✅ v4.4.8: WooCommerce Email Preview - Output Buffer Fix

The Real Solution

Uses output buffering with regex to physically REMOVE admin HTML elements from the rendered page before they reach the browser.

What gets removed:

  • #wpcontent - admin page wrapper
  • #wpbody-content - dashboard content area
  • #wpadminbar - top WordPress admin bar
  • #adminmenuwrap + #adminmenuback - admin menu
  • Dashboard widgets (.postbox)
  • All notice/warning divs

Why This Works

  1. ✅ Actually REMOVES HTML (not just CSS hiding)
  2. ✅ No admin code execution in preview
  3. ✅ No performance waste from rendering unnecessary content
  4. ✅ No timing issues or hook ordering problems

Installation

Auto-updater will detect v4.4.8 and offer update (since 4.4.7 is already deployed)
