Can you preview a wp_mail

In WordPress, you can use the wp_mail function to send an email. However, by default, this function does not provide a way to preview the email before it's sent.

But, there are a few ways to preview the email:

Method 1: Use a plugin

You can use a plugin like "WP Mail Log" or "Email Log" which allows you to log and preview emails sent using wp_mail. These plugins will store the email content in the database, and you can view the email content before it's sent.

Method 2: Use a filter

You can use a filter to modify the wp_mail function and store the email content in a variable. Then, you can use that variable to preview the email.

Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates this approach:

function preview_wp_mail($args) {
    $email_content = $args['message'];
    // Do something with the email content, like storing it in a variable
    return $email_content;
}
add_filter('wp_mail', 'preview_wp_mail');

In this example, the preview_wp_mail function is called before the email is sent, and it stores the email content in the $email_content variable. You can then use this variable to preview the email.

Method 3: Use a custom function

You can create a custom function that sends the email using wp_mail, and then returns the email content. You can then use this function to preview the email.

Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates this approach:

function send_and_preview_email($to, $subject, $message) {
    $email_content = wp_mail($to, $subject, $message);
    return $email_content;
}

In this example, the send_and_preview_email function sends the email using wp_mail, and then returns the email content. You can then use this function to preview the email.

I hope these methods help you preview the email sent using wp_mail!
