## Kuvaus

WooCommerce sends an email to the store admin every time an item is placed on backorder.
There is no built-in toggle to disable this — the only options in WooCommerce  Settings
Emails control the email template, not whether it sends at all.

This plugin removes that notification cleanly, with no options page and no bloat.

**What it does:**

 * Prevents the ”Product Backorder” admin notification email from being sent
 * Has no effect on any other WooCommerce emails
 * Does not affect the customer’s order confirmation or any other customer-facing
   emails
 * Works automatically on activation — no configuration required

**Who is this for?**

Store owners who use backorders as a standard fulfilment method and find the admin
notification emails unnecessary or disruptive. If your warehouse team or fulfilment
process handles backorders without needing an email trigger, this plugin removes
the noise.

## Asennus

 1. Upload the `disable-backorder-emails` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory,
    or install via Plugins  Add New in your WordPress dashboard.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu.
 3. That’s it. No configuration needed.

## UKK

### Will this affect emails sent to customers?

No. This only suppresses the admin-facing backorder notification. Customer order
confirmations and any other customer emails are unaffected.

### Does this affect other WooCommerce email notifications?

No. Only the backorder admin notification is removed. All other WooCommerce emails
continue to function normally.

### Is there a settings page?

No. The plugin works on activation with no configuration. If you want backorder 
emails re-enabled, simply deactivate the plugin.

### Does this work with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)?

Yes. The plugin hooks into WooCommerce’s email system rather than order storage,
so it is fully compatible with HPOS.
