## Description
Harvify PDF Invoices attaches a PDF invoice to the order emails WooCommerce already
sends, and issues a credit note whenever you refund.
The part that matters is not the PDF. It is the **numbering**.
#### Getting started
1. Go to **Harvify PDF Invoices**. The **Settings** screen opens.
2. Under **Invoice numbering**, set the number format: a prefix such as `INV-{year}-`
and how many digits the number has.
3. Under **Attach to emails**, tick the WooCommerce emails that should carry the
invoice. Most shops choose the completed-order email.
4. Fill in **Your tax details** so they print on every invoice, then click
**Save
settings**.
5. Open **Diagnostics** to confirm nothing on your server needs attention.
6. Complete an order: the invoice is attached to the email you chose, and the order
screen’s **Harvify documents** section opens it. Refund the order and a credit
note is issued.
If you are moving from another invoicing plugin, open **Import** first. It continues
your existing numbers instead of starting again at 1.
#### Every number is accounted for
* Numbers are allocated so that **two orders placed at the same moment can never
receive the same one
. The database itself enforces this, not a lucky read.
* A number is **never reused**.
* A number **never silently disappears**. If a document fails after its number
was
allocated, that number is recorded as **void** — with the reason and the
time — and stays visible in your numbering audit.
That is a stronger promise than “gapless”, and unlike “gapless” it is one that
survives two customers checking out in the same second. The **numbering audit**
screen shows you the whole sequence, per period, with every void explained, and
exports it as CSV. It is the screen you show your accountant.
#### Switching from another invoicing plugin
Most people never move invoicing plugins, because restarting numbering at #1
breaks
the sequence their accountant and tax authority expect.
So this one **continues your existing numbers**. The importer reads your current
plugin, shows you a dry run first — _“after import your next invoice will be INV-
2026-0004, the same number you would get today” — and only then writes anything.
Your historical numbers are preserved exactly as they were, your number format is
adopted, and the old plugin is never modified, so you can compare the two side by
side or back out entirely.
Imports from **WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips**, from **WebToffee
(beta)
,
or from a CSV file of `order_id,invoice_number,invoice_date` — so you
can move
from a plugin nobody has mapped, from a spreadsheet, or from a paper book. If any
line of the file cannot be read, nothing at all is imported and every problem is
listed: a half-imported invoice history is worse than none.
The WebToffee route is marked **beta** because it is newly verified: we checked
it
against **WebToffee 5.0.1** by having that plugin issue real invoice numbers
and then importing them, so we know it reads what WebToffee actually stores. Older
WebToffee versions we have not tested. The dry run protects you either way — it
shows the numbers you will end up with **before** anything is written, and the import
can be rolled back afterwards.
#### Dual run — try it without your customers seeing anything
Importing your history is one thing; trusting the next real order is another. Turn
on **dual run** and this plugin produces and numbers every document exactly as it
will in production — and attaches none of them to your customers’ emails. Your old
plugin carries on sending its own, so customers see no change at all, while you
get a side-by-side table of its invoice number and ours for every order placed since
you started.
It never ends on a timer. When the period you chose is up you are simply told;
nothing reaches a customer until you press the button yourself.
#### What you get
* **PDF invoices**, attached to the WooCommerce emails you choose
* **Credit notes on refund** — one per refund, on their own separate sequence
* Prefix, suffix and zero-padding, with {year} and {month} tokens
* **Yearly or monthly restart** — and earlier periods are never renumbered
* **Numbering audit** — with CSV export
* **Numbers are immutable once issued** — an order edit, a status change or a
refund never renumbers a document that has already been issued.
* **VOID tracking** — a number is never reused and never silently disappears; a
failure records a VOID with its reason and timestamp.
* **Import your existing numbers** — from WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing
Slips,
WebToffee (beta) or a CSV file — with a dry run, a rollback and a dual-run mode
* Multiple tax rates per document, VAT number, reverse-charge note
* **Diagnostics screen** — a live test render, memory headroom, storage,
numbering
health, the language a given order’s document will be produced in, and font coverage
checked against _your own recent orders_, each with the fix stated
* **Fonts for non-Latin invoices** — one-click download of the matching Noto
font,
or upload your own
* **Bulk generate and bulk ZIP download** — straight from the Orders list
* **Customer self-service** — your buyers download their own invoice from My
Account
* **WP-CLI** — regenerate a document, export the numbering audit, check sequence
status
#### Pro — the Harvify Pro Bundle
* **Visual template designer** — logo, colours, type sizes, page margins, the
order of the blocks on the page, and your own CSS, with a **live preview that
is real PDF output rather than an HTML approximation of one. A save is only accepted
if it renders: if the candidate template throws, the save is refused and the
documents your customers receive are left exactly as they were.
