Shopify Order Printer

I assumed I could just copy over the code from the old app, but it no longer works as the subtotal / total fields no longer add up. Why change something with no support or at least option to customise the look and design of the invoice?

Absolutely appaling, order printer wasn't great but this is far worse, I was hoping it would at least have the ability to produce credit notes, not a chance it looks like they have just taken the data which the original app used and then put it together with awful formatting.

It doesn't even show your VAT number! What use is that? It also shows the website name instead of the correct business name so totally useless as a VAT invoice.

I won't go into the packing note showing pricing, or the order list with the date overwriting the order number.

Was this coded by a schoolboy with zero business experience?

This was an opportunity to produce a really useful app and instead we have this pile of poo.

Absolutely awful I need a magnifying glass to read the so called new improved Order Printer. To be honest one star is generous it should be zero.
Not sure what has improved as I haven't found one yet! Will continue using Legacy until August and hope common sense prevails but not holding my breath!
I don't understand code so have no idea how to alter anything so lets look for a new app!

Wow, this is just laughably bad.

Discount codes do not populate, amount paid is not included (which makes it look like the invoices and packing slips are unpaid), payment method left off...nothing about this is an improvement.

I will hold out hope that Shopify makes this app functional by August.

New order print is horrible. There are no sku's on the invoices and it is including my corporate information and DBA on the invoice. Totally NOT wanted. Can't figure out how to fix it

Im working with support now as I agree with most of these reviews. There are issues with this new app. In my opinion, the "legacy" app had a much cleaner look and should continue to be supported. I sent 12-13 orders to the printer yesterday and all did not populate. This was after spending 6 hours with the help of chat gpt to get the code right to have the finished form look like our original form that all in our shop and customer base are used to looking at. The legacy app is good until August 2024 so don't be in a hurry to update any time soon.

Update: All the bugs look to be worked out. Without the help of Chat GPT, it would have been difficult to customize the template. All is well now and using it daily

This is not a good move by Shopify. As others have mentioned, this app is not as good as the legacy version. We could have multiple templates for B2B, B2C, gifts, drop shipments, etc. Now we get two, and the packing slip has prices by default, which is a HUGE no-no. Can be removed, but you have to edit the liquid code directly, which is not an option for a lot of customers. And, as others have mentioned, you cannot copy-paste your old templates here, as many variables have changed names, seemingly arbitrarily. You need to understand the liquid code in order to modify them, and they still don't look good without further tweaking. I am not good at coding, so they still look...not so good.

To make this app better, please add:

1. More templates
2. WYSIWYG editor, or another way to modify the template without code
3. An easier way to migrate templates
4. Easy way to add pictures, QR codes, and other media
5. A packing slip that does not include prices by default

If you can't match even the basics of what the legacy app provided, please do not make us migrate.

I was able to set up my previous templates here because I have some coding experience, but I think it would be difficult for those without any coding experience to do so. The help documentation only shows how to code some lines, and you cannot directly copy and paste over the old code (it won't format properly).

Even after I set up the templates the way I'd like and the previews showed the correct format, when I try to print multiple packing slips, whole sections of orders are just missing in the printout. It's impossible to use even if you get the templates set up correctly.

I will be continuing to use the legacy printer until either it expires or this app gets fixed.

I think people just jumped on to write a review before really diving into the new app. I successfully transferred all of my old templates. Although, I did have to rework them a little bit.

I am not sure about adding images, but that isn't something we utilize so can't help combat that negative review. Overall, it was an easy switch and it's an easy app to use.

Moving the logo over can be hard to figure out but follow the documentation. I ended up dropping the image code for my logo on line 4 (vs #7 as per the example) to get my logo centered at the top of the page.
Regarding printing: You'll find both the radio buttons for "Invoice" and "Packing Slip" are checked by default. To default to only one, look at the top of the "Template" page for both pages and uncheck the one you don't want to have auto-populate.
