Shipping Label Size – You can choose either full page or set custom size for the shipping label.
- Full Page: This option allows you to print the label which will be spread over the full page. The printing depends on the browser printing option.
- Custom: This option allows you to print the label in the desired size. You can configure a custom shipping label size of your own by entering size values in terms of width and height (inches).

Hi Team,
I am having issues with my tracking number not showing up when I go the print labels. It shows up in the customize tab when I preview it there, however, when I go to print labels out of woocommerce it does not appear. I didn’t make any changes to the code either. Any thoughts here on what the issue may be?

Hi Andrew,
By default, the barcode is generated based on the invoice number. Kindly make sure that the invoice number is already generated.
However, you can copy the below-mentioned code snippet to your active theme’s functions.php if you want to generate the barcode based on your order number. Try this out and let us know how it works.
add_filter('wf_pklist_alter_barcode_data','wf_pklist_alter_barcode_data_fn',10,3);function wf_pklist_alter_barcode_data_fn($invoice_number, $template_type, $order)
{
return $order->get_order_number();
}
Please go through this article and follow the instructions to add the tracking number to the documents.

Hello. Is there a way to bulk print shipping labels and packing slips together, meaning order 100 label and packing slip, then order 101 label and packing slip, etc. Or do I have to bulk print first all the labels and then second all the packing slips and collate them?
Mike
February 27, 2022
Hi Phil,
Thanks for reaching out to us. We understand your requirement. However, presently our plugin doesn’t offer any options to bulk print two or more documents types together, you have to print them individually. Thanks for understanding.

Hello,
How can I place the company logo in the middle of the shipping label? I tried to CSS codes: float centre, float right, added margin to the left etc. but it’s not shifting
Thank you

Hi Katie,
Thanks for reaching out. You can create a new div with your desired styles to place the logo in the middle of the shipping label. If you find any difficulties in doing that, kindly share your shipping label template HTML code via this link.

I like the pro plugin so far, but ran into an issue. Client wants to add products ordered to the shipping list, because they are using it for a food orders and it is not being actually shipped out (just works with the print labels they have, multiple per page). But any attempt to get the products ordered on there does not work. Is there something I can put into the code, snippet or an edit, that will allow for the product table to show?

hi guys, is it possible to have a pdf size of 50x100mm instead of an A4 format?
Mike

Hi Marco,
Thanks for reaching out. Our WooCommerce PDF Invoices, Packing Slips, Delivery Notes & Shipping Labels will let you print labels on any type of printer configured on your PC. Some labels depend on the size of paper used though. The shipping label and address label support to set custom label size, which you can configure for any paper size.

Hi Mubarak,
Presently the tracking number is generated based on the invoice number. You can add your own tracking number by adding the respective tracking number meta to Invoice/Packing > General Settings > Advanced > Tracking number meta field.

I am very confused. Does this app integrate with USPS directly? I set up the add-on with the assumption that when it creates a shipping label it would automatically generate and charge me a USPS shipping label?
Mark

Hi Joshua,
Sorry to let you down, but this plugin does not integrate with any shipping or courier services to generate prepaid labels. You can only create customized generic shipment labels with the template that you choose.

I’m looking to print shipping labels per item rather than per order. I saw Mark’s reply to Adrian Smith, stating that “You can choose the pack items individually option under plugin general settings > Advanced tab such that the shipping labels are generated per each item in the order.”
I am not seeing an ‘Advanced’ tab. Is this because I am using the free version?
Mark
May 21, 2021
Hi Daniel,
You are right in your assumption. That feature is currently available in the premium version of the plugin only.

Hi Rafik,
You can use the placed holder [wfte_product_table_payment_total] in the HTML template of the shipping label to add order total in the same. Go to Shipping label settings > Customize > Code view to insert it.

Sorry guys, I’ve noticed that function is yet implemented but, for some reason, it’s not working on my site since several weeks ago. I will try to address the problem before opening a support ticket.
Thank you very much.

Hello guys, thanks very much for your hard work
Im about to buy you plugin for a client, I see that you can send an invoice automatically when a order status is completed, thats great, but is possible to automatically print the shipping label and the invoice too when a order status is completed?
if not, is possible to pay for such customization?
Thanks very much.
Mark

We have cloud print support using which you can configure automatic printing of invoices. The shipping label does not support this feature.

Mark

Yes. Go to Shipping label settings and under General tab go to option “Enable print shipping label option for order status” and choose the order status processing there. Once done, users will have a button print shipping label.

Hi There,
Does this shipping label works with this woocommerce order barcodes https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-order-barcodes/ ? It seems the barcode that generated from your shipping label is based on the order number, am I right?
Thanks,
Queenie
Mark

Yes. The barcode will be generated based on order number.

This would be a useful label but the description of it seems to leave out some use cases:
1. When is a shipping label used? I’m assuming its the label that goes onto the box that is used by the delivery system: Australia Post or DHL for example. As such what happens when an order consists of multiple boxes? A label will be required for each box and it should also have a box count viz., box 2 of 6 or Box 4/5
2. If I’m printing multiple orders and the number of boxes makes it possible, can I print multiple labels on the one-sheet for multiple orders? E.g. on a sheet designed with a 5 x 2 label layout could it print: Order 1 with three boxes: 3 labels, Order 2 with five boxes: 5 labels, Order 3 with one box: 1 label and so on to fill the 10 labels available on that sheet?
3. If I have a roll feed thermal printer, e.g. a DYMO Labelwriter, and an order with 5 boxes, can i set it up to print the five labels consecutively?
4. As to box dimensions, If I specify a number of boxes with different dimensions, does the plugin choose which box goes with which product or do I specify it somewhere. E.g. I have two products and two boxes (the original boxes the products came in). Some orders will come in that are big enough that they can be fulfilled with completely filled boxes of the product plus maybe a final box filled with a mixture of the two products. Will the plugin work that out? How can I help it?
Mark
July 13, 2020
Hi Adrian,
1. If you are using Australia Post or DHL, it would be better if you use some other plugin that generates integrated labels with these services. Our plugin only generates generic shipping labels, that can be used if you are shipping the items manually.
2. You can print multiple shipping labels on the same page.
3. You can choose the pack items individually option under plugin general settings > Advanced tab such that the shipping labels are generated per each item in the order.
4. The plugin checks the dimension and weight you entered in the product details(product edit page) and compare it with the dimensions of the box you specified in the plugin settings to determine which goes into which.