* **More document types** — **proforma invoices**, **delivery notes** and
**dunning(
payment reminder) letters**, plus **packing-slip customisation**: retitle it,
drop the SKU column, hide the customer note or the shipping method, add a footer
line of your own. The basic packing slip stays free. The three new documents
are deliberately **unnumbered** — a quotation that never becomes a sale must
not consume an invoice number, because a number is never reused and a gap is
permanent.
* **Bulk generation at scale, and automation** — Pro does not raise the free
bulk
limit, it **queues the work on Action Scheduler**, one order per job, so nothing
renders inside the request and a run across thousands of orders cannot time out.
Plus **per-status auto-attach rules** — choose which of WooCommerce’s own emails
carry a document for orders in a given status. Rules are evaluated at send time,
so switching one off takes effect on the very next email rather than after a
queue drains.
* **Scheduled accountant export** — a weekly, monthly or quarterly package of
the numbering audit CSV and that period’s documents, delivered to an **email
address or an FTP server. Consecutive delivery failures pause the schedule and
say why, on the screen and in Diagnostics — because a monthly export bouncing
off a dead mailbox for a year is exactly the sort of thing nobody notices.
* **Multi-language documents — the language follows the customer, not the
admin.
—
German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese and Polish ship
with the
plugin, so documents translate on a shop with nothing else installed; WPML and
Polylang are honoured when present and never required. A language is used only
if it can translate every string on the document: a page reading “Rechnung” above“
Subtotal” is worse than English throughout, so the fallback is the whole document
rather than the missing phrase. The same order produces the same language from
the order screen, from WP-CLI and from the customer’s own My Account download.
* **Per-document-type sequences and per-country legal blocks** — where your
jurisdiction
requires sequentially numbered delivery notes, give that type **its own series**:
it starts at 1 and never draws a number from the invoice sequence. And attach
the legal wording a given billing country requires, printed in the document’s
notice box rather than buried in footer grey.
#### Harvify Pro Bundle
One subscription unlocks the Pro features of every Harvify plugin. Install only
the tools your store needs.
#### What we translate, and what we do not
The seven bundled languages cover **the wording of the document itself** — its
headings, its column titles, its totals and its notices. The country name in the
customer’s address and WooCommerce’s own tax labels come from the WordPress and
WooCommerce language packs, so on a shop that has never installed the German pack
they stay in English however complete our translation is. The Languages screen tells
you which packs this site has. The date is the one thing we handle ourselves: when
a pack is missing it is printed numerically, so it never appears in the wrong language.
#### Non-Latin invoices are refused, not mangled
The bundled font covers Latin, Greek and Cyrillic. If an order contains Japanese,
Arabic, Hebrew, Thai or Devanagari characters, most plugins render a document full
of empty boxes and nobody notices until a customer complains.
This one **refuses to produce that document**, names the script, and offers you
the
font — one click to download it to your own server, or upload your own `.ttf`.
#### We never email your customers
Invoices reach buyers by being attached to WooCommerce’s own order emails. This
plugin has no path of its own for sending anything to a customer, so your existing
mail setup keeps working exactly as it does, and a delivery problem stays a mail-
configuration question rather than becoming ours.
There is exactly one thing this plugin sends, and it is not to a customer: the
Pro **accountant export**, which mails your own records to the address you type
in yourself. Nothing about what your customers receive changes.
#### What this does not claim
We generate invoices containing the fields **commonly required** for VAT and GST.
We do **not** claim to make you tax compliant, and you should confirm with your
accountant that the documents meet the requirements in your jurisdiction.
### External services
This plugin connects to Freemius, the licensing and update service Harvify uses
to
sell and deliver the Pro tier of its plugins.
