Shopify Order Printer

Im not sure why there is so much bad feed back on this one.
It has helped my store campervanbuilders.com.au so much!

Easy one click to print, you can customise the code with chatgpt no issues!

My experience with Shopify has been excellent. I just used the packing slip instead of a custom order page. Then after about a month of using that my custom template showed up as a selection. Thank you!! I highly recommend Shopify, the customer service is excellent and when something doesn't work, it gets fixed by the tech people. I appreciate this company after building my own shop, using BigCommerce, Prestashop (until they became proprietary) and another app. Shopify is by far, the best I've used. Have been with them for years.

Worked for my needs. I needed an invoice and gift receipt that looked good and gave more information. This allowed me to do that easily.

Worked great for me! There were a few areas I had to fix but other than that, moving from legacy to this app was fairly easy.

Good to see the developers at shopify listened to how bad the first release of this app was. Recently, last week I think it was, there was a new import from templates put in place and I have to say, it is now exactly how all my old custom templates were and works how it should. I am happy with this new implemented import that they have done.

This update is a significant improvement for us! We now have the ability to include more detailed information in our invoices and packing lists, thanks to the use of metafields, customer notes, and a wide range of variables and styles. While the new requirement for object names in variable names was unexpected, it ultimately allowed us to enhance our documents exactly how we wanted. It would have been convenient to automatically transfer the old Order Printer Templates, but we understand it’s a complex task.

Overall, great job on this much-needed upgrade!

This is a great app for sending invoices to customers. I haven't had any issues so far.

*editing the review to reflect the final outcome and thoughts! Original review below updated*

To anyone reading this who hasn't installed the app, please take the negative reviews lightly! Many of us came and reviewed right when the switch happened with a lot of frustration! The templates from the legacy app (no shade at all to the team who had it, the templates were lovely and I am sure they did the best they could with the tools they had at the time!) are very code-heavy, and a lot of that code is no longer needed in the new app. If you do not have a pre-existing template, this app will be great for you!

To those reading this who are frustrated by the issues, bugs, etc involved with the switch, please trust me when I say I was in your shoes! But please trust me when I say that this switch is better in the long run, and the team at Shopify will help you! They helped me, and Mike P. was able to get my templates working again.

After getting support from the team at Shopify, I have completely changed my mind about this app. The transition was difficult, but after talking with the team and seeing the fix they did to get my template to work, it really just came down to the amount of code that is no longer needed that caused the issue!

From what I can see, this version of the printer app operates on a more efficient level of coding. To the point that I feel confident with my minimal level of liquid that I could go in and update the templates (if not make my own!) On the previous app, the code was very complicated and hard to look through, but they have truly made it a lot easier!

I feel that as long as people are willing to work with the team at Shopify to get their templates moved over, the new app will be a great option moving forward!

--ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW--

At the moment if I could rate 0 I would. I will give 1 star to the friendly Shopify agents who are probably getting bombarded by requests from this.

This app is not user-friendly. At all. It has less functionality, if you don't know code at all, good luck. Even if you just copy the entirety of the code on your old template and paste it in, it doesn't work. When you do reach out for help, you are asked to look for lines in the code yourself which, thankfully I have a little knowledge in, but I can't imagine having to try and do that when you don't know code. I was also told I may need to get a Shopify Expert to look into the code, to which I said no. I am not going to pay someone to help me fix something that isn't broken so I can migrate to an app you are forcing us to move to.

Shopify is a great platform, and I am hoping they will make some SERIOUS improvements to this Order Printer soon because as of right now I stand with all the other 1 star reviews.

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.

Initially it wasn't easy to figure out the changes, but after figuring out it is working great better than before.
