Shopify Order Printer

UPDATE: Vast improvement with the new IMPORT feature that Shopify has just added. I imported my legacy templates into the Shopify Order Printer and they work perfectly and once again they look beautiful. Thank you for listening, Shopify, and for creating an easy way for shopowners who do not code or mess with liquid to easily recreate their order forms from a legacy app into your app. From a 1 star review to a 5 star review.

INITIAL REVIEW: Horrible, frankly. Confusing, not intuitive - you need html knowledge to customize and edit the code. I copied and pasted the code from my legacy app and even with that there are myriad changes that have to be made to add order number. correct date, add shipping. This new app is frustrating and sloppy. Absolutely no way to easily edit this code without vast html experience.

Terrible app! Shopify is forcing everyone to migrate without making it simple to do so. If you don't know how to code, it is impossible to do this. No easy way to copy an existing template across as they have changed all the variables.

SHOPIFY - You know what you have changed! Please provide us with a help page where we can simply paste our legacy template code, and the variables are automatically corrected. This will enable us to easily intergrate it into the new app.

I would NOT recommend this app. I have been forced to swap from the old order printer (legacy) to this new rubbish Shopify Order Printer. They gave instructions on how to migrate your old template over but I'm not familiar with coding so I can't do it. My invoice is missing things like gst, the shipping address, the discount amount, notes and other things.
Very unhappy!!!!!

If you de-select the "packing slip" option, it says unable to find order on shopify POS. I wish shopify would stop changing things that no-one has asked for and work on the multiple other issues in POS.

Horrible! All the other reviews are very accurate in that this new version is not even remotely better! If you have minimal to zero coding experience, your life with be completely difficult because there is no easy way to format a decent template. Shopify, please do better for all your shop owners. We spend a lot of time and money to curate things down to the smallest detail for our customers. Work with us, not against us!

This migration was fairly straightforward but you need to engage the same developer that wrote your original templates. Seems like the variables now need to be explicit, the types have been made consistent for things like addresses, and there is a better hierarchy now so you can drill down in a more logical way to the thing you want to include. If I was writing templates from scratch, I would prefer this over the old version. The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is how to make the borders as thick as the borders on the legacy version, but that is just my own shortcoming I think.

Able to customize this new template with no issues. Able to add image (logo) on it.

Updated the code manually but not very complicated. Need to have a basic understanding of coding, including CSS and liquid template.

I give it 4-star because of not able to automatically migrate templates from the old version.

The app says it is customizable, but it is not. you can not add logos, remove pricing, add instructions for use or anything. The legacy app was WAY better than this! DO NOT INSTALL.

Like others have said; typical Shopify wasting time and resources to "update" an app that didn't need updating, only to make it worse.

Importing our template from the old app also didn't work, it was missing information and came in much smaller and difficult to read. Frustrating as someone who paid for my template in the old app, because I will now need to pay more money to get a new template. A complete waste of money when the old app works fine.

UPDATE: Fabulous news, the new fucntionality allowing us to import templates from the old ( legacy) order printer app is BRILIANT! Thank you!! You listened. It works perfectly. 5 STAR!

Why oh why can't we have a tempate builder? Why do we need to be coders? I used the originl Order Pinter app for years and it was great...you purchased templates from its sister app and had the WYSIWYG functionality to help you to adapt it. Perfect. Now, I am not able to modfiy your new layouts to fit my label paper, for instance..I use S3 integrated label paper to create picking lists and to add shipping-to labels onto the order! Like almost everyone who runs a small business, I imagine? So I have bought another app...VERY unhappy, Shopify. Your TWo designs - packing and invoice - are rubbish and dont work for me...why can't i use the code from the old app? Why does your system reject it? NOT HAPPY
