progress!

I am having the same experience when trying to edit the order confirmation. I have tried 3 different browsers and 2 different computers and all have the same result. I am unable to edit the template so that it is relevant to my business situation. 

Hi there, @zymer - thanks for flagging this over to us here on the Seller Community. So sorry to hear that this issue is prolonged for you.

What specifically is happening when trying to edit the order confirmation? - are you not able to select certain fields within the order? 

I know that you mentioned that you tried multiple devices, but have you also made sure that your device software is fully up to date? What kind of device are you using?

I am having this issue and yes my browser and software are uptodate. Where do I go so that the confirmation email is populated with the correct information? Obviously, even though I go where it says edit email, I cannot edit the body of the email, just header and footer. I have clicked on everything and can't find it. Literally have spent hours on this. Please help. 

Hi there @mrchi, and welcome to the Seller Community!

I merged the thread you commented into with another one, where I explained how to edit the order confirmation email and pickup instructions. If you don't find the answer to your question here, please let me know so we can dig in more with you ✨

I'm having the exact same problem!

Did the steps listed in the Best Answers in the thread you posted into help, @floracalgary?
One outlines how to edit the confirmation email and the other will walk you through how to edit your pickup instructions.

Are you having difficulty following those directions?
Or are neither of those relevant to what you're trying to edit?

I'll keep my eyes peeled for your response! 👀 

Hi! Thanks for reaching out! Aside from editing the pickup instructions, which I've included below, make sure your prep time aligns with when you want the orders picked up. This could also be causing the trouble. 

In order to edit your pickup instructions and check your pickup prep times you will need to go to Pickup & Delivery on your Online Store Dashboard then select your location you want to edit. Scroll down until you see Pickup Settings (at the bottom) and click "Edit." Scroll to the bottom again and you can edit the text to give your customers their pickup instructions.

Don't forget to hit save either. 🙂

Also, can you please provide a link to the article you found that was out of date? I would love to take a look at it and see if I need to edit it or simply archive it. Thank you!

I'm feeling lost here, behind the scenes on square this year! My square account is used for selling CSA shares for a farmer co-op that I help run. I have not worked on the site since last summer and it seems like everything has changed! I am finding it impossible to change the automated message that each customer receives upon a purchase, aka: pick up date/time. These are very important details that I need to change ASAP! Help please.

@ncff Welcome back!! We have been making a lot of changes to the online store. I've merged your post to another thread that I think will answer your question. Of course, don't hesitate if you have any follow up ones!

I was able to reach their support people last week, and I finally understood. That test email that you can send to yourself will show your modified header stuff, but won’t show your pick up instructions. However whatever you put in the pick up section WILL be there in a real confirmation email.  I found it hard to trust that, but the support guy placed a fake order on my site so I could actually see it.   Hope that helps, but happy to answer more questions if I can. 

Thank you for your reply. My text in the confirmation email doesn’t match what I have in my pick up instructions. I’m not talking about the test email. It doesn’t match in the actual confirmation email that customers receive. 

So are you talking about what you see when you attempt to edit the confirmation email, or did you (or someone else) do a test purchase to see what comes up?

Same issue here. In my location settings (Settings --> Pickup & Delivery --> Edit location), I edited the Pickup Instructions field to read "Picking up in store? Your order will be on our Contact-Free pickup table near the entrance. Prefer curbside pickup? Just call when you've arrived and we'll run your order out to you!"

When the customer receives an order confirmation email (their ACTUAL email, not a test), the pickup instructions read "To pick up your order, call +1 703-933-8787 when you are outside the pickup location." Looks like some generic message that is being plugged in there.

So, my settings do not match ACTUAL order confirmation emails. Can someone help?

Strangely, we had one order come in at 10:28 this morning with the incorrect Pickup Instructions. Then, 20 minutes later, we had another order come in from a different customer for the same item at the same location and the pickup instructions are correct. Maybe something just got fixed?

That’s the exact wording my confirmation email to the customer says. But it doesn't match what I have in my settings, just like you. It does seem it’s a generic message like you said. I hope someone has a fix. 

Hi @Foxvalleypottee, @JulieK_OSG, and @Cheesetique - I moved your posts over to this thread where I provided in-depth instructions for editing order-related emails sent to your customers following a purchase.

I wanted to follow up with a second post to clarify how to edit the pickup instructions email sent out to customers who are placing an order for pickup. You'll start by heading to your Square Online Dashboard, then Settings > Pickup & Delivery > select a location to edit > scroll down to Pickup Settings, and click to edit:
 

If neither the steps in this thread nor the steps listed above allow you to edit the verbiage your customers are seeing, can you please respond here, quoting the exact verbiage you are seeing that you are unable to edit? Thanks for your help!

[Info in this post has been redacted for your privacy and security]

Thank you for your response.  However, as stated before, the text I have in my settings isn't the text that is given to a customer in the confirmation email.  

When I go to my Dashboard then Settings > Pickup & Delivery > select a location to edit > scroll down to Pickup Settings, and click to edit:

This is what I have in my settings:

"If you are pre-ordering for in-studio painting, we will match your order with your reservation and have your items ready for you at your table upon arrival. If ordering for Pottery-To-Go, you may pick up at curbside anytime. We will reach out to you for pick up time have your items in our pick up box outside the door at your requested time if it is outside our business hours."

This is what the Customer email says

Pickup Instructions

To pick up your order, call +1 224-xxx-xxxx when you are outside the pickup location.
