function ts_add_free_gift_on_scheduled_status( $order_id ) {
    // Check if the current post type is 'shop_order'
    if ( 'shop_order' === get_post_type( $order_id ) ) {
        // Get the order
        $order = wc_get_order( $order_id );

        $product_id = '470'; // Replace with the actual product ID of the free gift

        // Check if the order status is 'scheduled' and the free product has not been added yet
        if ( 'scheduled' === $order->get_status() && ! order_has_specific_product( $product_id, $order ) ) {
            $product = wc_get_product( $product_id );
            $order->add_product( $product );
            $order->calculate_totals(); // Calculate taxes, totals, and save (method includes save() method)
        }
    }
}

// Hook to add the free gift when order status is changed to 'scheduled'
add_action( 'woocommerce_order_status_changed', 'ts_add_free_gift_on_scheduled_status', 10, 1 );

// Function to check if a specific product is in the order
function order_has_specific_product( $product_id, $order ) {
    // Loop through order items to check if a product is in the current order
    foreach ( $order->get_items() as $item ) {
        if ( in_array( $product_id, array( $item->get_product_id(), $item->get_variation_id() ) ) ) {
            return true;
