No change after editing template file

  • Hello, I’ve created and selected my template but no changes happens when I edit invoice.php file. I mean: neither a simple text line will be displayed.
    If I rename the file, the receipt is generated as well.
    Only if I try to save from backend when the file has a different name I get a 500 error (of Course, I guess).
    Heading Fields if edited in backend work correctly instead.

    I guess the issue is due to another plugin installed “WooCommerce PDF Invoices Italian Add-on” which seems to mess up things. The readed template is the one that it install (in /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-pdf-invoices-italian-add-on/templates/pdf/Simple/receipt.php). If I try to disable this plugin, I cannot generate any invoice since your plugin search for “receipt.php” but in /httpdocs/wp-content/themes/MyTheme/woocommerce/pdf/MyInvoice/). I’ve also tried to copy this file in the requested path but it didn’t work at all.

    I need to add custom fields in my template but if I try to add a line like <?php $this->custom_field(‘custom_fieldname’); ?> in receipt.php it cant’ find the right function. So I’m stuck in this situation.

    Hi! The Italian Add-on is not developed by us, so if the error appears to be caused by that plugin, please contact them directly here:

    For more information about adding custom fields, check the documentation here: Displaying a custom field.
    And to find the meta key for the field name (where you have ‘custom_fieldname’ in your example), read this: Finding WooCommerce Custom Fields