Nothing is sent to Freemius unless you choose to send it. On activation you are
shown
Freemius’s standard opt-in screen. Until you answer it a fresh install makes
no outbound request at all, and if you choose Skip the free tier stays fully usable
and still sends nothing. Data is transmitted only when you take one of these actions:
* **You click “Allow & Continue” on the Freemius opt-in screen.** This sends your
site address, your administrator email address, and your WordPress, PHP and active
plugin/theme details, so Harvify can provide support and know which environments
to test against. Skipping that screen sends nothing and leaves the plugin working
normally.
* **You enter a Pro Bundle licence key.** This sends the key together with your
site
address so the licence can be activated for that site. While a licence
is active the site also re-checks periodically that it is still valid and whether
a Pro update is available.
Service provided by Freemius, Inc. – https://freemius.com/

freemius.com/terms/ Privacy policy: https://freemius.com/privacy/
#### Font downloads (optional, one click per script)
Invoices render in Latin scripts using fonts bundled with the plugin. If you need
Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai or Devanagari, the Fonts screen offers to download
the matching Noto font, and that download runs only when you click install for that
specific script.
Sent: a request to raw.githubusercontent.com for the font file itself. Like every
request WordPress makes, it carries WordPress’s standard User-Agent header, which
names your WordPress version and your site address, and GitHub sees your server’s
IP address. Nothing about your orders or your customers is included.
Fonts are the Noto family, hosted on GitHub – https://github.com/notofonts
Terms:

#### Accountant export
The Pro accountant export can upload documents to an FTP server that you configure.
It is part of the Pro tier and is not included in this free download.

## Installation
1. Install and activate. WooCommerce must be active.
2. Go to **Harvify PDF Invoices Settings** and choose your number format and which
emails should carry the invoice.
3. Check **Diagnostics** — it will tell you if anything on your server needs attention
before the first document is issued.
## FAQ
### Will it change my existing invoice numbers?
No. The importer preserves every historical number exactly, and continues the
sequence
from where your current plugin left off. The dry run shows you the next number before
anything is written, and you can roll the import back.
### What happens if two orders are placed at exactly the same moment?
They receive different numbers. Allocation is enforced by a uniqueness constraint
in the database, so a collision is impossible rather than unlikely.
### Why was my invoice not created?
Check the Diagnostics screen — it reports the actual cause with the fix. The most
common one is an order containing characters the installed fonts cannot draw, which
is refused deliberately rather than rendered as empty boxes.
### Does it work with HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)?
Yes. All order data is read through the WooCommerce CRUD API rather than post meta.

## Changelog
#### 0.14.11
* **Admin messages no longer travel in the address bar.** The bulk-action, Fonts
and
Settings screens used to print their message from the URL, so a crafted
link could show any sentence on those screens. Messages are now kept for the
user whose action caused them, and shown once.
* **The Diagnostics order lookup now needs a security token and the WooCommerce
manager capability.
Without both, the lookup is ignored.
* **`wp harvify-pdf export-audit --file` only writes to the plugin’s protected
folder**
in your uploads directory. Only the file name you give is used.
* The document translations used by Pro are no longer included in the free plugin.
* Readme: a formatting error in the feature list is fixed, and a Getting started
section is added.
#### 0.14.10
* **Fixed: the PDF Invoices settings screen could not be opened on a site with
no
other Harvify plugin.
The menu was registered too late to be built, so
WooCommerce stores that installed only this plugin saw “Sorry, you are not allowed
to access this page” instead of the settings.
#### 0.14.9
* **Fixed: deleting the plugin with “delete data on uninstall” switched on now
removes all of its settings.
Twelve options survived an opted-in delete, among
them the main settings, the importer’s saved state and, on Pro, the accountant
export’s stored secret. Generated PDF files and the invoice numbers recorded
on your orders are still always kept, as the setting says. With the setting off(
the default) nothing is removed, as before.
* Fixed: the External services section and the Fonts screen now say exactly what
a font download sends. The request goes to raw.githubusercontent.com and carries
WordPress’s standard User-Agent, which names your WordPress version and site
address. It was previously described as sending nothing about your site.
* Changed: the External services section now describes the Freemius opt-in screen
shown on activation. Until you answer it a fresh install makes no outbound request,
and choosing Skip keeps the free tier fully usable and sends nothing.
