pierreE	After updating WPML Multilingual CMS, the email confirmations we receive when we receive a new order and when customers receive an order show the incorrect email subject. We see the following email subject: [{site_title}] New Customer Order ({order_number}) - {order_date} When it should be: [Envirocycle] New Customer Order (8048) - April 20, 2018 Please provide a fix ASAP. Thank you! Lisa Screen Shot 2018-04-20 at 10.03.23.png

pierreE	Hello, I also contacted WooCommerce for support and they provided the following response: "I see the ticket thanks! Several other users already contacted us about this and we identified that this is being caused by the WPML. This component, in particular, is causing it in their update: WPML Multilingual CMS: door OnTheGoSystems – 3.9.4 We ask you to please contact WPML to resolve this further as it is their plugin not working correctly at the moment." Thank you, Lisa

Vincenzo Supporter Languages: English (English ) Italian (Italiano ) Timezone: Europe/Rome (GMT+02:00)	Hello, this issue has been escalated to our developers. While waiting that we release a new version, you can try the following workaround: - Open the /wp-content/woocommerce-multilingual/inc/class-wcml-emails.php file. - Comment out (or remove) lines 138 and 139 - Save and upload the file // add_filter( 'woocommerce_email_heading_new_order', array( $this, 'new_order_email_heading' ) ); // add_filter( 'woocommerce_email_subject_new_order', array( $this, 'new_order_email_subject' ) ); Let us know if it helps.

I	Thanks for the suggested fix Vincenzo. Did this not get tested before release, seems like a easy bug to pick up on? Do you have a release date for the fix? Thanks, Ian.
