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!

After a long winded process in transferring my existing tempates, the problems have been solve and it works as it should.
Thank you for your review and feedback. We switched over to a different tech stack that provides a better foundation to grow and roll out features. We are always looking to improve, so we appreciate you taking the time to explain your pain points with our app. -Emily, Shopify Support

I really can't see ANY benefits to this new app. We copied our templates and it's unusable. After a few hours we had got it almost back to as it was by changing the variables. Luckily I know a bit of liquid coding but I know many do not. What was the point in that in all that work - what have I gained? Shopify say there is going to be a migration tool coming soon... I don't think it can come soon enough.

the new templates do not make any invoice totals.... while the legacy version was doing just great....
Thank you for sharing this feedback. The Shopify Order Printer app should be able to calculate the totals in the invoices. However, if you require assistance with customizing the template, then this is something that our Theme Support team can help you with. Simply visit the Shopify Help Center (https://shopify.link/vRnL) and let our advisors know that you'd like to create a customization request. Cheers. -Elias, Shopify Support

Do not remove the legacy order printer until you get at least a 4-star rating. The new printer performance is absolutely terrible and unacceptable and currently not compatible with 3rd party product option and variance apps.
Hi there. Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, we truly appreciate it. As I can completely understand the impact of this change, I've gone ahead and shared your feedback with our developers. - Blair, Shop Support

Shopify forcing the migration without putting any measures in place to help support template migration is a joke. Shopify is not the company they were 10 years ago, absolute travesty. *** UPDATE *** Using the app further it is far and above a DOWNGRADE from the previous Order Printer app. Shopify is USELESS in assisting with migrating order templates. I have had to figure out liquid coding on my own and even then it barely works. This app is terrible and Shopify should be ashamed for their complete and utter failure to migrate effectively. Shopify is a shell of what it once was.
Hello! Thank you for your feedback and your review. We do have some information on transferring templates over to the new app in our Help Center here: https://shopify.link/18NL. We updated the app to improve its performance, but we can completely understand how changes like this can impact merchants. I'm happy to pass this feedback on to our team who looks into improvements we can make. - Moira, Shopify Support

POOR Product rollout! Programming experience over 30 years and took me a day and a half to re configure the template we use. The Shopify Help Center documentation is inconstant: 'weight' variable' to be changed to 'grams' for some reason, then farther down is says change 'grams' to 'weight' . Proofing and ask the question 'WHY' do we need to change the variable name seems to be a needed thing. Also, WHY would you put pricing on the shipper template? Also, one of the reasons you say the changes were needed was to save paper and ink. Well, Your new invoice template was printing a blank sheet of paper before printing the invoice. I expect better quality control from Shopify and feel bad for the MANY that now have to pay someone to try and RE Fix their templates so they can become usable again.

This app is a desaster. I tried to use the template of the old order printer app which I was using now for years and have translated it, since my shop is in German. The new version just deletes my translation. When I copied my translated template from the old version of Order Printer to the new version it didn't work. Please stop dictating customers which app to use if you don't have the minimal of foresight that there are people acting in a different language than English.
Hi, there! Thanks for taking the time to review the Shopify Order Printer App. We recognize the effort you've put into tailoring the Order Printer templates to fit the unique needs of your business. As you probably noticed, legacy custom templates, while fully supported, are currently not automatically migrated to the new Shopify Order Printer app. To assist you with this transition, we have updated the Migration guide here: (https://shopify.link/Gxo2) to include examples for the most common customizations. -Maz, Shopify Support

I don't think I've ever been more mad at a developer than I am at the Shopify devs right now. They've bugged the legacy invoice generator and are too stupid to just roll it back like any other platform would do. The fact they apparently don't have regression testing for the biggest e-commerce platform on Earth is mind boggling.
Hi there! Thank you for reaching out and sharing your review. We appreciate your input, and I want to assure you that your comments are valuable to us. We will share your feedback with our product development team for review. - Moira, Shopify Support