* Fixed: two lines on the Pro panels promised more than Pro does. Pro numbering
gives each document type its own prefix (padding and the reset period follow
your invoice settings), and the Automation screen lists recent background failures
rather than showing progress.
#### 0.14.8
* Added: a single **Support** entry in the Harvify menu, so you can reach us from
inside WordPress. Until now no plugin offered a contact route at all. One entry
for the whole suite rather than one per plugin.
* No behaviour changes.
#### 0.14.7
* Added: an **External services** section to this readme, naming every third-party
service the plugin can contact, exactly what is sent, when, and each provider’s
terms and privacy policy. Required for WordPress.org submission.
* Changed: the `Contributors` field now names the correct WordPress.org account.
* No behaviour changes.
#### 0.14.6
* Fixed: deactivating or deleting the plugin now cancels queued document
generation
and the scheduled accountant export. A bulk run could leave one queued job per
order behind, each firing against a plugin that was no longer active.
#### 0.14.5
* Fixed: a delivery note, proforma invoice or payment reminder printed itself as
a
“Packing slip” when that document type had been switched off in the settings.
The heading was looked up in the list of ENABLED documents, so turning one off
left the document with no name of its own. On a German shop the note went out
headed “Packzettel”. What a document is CALLED no longer depends on whether it
is currently OFFERED.
#### 0.14.4
* Added: a single **Manage licence** link on the Plan screen, so an active customer
can
deactivate this site, change their licence key or re-check their licence
without needing a URL from support. No per-plugin Account tab is added.
#### 0.14.3
* **Fixed: updating the plugin did not update its database.** WordPress only runs
a plugin’s
setup routine when you _activate_ it, never when it updates — so
a change to the plugin’s own tables never reached sites that had simply updated.
On those sites some features failed with a database error. The update now applies
itself on the next page load.
* **One upgrade link instead of one per plugin.** With several Harvify plugins
active the
menu showed a row called “Upgrade” for each of them, all identically
labelled, and it kept saying Upgrade to people who had already bought. They are
replaced by a single **Plan** screen that says what the bundle costs, what it
covers, and whether your licence is active.
* **The dashboard is quiet again.** Each plugin used to add its own “opt in to
make this
better” notice to the main WordPress dashboard, so five plugins meant
five notices. Harvify plugins now share one queue: promotional notices appear
only on Harvify’s own screens, and only one at a time. Licence and account messages
are never held back.
* **Fixed: the “Data & uninstall” box covered the page.** It was being drawn into
the admin
footer, which WordPress pins to the bottom of the screen, so it floated
on top of whatever was underneath it. It now sits in the page like any other
card. Saving it also tells you what it saved, instead of just reloading.
* **Fixed: the upgrade screen advertised the wrong number of sites.** Several plugins
listed
the Freelancer and Agency plans as covering 5 and 25 sites. They cover
3 and 10.
#### 0.14.2
* **Deleting the plugin can now clean up after itself.** It previously had no uninstall
routine
at all, so its options stayed in your database forever with no way to
remove them. A new **Data & uninstall** control on the plugin’s own screen lets
you opt in to a full cleanup; the default is to keep everything, so nothing changes
unless you ask for it.
#### 0.14.1
* **The plugin now looks like the rest of the Harvify suite.** Its screens were
plain
WordPress settings markup dropped onto the grey admin background — no
card, labels stranded in a narrow column — under a Harvify header, so it read
as a different product bolted on. Every section is now inside the same card the
other twelve plugins use, with grouped headings, matching inputs and readable
help text.
* **Fixed: PRO badges were shown on the tabs even when your licence was active.**
On a paid
site those screens are simply yours; labelling them PRO read like
being sold something you had already bought. The badges now appear only while
a feature is locked.
* Wide tables (numbering audit, diagnostics) scroll inside their card instead of
pushing the
page sideways.
#### 0.14.0
* **You can now see that a Pro tier exists.** This plugin had no Pro visibility
at all: the
paid screens are registered by the Pro code, so on the free build
they simply were not there. A free user saw five tabs, nothing labelled Pro,
and no way to find out what the paid tier does or what it costs — from inside
the plugin, the paid tier did not exist.
