How to Change Shopify e-mail template?

Topic summary

Main issue: Add a specific delivery start date to Shopify order confirmation emails for pre-orders.

Context: The store is taking pre-orders and wants the email to state that deliveries begin on 13 Dec. An image was attached that likely shows the desired placement/wording, which is central to understanding the formatting need.

Guidance provided: A responder linked to a previous community thread and advised following the first reply’s step-by-step instructions for inserting a selected date and time into the confirmation email template. They asked the poster to try those steps and report back.

Decisions/outcomes: No in-thread code or settings were shared; the solution is deferred to the linked resource.

Status: Unresolved/ongoing. Action item: Implement the instructions from the linked thread and verify if the date displays correctly in the confirmation email. Open question: Whether the suggested method works for this store’s setup and template.
