Hi,

1. For your VAT number, you can add it in your "shop address" option of the configuration.
For your customers', you first need to publish it in the menu Display-&gt;custom fields and then modify the "address_template" view file via the menu Display-&gt;Views to add it.

2. See point 1.

3. HikaShop doesn't know how many pages will be printed by your browser. I don't see how you would do that in HikaShop. You can however do that on some browsers like Firefox: [ www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-or-...inting-defaults.html](http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-or-customize-firefox-printing-defaults.html)

4. Product images are not displayed on invoices. Are you talking about something else ?

Hi Nicolas.

I've added a custom field for my VAT customers, published it and modify the address template view. I've modifed two views (front and back end), and front end works fine, but back end view is not working. With the same template modification, VAT numbers shows in fron end but if I go to Orders in back end the invoice don't show VAT custom field.

Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks.

(Both views are of the same template)

The view file of the back end should be edited for the template of your back end and not for the template of your front end.

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm trying to do the exact same thing (display customer's VAT number on invoice). I've edited the address_template as described above, but it's not showing up yet on the invoice.

Lanzanet, can you tell me which view exactly I have to change to get this to work?

Thank you.

EDIT: D'oh! I made the same mistake as Lanzanet did... Got it working now, thanks!
