Hello,
Is there a way to add an “item count” field to the packing slip?
Thanks,

Hi Matt,
Copy the below code snippet to your active theme’s functions.php file and put the placeholder [wfte_order_total_quantity] anywhere in the active packing slip template’s HTML (Invoice/Packing > Packing slip > Customize > Code) to display the total quantity on the packing slip document.
/* include total number of items */
add_filter('wf_pklist_alter_find_replace','wt_pklist_total_order',10,6);
function wt_pklist_total_order($find_replace, $template_type, $order, $box_packing, $order_package, $html)
{
if($template_type == 'packinglist')
{
$item_count=$order->get_item_count();
$find_replace['[wfte_order_total_quantity]']=__('Total Items : ').$item_count;
}
return $find_replace;
}

Love this plugin. Just purchased yesterday and I am sure once all challenges are fixed it will be perfect.
Is there a way in the packing slip to use the footer section as a way to personalize the packing slip.
For example, I put this in the customizer:
A note from the shop
Hi , <<<<<——– bthis is what I need.
Thank you once again for purchasing a handmade item from me. I deeply appreciate your business.
Sincerely,
Lewis

Hi Lewis,
You can add any static text to the packing slip by altering the packing slip template HTML code (Invoice/Packing > Packing slip > Customize > Code) using the standard HTML tags.

Hello! I want the packing slip to display a custom field created for my products through ACF. How can I achieve that? Only, in the packing slip, not in the invoice. Can this be done in the pro version only, or in the free version too?
Mike

Hi Filip,
Our premium plugin supports adding any order meta or product meta to the documents and labels. With that method, you can add the product meta information to the packing slip if you know the meta key used for that field. Here is our set-up article which you can refer to for a better understanding.

Hi Leandro,
Thanks for reaching out. Could you please share the screenshots of the WooCommerce order edit page (from the backend) of a particular order and its corresponding packing slip via this link for a better understanding?

Hi
Does your plugin also supports custom fields in packing slips and delivery notes or not? As we have few fields in our checkout page which we want to show in packing slips and delivery notes.
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks

Hi Rahul,
Our premium plugin supports adding any order meta or product meta to the documents and the labels. With that method, you can add the checkout field information as order meta to the packing slip and the delivery note if you know the meta key used for that field. Here is our set-up video tutorial and article which you can refer to add the meta information.

Hi,
Can this plugin print 200 packing slips at once?
Mike
September 27, 2021
Hi Kristy,
Thanks for reaching out. You can use the bulk action option located on the WooCommerce order page to bulk print the packing slip. Try to print the Packing slip from the Bulk action option, after selecting the number of orders you wish to have in the packing slip from that particular Woocommerce order page.

i need different addresses to be printed for different products in packing slip,is that possible
Mike
August 15, 2021
Hi,
The labels are generated according to your WooComemerce order edit page. Presently our plugin doesn’t offer any options for printing different addresses for different products on the packing slip.

Hi. Can this packing list/slip display Shipping Tel Number at Shipping detail section (not as Customer Notes as shown above, as that requires additional process for my packing team to copy as paste).
Mike

Thanks for reaching out to us. By using the custom template editor provided with our premium plugin you can alter the “Tel:” field position according to your need.

Is there a way to make a packing list per line item in order? Rather than per ITEM in order – say someone is buy 150 of item A and 150 of item B – I would like just two packing slips – rather than 300
Mark

Pack items individually option will create one label per quantity. So currently we don’t have an option as per your requirement.

Very superficial reply to janet and documentation
So you write “Existing Order Meta” but no where do your documentation explain WHAT an ORDER META Look like? How about CREATE a page with a list of the META you can use?
Mark
September 17, 2019
Hi,
Since the metadata vary from site to site and it will depend on the additional plugin that users install in their site that are related to orders, it is not possible to list out all order meta. To give you an idea, the data in the custom fields are of order details page is an example for order meta.

Mark

Mark

Hi,
You can add custom fields or metadata stored with order details on the packing list via the Additional Fields > Add Existing Order Meta. You can use the database key in which the data is stored as meta key and enter a field name of your choice that will be displayed.
Reach us via support link above for further queries. We will be publishing an article soon documenting these separately.
