Email attachement filename

    Hi,

    I have implemented the code for the ’email attachment filename’.
    Although it generates a filename for the email attachment, I’d like to add the invoice number in the filename.

    In the supplied code:

    //Generate an email attachment filename for wpo_wcpdf_invoice_number
add_filter( 'wpo_wcpdf_attachment_filename', 'my_pdf_attachment_filename', 10, 3 );
function my_pdf_attachment_filename( $filename, $display_number, $order_id ) {
    //$display_number is either the order number or invoice number, according to your settings
    $filename = 'TPSFS_factuur_' . $display_number . '.pdf';

    return $filename;
}

    [Moderator Note: Please post code & markup between backticks or use the code button. Your posted code may now have been permanently damaged by the forum’s parser.]

    you state “//$display_number is either the order number or invoice number, according to your settings”. But, if I change both ‘$display_number’ instances into ‘$invoice_number’, I do not get a filename with the invoice number in it.

    Ewout, could you help me once again?

    it works slightly different:

    function my_pdf_attachment_filename( $filename, $display_number, $order_id ) {

    this is just giving names to the three incoming variables. The second variable is the number that you have configured on the settings page (the number to display on the invoice), the name does not matter.

    If you want to get the invoice number without altering the setting, you can get it like this:

    $invoice_number = get_post_meta( $order_id, '_wcpdf_invoice_number', true );

    the complete filter then becomes:

    add_filter( 'wpo_wcpdf_attachment_filename', 'my_pdf_attachment_filename', 10, 3 );
function my_pdf_attachment_filename( $filename, $display_number, $order_id ) {
    $invoice_number = get_post_meta( $order_id, '_wcpdf_invoice_number', true );
    $filename = 'TPSFS_factuur_' . $invoice_number . '.pdf';

    return $filename;
}

    Ewout,

    Great, thanks for the input.
    I already sorted this out, which works great.

    //Generate an email attachment filename for wpo_wcpdf_invoice_number
add_filter( 'wpo_wcpdf_attachment_filename', 'my_pdf_attachment_filename', 10, 3 );
function my_pdf_attachment_filename( $filename, $display_number, $order_id ) {
    //$display_number is either the order number or invoice number, according to your settings
    global $wpo_wcpdf;
    $invoice_number = $wpo_wcpdf->get_invoice_number();
    $filename = 'Factuur_' . $invoice_number . '.pdf';

    return $filename;
}
