Case - additional email assumptions:
- digital product - pdf
- additional user field when purchasing - different / second destination e-mail address (optional field)
- after paying for the purchase, a standard post-purchase e-mail and an additional (second) e-mail with a defined text, invoice number and a link to download the PDF are sent to the address from the user's additional e-mail field
- the additional email has: description - different than the standard one, download link, invoice number
- if the additional field is left blank, an email with a download link is sent only to the buyer's email address (standard)
Thank you in advance for your answers
Tom

Hi,

HikaShop has no mechanism for the merchant to create new emails.
A plugin can however, plugin itself to HikaShop's events ( [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/6...r-documentation.html](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/62-hikashop-developer-documentation.html) ) and send an extra email.
For example, we released a few days ago a new "Review" plugin :
[ www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/121-review-plugin.html](https://www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/121-review-plugin.html)
This plugin will send a new email after an order is purchased to ask the customer to place a review.
The email of that plugin can even be customized via the menu System&gt;Emails of HikaShop.

So I see two options to do what you want:
- You ask a developer to develop a plugin from scratch to send the email.
- You purchase that review plugin and customize the email (or have a developer customize it for you) so that it contains what you want. Having the recipient email changed to the value of a custom field can be done as part of the customization process.

We could work on that customization process for you if necessary. I expect this to cost a few hundred euros.

Now, I can also propose an alternative:
Instead of sending a separate email, you could just add the value of the custom field as a CC of the original email sent to the customer after his purchase. This could be done with a small customization of the order status notification email of HikaShop (2 lines of PHP).
