- The option I have surrounded in red is where the order confirmation is set for logged-in customers.
- The option I have surrounded in blue is where the order confirmation is set for guest customers.
- The option I have surrounded in green is where you can enter which email addresses to send order confirmation email copies to.
Make note of the name in the dropdown.
As a reminder, the following are just examples. Please refer to your website's admin panel for what your actual email template is set as.

- For guests, you would use New Order for Guest. As stated above, the (Default) is just indicating this is the default setting and is NOT a part of the template name.
