Hi.

I was woundering how I can add a custom field that i’v created for the checkout page on the invoice and maybe on the packing slip

the custom field meta is: _billing_cnp
That custom field is just plain text.

My custom field is added on the checkout page exactly after the company field.
So… would be nice If I can get something like.
________
Name
Company
My Custom Field
Billing Address
________
I’v tried this, but doesn’t work:
```
add_action( 'wpo_wcpdf_before_billing_address', 'wpo_wcpdf_billing_cnp', 10, 2 );
function wpo_wcpdf_billing_cnp ($document_type, $order) {
    if ($document_type == 'invoice') {
        // get the delivery date from the order
        $billing_cnp = $order->get_meta('billing_cnp');
        ?>
        <tr class="billing-cnp">
            <th>CNP:</th>
            <td><?php echo $billing_cnp; ?></td>
        </tr>
        <?php
    }
}
```
I’v read from the documentation, but I can’t find something to help me achive what I want.

Thank you!

I’v added it after the order data

I tried adding it after billing address, but for some reason it doesn’t work.
If you guys have a solution for that would be awesome… If not, I’m ok with it after the order date too.

Code used:
```
add_action( 'wpo_wcpdf_after_order_data', 'wpo_wcpdf_billing_cnp', 10, 2 );
function wpo_wcpdf_billing_cnp( $template_type, $order ) {
	// if order is empty, bail
	if ( empty($order) ) { return; }	

	?>      
	<tr class="billing-cnp">
		<th>CNP: </th>
		<td><?php echo $order->get_meta('_billing_cnp'); ?></td>
	</tr>
	<?php
}
```

Hi @teleanu,

I see two issues in your first code snippet: 1. You’re using an HTML table structure, but this is only needed in the order data section. 2. You forgot adding the underscore to your custom field meta key (_billing_cnp).

Please try using this code snippet instead:
```
/**
 * Show CNP number on the invoice
 */
add_action( 'wpo_wcpdf_after_billing_address', function($template_type, $order){
	if( $template_type == 'invoice') {
		if ( $billing_cnp  = $order->get_meta( '_billing_cnp' ) ){
			echo '<div>CNP: ' . $billing_cnp  . '</div>';
		}
	}
}, 10, 2 );
```
Let me know if worked!

Thank you… it worked.

But I change it a little bit by removing

if( $template_type == 'invoice')

Now it looks like this because I wanted it on the slip too:
```
/**
 * Show CNP number on the invoice
 */
add_action( 'wpo_wcpdf_after_billing_address', function($template_type, $order){
	{
		if ( $billing_cnp  = $order->get_meta( '_billing_cnp' ) ){
			echo '<div>CNP: ' . $billing_cnp  . '</div>';
		}
	}
}, 10, 2 );
```
I checked and haven’t saw any error after that modification. The CNP is added under the billing address as wanted, both on invoice & packing slip. Don’t know if that is the way to do it, but worked. If u have any idea of adding on both, please share. thank you for helping me with the initial code.

Oh, sorry, I limited this to invoices, but I just realized that you wanted it in packing slip too!

The way you did it is right: Well done! I’m glad to know you managed to make it work as you wanted 🙂

If you don’t mind and have the time, do you think you could leave us a review?

Thanks in advance and all the best with your store!
