WooCommerce add order note to orderCompleted email

I am at my wits end here and have tried every solution I could find online for days and nothing works. The worst part is the problem should be solvable in about 4 lines of code but it just isn’t working.

What I need: When the order completed email goes out I want the order notes (not the customer notes, the actual Order Notes) added into the email. I can filter through them after but I cannot seem to get the notes to appear in the email at all. This is an example of an order note…on an order:

so far I have tried this code:

::PHP::

<?php
$comments = $order->get_customer_order_notes();
if($comments){
    echo '<h2>' . _e( 'Order Notes', 'woocommerce' ) . '</h2>';
    foreach($comments as $comment) {
        echo $comment->comment_content . '<br />';
    }
}
?>

which is basically what I need except its targeting the customer_order_notes, which are comments users add into the order when they place it. like: “my dog will pick up my package, his name is lucky”

I have also written a lugin to get the notes based off other peoples, the base is this:

::PHP::

add_action( 'woocommerce_email_order_meta', 'bl_add_order_notes_to_completed_email', 10 );

function bl_add_order_notes_to_completed_email() {
    global $woocommerce, $post;
    // If the order is not completed then don't continue.
//    if ( get_post_status( $post->ID ) != 'wc-completed' ){
//        return false;
//    }

    $args = array(
        'post_id' => $post->ID,
        'status'  => 'approve',
        'type'    => 'order_note'
    );

    // Fetch comments
    $notes = get_comments( $args );

    echo '<h2>' . _e( 'Order Notes', 'woocommerce' ) . '</h2>';
    echo '<ul class="order_notes" style="list-style:none; padding-left:0px;">';

    // Check that there are order notes
    if ( $notes ) {
        // Display each order note
        foreach( $notes as $note ) {
            ?>
            <li style="padding:0px -10px;">
                <div class="note_content" style="background:#d7cad2; padding:10px;">
                    <?php echo wpautop( wptexturize( $note->comment_content ) ); ?>
                </div>

                <p class="meta">
                    <abbr class="exact-date" title="<?php echo $note->comment_date; ?>"><?php printf( __( 'added on %1$s at %2$s', 'woocommerce-customer-order-notes-completed-order-emails' ), date_i18n( wc_date_format(), strtotime( $note->comment_date ) ), date_i18n( wc_time_format(), strtotime( $note->comment_date ) ) ); ?></abbr>
                    <?php if ( $note->comment_author !== __( 'WooCommerce', 'woocommerce-customer-order-notes-completed-order-emails' ) ) printf( ' ' . __( 'by %s', 'woocommerce-customer-order-notes-completed-order-emails' ), $note->comment_author ); ?>
                </p>
            </li>
            <?php
        }
    }
    echo '</ul>';
}

I don’t really know why that isnt working. It looks like it should but it does nothing.

If anyne has a solution that will print those notes into my email…like seen in this image…I will love you forever.

Answering this much later; but better than never. The final code I ended up using that worked and is still functioning as of today is the following:

?>
<h2><?php _e( 'Tracking ID', 'woocommerce' ); ?></h2>
<?php 
$comments =  $order->get_customer_order_notes();
$customer_comments = $order->get_order_notes();

foreach( $comments as $comment ){
    if ( strpos( $comment -> comment_content, "MyTracking" ) !== false ){
        echo $comment -> comment_content . '<br />';
    }
}
foreach( $customer_comments as $comment_2 ){
    if ( strpos( $comment_2 -> comment_content, "filterText" ) !== false ){
        echo $comment_2 -> comment_content . '<br />';
    }
}

This was put inside the email template customer-completed-order.php, taken from the woocommerce plugin’s templates/emails/ directory. I placed the code in at the desired location and put the customer-completed-order.php file in my child theme in it’s root directory within the following folders: woocommerce/emails/customer-completed-order.php

It then added both the customer and admin notes. I also added a filter, because my main goal was to get the tracking data posted to the admin order notes sent to the customer in their completed order email.