* Every Pro feature now has a tab in the free build, marked **PRO**: Template,
Documents,
Numbering & legal, Automation, Languages and Accountant export. Opening
one explains what the feature does, what you get, and the price — rather than
a blank screen. It never shows the working feature.
* New **Upgrade** tab (it becomes **Plan** once licensed, showing that Pro is unlocked
as
part of your Harvify Pro Bundle, with a link to manage the licence).
* A dismissible upgrade card on the free working screens. Dismiss it and it stays
dismissed.
* The plugin now uses the shared Harvify admin design the other twelve plugins
use: branded
header, Free/Pro plan pill, and the section nav. The shared packages
it already expected were never actually bundled with it, so none of that had
been loading.
* Fixed: with all twelve tabs present the section nav ran off the right-hand edge
of the
window and the last tab could not be reached without scrolling the whole
page sideways. It now wraps onto a second row.
* Fixed: WordPress admin notices were being drawn inside the plugin’s header panel.
#### 0.13.3
* **Fixed: the WebToffee importer read the wrong fields and would have found nothing.**
It looked
for meta keys that no version of WebToffee writes, so on a real WebToffee
shop it would have reported an empty history — and that shop would have restarted
its invoice numbering at 1, which is the exact thing this importer exists to
prevent. Checked against WebToffee 5.0.1 by having that plugin issue real invoice
numbers and reading back what it stored, the importer now reads the right fields,
understands that WebToffee keeps only a finished (prefixed and padded) number,
and reads its invoice date correctly.
* The **WebToffee** source is now offered on the Import screen, marked **beta**
while it is newly
verified: 5.0.1 is checked, older versions are not. The dry
run shows you the numbers you will end up with before anything is written, and
the import can be rolled back.
#### 0.13.2
* Documentation: the Pro features are now described in the plugin description.
The template
designer, the extra document types, queued bulk generation, the
scheduled accountant export, multi-language documents and per-country legal blocks
were all built, drilled and shipped — but they appeared only in this changelog,
so nobody reading the description ever learnt the plugin does them. No code changed.
#### 0.13.1
* Fixed: the Pro accountant-export download now reads its package through WordPress’s
own
filesystem layer, like every other download in the plugin. It was the one
route still using a direct PHP call, under a suppression comment that named a
rule which does not exist — so the suppression did nothing and the call was flagged.
* Housekeeping: “Tested up to” moved to WordPress 7.1.
#### 0.13.0
* **Pro: a visual template designer.** Colours, logo, type sizes, page margin,
the order your document’s blocks appear in, and your own CSS — with a **live
preview that is the real PDF**, produced by the same engine that makes your invoices,
drawn from one of your own real orders.
* **Pro: a template that does not render is not saved.** Every save is checked
by producing a real document with it first. If that fails, the save is refused
and the template you are using stays in use — you cannot break your invoices
by pressing Save.
* **Pro: blocks can be reordered but never removed.** Each one carries something
an invoice needs, and a stored layout that is damaged or out of date is repaired
on the way to the document rather than producing an invoice with no totals.
* **Pro: a large logo cannot break your invoices.** Images are re-encoded and scaled
down before they are stored.
* **Pro: low contrast is pointed out, not blocked.** If your text colour is hard
to read the screen says which pair and what the ratio is, and leaves the decision
to you — quiet text is sometimes exactly what you want.
* **Pro: restore the default template at any time.** The shipped template is part
of the plugin rather than a saved copy of one, so restoring always works.
#### 0.12.0
* **Pro: scheduled accountant export.** Sends your invoice records to your accountant
on a schedule — the numbering audit for the period plus the documents issued
in it, in one ZIP, by email or FTP. Each package covers the period that has just
ENDED, because half a month is not something an accountant can file.
* **Pro: the audit and the documents reconcile.** Every issued number in the CSV
says whether its PDF is in the package, so a number without an enclosed document
arrives explained instead of queried.
* **Pro: a forgotten schedule stops itself.** Three consecutive delivery failures
pause it, the reason is recorded, and Diagnostics says plainly that nothing is
being sent. Switching the export off stops it immediately rather than after whatever
was already queued.
* **Pro: your FTP password is never shown back to you.** The field is always blank
and blank means “keep it”; the password is stored outside the settings, is never
written to the run log or any error message, and appears in nothing this plugin
can hand to a support request.
