    Hi,
    Thanks to the explanation on your website how to add a custom field I got a VAT number (the custom field) to show on the invoice. (used the template action hook for a delivery date near the bottom – second to last ). Thank you for that.

    How would I change this that so that the custom field only is shown when a value is entered in the check-out proces.
    So if a company is ordering and adds a VAT number only in that case the custom fields and the preceding text is shown.

    You could use an if statement to show the field if it is not empty

    Thank you for your reply.

    Yeas an If statement is possible. Just don’t know how to get that right.
    The custom field is _billing_vat_number and generated by the plugin Woo EU VAT Number.
    I have :

    function cust_vat_number ($template_type, $order) {
    if ($template_type == ‘invoice’) {
    $document = wcpdf_get_document( $template_type, $order );
    ?>
    Uw BTW nummer custom_field(‘_billing_vat_number’); ?>
    <?php
    }
    }

    $vat = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘_billing_vat_number’, true );
    if( isset( $vat ) ){
    add_action( ‘wpo_wcpdf_after_order_data’, ‘cust_vat_number’, 10, 2 );
    }

    But this shows the preceding text in all cases. So also when an VAT number is not entered.

    Give this snippet a try

    add_action( 'wpo_wcpdf_after_order_data', 'cust_vat_number', 10, 2 );
    function cust_vat_number( $template_type, $order ) {
    	if ( $template_type == 'invoice' ) {
    		$custom_field = $order->get_meta( '_billing_vat_number' );
    		if ( ! empty( $custom_field ) ) {
    			?>
    				Uw BTW nummer <?php echo $custom_field; ?>
    			<?php
    		}
    	}
    }

    Hi dwpriv

    With a slight adjustment it works.
    I had to replace

    Uw BTW nummer <?php echo $custom_field; ?>

    With

    <tr class="vat-nummer">
         <th>Uw BTW nummer</th>
         <td><?php echo $custom_field; ?> </td>
     </tr>

    That did the trick.
    Thank you for your help.
