Hi,

There is no need to modification any code in HikaShop in order to have the order number in the order notification emails.
For the order administrator notification email, you need to edit it and empty the "subject" field of the email so that it uses the translation NEW_ORDER_SUBJECT instead of the default translation ORDER_ADMIN_NOTIFICATION_SUBJECT.
The NEW_ORDER_SUBJECT translation already has both the order number and the website URL in it and you can further customize the subject with a translation override.