* Google Drive and Dropbox are deliberately not offered — they would mean us running
an OAuth application over your customers’ invoices.
#### 0.11.0
* **Pro: documents in your customer’s language.** Seven languages ship with the
plugin — German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese and Polish — and
the language follows the CUSTOMER, not whoever is looking at the screen. The
same order comes out in the same language from the order screen, from WP-CLI,
and from the customer’s own download in My Account.
* **Pro: a language is used only if the whole document can be translated.** If
a single phrase is missing, the entire document is produced in English instead.
Half-German-half-English is worse than English, so we never produce one. The
Languages screen shows the coverage for each language and names any phrase that
is holding one back.
* **Pro: no translation plugin required.** The translations are ours and work on
a shop with nothing else installed. WPML and Polylang are used WHEN PRESENT —
for the order’s language and for translated product titles — and are never needed.
* **Pro: the billing country can supply the language** when nothing else knows
it. Only for countries with one obvious language: Belgium, Switzerland, Canada
and Luxembourg are deliberately left alone, because guessing there gets it wrong
for real customers.
* **Diagnostics now reports which language a given order’s document will use**,
and where that language came from — so you see it before your customer does.
There is a box on the screen to ask about any order.
* Dates on a translated document are shown numerically when your site does not
have that language’s WordPress pack installed, so an English month name never
appears on a German invoice.
#### 0.10.0
* Pro: bulk generation at scale. With the background queue on, a bulk run is no
longer capped at 100 orders — each order becomes its own background job, so the
run finishes whatever its size and nothing happens in your browser request. The
free limit is unchanged.
* Pro: attach by order status. Choose which of WooCommerce’s own emails carry the
invoice, per order status. Nothing is attached until you tick something, and
unticking takes effect on the very next email.
* Fixed: one invoice number per order is now enforced by the database, not by a
check in code. Two workers generating for the same order at the same instant
could each allocate a number — no duplicate number was ever issued, but the order
could end up with a second number recorded against it in the numbering audit.
Found by a test that injects a genuine race.
* If your site already carries that footprint, nothing is changed behind your back:
Diagnostics and the numbering audit both name the affected orders, and `wp harvify-
pdf reconcile-numbers --dry-run` shows what reconciling would do. Reconciling
keeps the number your customer’s invoice actually shows and marks the other VOID
with a reason — nothing is deleted.
#### 0.9.0
* **Pro: give a document its own numbers.** Some countries require delivery notes
to carry
their own sequential number. Switch it on and that document gets a
sequence of its OWN, starting at 1, with its own prefix — it never takes numbers
from your invoice series, and your next invoice number does not move.
* Switching it back off stops new documents being numbered. Numbers already issued
stay
exactly as they are: a number that has been given out is never reused and
never quietly disappears.
* **Pro: country legal text.** Wording printed on documents for customers billed
in a
particular country — a reverse-charge note, a local tax statement. Chosen
by the billing country, printed in a boxed panel at readable size rather than
buried in the small print, and shown alongside (not instead of) a proforma’s
own statement.
* Fixed: if a document’s numbering was switched on but its sequence table was missing—
after
a restored backup or a site clone, for example — the screen could show
a raw database error. It now repairs the table when you open the screen.
#### 0.8.0
* **Pro: more documents.** A **proforma invoice**, a **delivery note** and a **
payment
reminder
, alongside the invoice and packing slip. Each can be switched
on or off.
* None of them takes an invoice number. A proforma is a quotation, not a sale —
numbering one
would use up a real invoice number for an order that may never
happen, and numbers are never reused. The proforma says plainly that it is not
a VAT invoice and that no payment is due against it.
* **Pro: packing-slip appearance.** Retitle it, hide the SKU column, hide the customer
note or
the shipping method, and add your own footer line. The packing slip
itself stays part of the free plugin — only these options are Pro.
#### 0.7.0
* **WP-CLI commands.** `wp harvify-pdf regenerate ...` re-renders a document
under
the number it already has — useful after a restore, a tidied uploads folder
or a template fix. It never issues a new number for an order that already has
one.
* `wp harvify-pdf export-audit` writes the numbering audit as CSV to standard output,
or with
–file= to the plugin’s protected folder in your uploads directory, for
invoices or credit notes. It is the same export the Numbering audit screen produces,
built by the same code.