JUNE 24 - While we were able to successfully import our template from the legacy app, there is still coding adjustments required (layout is not the same, scaling is off, header is gone). We uninstalled and re-installed the app thinking it was an import snafu, but we are still having this issue. We are eager to make this transition but need to import our template exactly as it appears on the legacy app. Please assist, we have not gotten a response from Shopify support. JUNE 6 - As a long-time user of the legacy app, we were initially optimistic about transitioning to the newer version, however our experience has left us disappointed. The primary issue stems from the incompatibility between our custom template, which was meticulously crafted to suit our specific needs, and the new app. Despite reaching out to Shopify's support team, who were indeed helpful in their assistance, the ultimate verdict was disheartening: our template is simply "not compatible" with the new app. The lack of compatibility and the requirement for coding knowledge makes it inaccessible and impractical for users like us. I sincerely hope that future updates will address these issues and make the transition smoother.
Hey, there! Thank you for taking the time to review the new Shopify Order Printer. I definitely hear you, and I appreciate you expressing the need to use your existing custom template in the new app. I'll make sure to pass this along to our development team so they can consider your comments when planning future updates. -Summer, Shopify Support

I am not sure why Shopify does not improve the ‘Shopify Order Printer’ to make it easier to use and send invoices after orders are shipped automatically. Instead, Shopify suggests spending more money on third-party apps that are not located in the UK or EU. Concerns about GDPR compliance and data retention for our customers’ data remain unclear with those firms that sells apps from https://apps.shopify.com/
Hi, there! Thanks for your review! We understand the importance of having efficient and compliant tools to manage your business operations, especially when it comes to handling customer data under GDPR. It's important to note that Shopify does not have control over the data handling practices of third-party app developers. To ensure that any third-party app you consider is compliant with GDPR and meets your standards for data privacy and security, we strongly recommend reviewing the Privacy Policy of each app before installation. You can find these policies on the app’s listing page in the Shopify App Store. -Maz, Shopify Support

Ever heard the saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"? This applies perfectly to what Shopify did with the order printer app. We finally had it all customized exactly how we liked it, and then they are now forcing us to "upgrade" to a literally inferior product. My main gripe is that the new order printer STILL doesn't import variant selections from orders that are imported in from outside of Shopify (I.E. Etsy Orders, Ebay Orders, Etc). PLEASE just let us keep using Legacy Order Printer until you get your poop together with the new app.
Hey, there! We appreciate your feedback. We'll pass this on to our development team so they can consider it for future updates. -Summer, Shopify Support

The font is too small on the Order form. There doesn't appear to be any way to permanently tick to remove the default to print Packing Form. It wastes so much paper to print the orders & throw away the packing sheet. I loved the original Legacy Order Printer. It was easily customised, larger font, so less room for error when packing orders. This seems like a dumbed down version that has replaced a perfectly functional order printer. Why??

The update is not friendly at all. We've not been able to transfer templates suitably, and the consistent issues between the legacy printer, and the updated version is horrendous.

Thanks for your review of the Shopify Order Printer App. If you're experiencing issues with transferring your template to the new Order Printer App, please refer to our Help Doc for assistance: https://shopify.link/ABVA.

Absolutely awful app. No preparation made for customers for the switch. No easy transfer across. Seems to be an intentional need to use a 3rd party app or developer to make things work. Worst yet is they've started messing with the legacy app which is forcing people to jump to the new app before they've made the relevant preparations. My whole operation came to a grinding halt this morning because of their changes. 15 staff being paid to do nothing while we await a developer to get to the office and make amendments so that we can print our specialised packing slips...

I just installed the new App, and I have to say everything about it is extremely craptacular. Halfbaked isn't even a remarkedly close comparison. Raw and still mostly frozen is a better description. I can't believe anyone would consider this App ready for deployment. The type is microscopic. I can code but finding where to try and make changes is anything but obvious. Changes like this make me wish we hadn't gone with Shopify.

Does not work properly. The templates from the legacy were perfect, and I've used them or years. I migrated the templates per instructions, but the order number is missing, as well as the date and email fields. Not great. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. And if you're going to fix it, make sure you have a solution that works. This is not it guys. Horrible, huge misstep.
Hi, there! Thank you for your feedback and review. The new app architecture is designed to allow for more functionality and updates in the near future. I recommend contacting our live support team through the Help Center (https://shopify.link/vRnL) so we can take a closer look at any issues you're having. Thanks again! - Greta, Shopify Support
