I would like this to say HST rather then VAT/TAX. I found a forum response that indicated this could be done by changing
[INVOICE_PAYEE_TAX_NUMBER_*]
to
[INVOICE_PAYEE_TAX_NUMBER_* prefix=”GST:”]

but when I tried that it didn’t work. any suggestions?

Hi there,

I’ve just tested this using:

[INVOICE_PAYEE_TAX_NUMBER_* prefix="HST:"]

and also:

[INVOICE_PAYEE_TAX_NUMBER_* prefix=HST:]

Just to confirm it wasn’t an issue with the double quotes, both worked fine in the Receipt and Invoice – http://take.ms/0T7Uf

If you have copied the previous example and pasted it into the message template, please make sure the double quotes have not been styles to look like ” as it will cause problems with the shortcode. You can also test by removing the double quotes from the shortcode.

Thanks, I tried it without the quotes and it worked fine.

Great, its likely the original quotes were styled and so cause problems when the shortcode parsed.

I’m glad its working for you now, please let us know if you have any further problems.