* `wp harvify-pdf status` shows where each sequence stands, with issued and void
counts.
#### 0.6.0
* **Customers can download their own invoice** from My Account — an Invoice button
on their
order list and a download on the order page. A customer only ever sees
their own orders, and the button appears only once the invoice exists.
* Opening an invoice never creates one, so a customer visiting the page cannot
cause a
document number to be issued for an unfinished order.
* Can be switched off entirely on the Settings screen.
* Fixed: an error message on the Fonts screen was displayed with all of its spaces
removed,
making it very hard to read. (Same cause as the Settings-screen fix
in 0.5.0; the whole plugin was checked for other instances.)
#### 0.5.0
* **Bulk actions on the Orders list.** Select orders and choose _Generate invoices_,
or
_Download invoices (ZIP)_ to get them all in one archive. Files inside the
archive are named after the invoice number, so they are easy to find.
* Orders that already have an invoice **keep the number they were given** — a bulk
run never
re-issues a number, and the result tells you how many kept theirs.
* Works on both WooCommerce order storage modes, and on servers without PHP’s ZIP
extension.
* Fixed: a warning message on the Settings screen was displayed with all of its
spaces
removed, making it very hard to read.
#### 0.4.0
* **Dual run** — try this plugin without your customers seeing anything. Every
document is
produced and numbered exactly as it will be in production, and none
of them are attached to your customers’ emails; your old plugin carries on sending
its own. You get a side-by-side table of its invoice number and ours for every
order placed since you started, so you can check the numbering before you commit
to it.
* Dual run **never ends on a timer.** When the period you chose is up you are told,
and
nothing changes until you press the button yourself — because that button
is the moment customers start receiving documents from this plugin.
* Your old plugin is never modified, switched off, or stripped from an email. Dual
run only
decides what _this_ plugin attaches.
* While dual run is on, a banner on every screen of the plugin says so, so it cannot
be
forgotten.
#### 0.3.0
* **The importer now has a screen.** It could be reached from nowhere in the admin
before this release, so nobody could actually use it. It lives under PDF Invoices
Import: it tells you which of your plugins it found invoice history in, shows
the dry run, and only writes when you press Import. Undo is there too.
* **Import from a CSV file** — three columns, `order_id,invoice_number,invoice_date`,
with an optional heading row. Semicolon-separated files (the ones Excel writes
in much of Europe) are read correctly. If any line cannot be read, nothing at
all is imported and every problem is listed with its line number.
* An optional **“next number”** you can set alongside a CSV, for when your sequence
has moved on since the file was made. It can only move numbering forward.
* Fixed: two different files with the same number of rows and the same highest
invoice number could be mistaken for one already imported, so the second import
did nothing while reporting success.
#### 0.2.0
* Your licence is now manageable from the plugin itself. The Account screen was
previously
hidden, which also hid **Deactivate License** — so a licence could
not be released from one site to move it to another without contacting support.
It is visible again, along with the licence key, plan, Sync and Change License.
* The repeated _“Opt in to make … better!”_ admin notice no longer appears. Licence,
plan and
update notices are unaffected — only the opt-in prompt is suppressed.
* Packing slips (free). A packing slip for every order, from the Documents column
on
the Orders list and from the order screen: delivery address, items, SKU and
quantity, the customer’s note — and deliberately no prices, no tax and no totals,
so it is safe to put in a gift or drop-shipped order. Packing slips carry no
document number and never consume one; they are rebuilt each time you open one,
so they always match the order as it stands. Optionally attachable to a WooCommerce
email (off by default).
* Fixed: regenerating an invoice could issue it a SECOND number and overwrite the
first. It now always reuses the number already issued, including when the PDF
file itself has gone missing from uploads.
* WooCommerce HPOS (custom order tables) compatibility is now declared.
#### 0.1.0
* Initial development release: PDF invoices attached to WooCommerce emails; credit
notes on refund with an independent sequence; concurrency-safe numbering with
void tracking and a numbering audit with CSV export; yearly/monthly restart with{
year}/`{month}` tokens; import from WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips
with dry-run preview, format adoption and rollback; font coverage detection with
one-click Noto download and manual upload; diagnostics self-check.
