What are label variables?
Labels are part of a loop, which is a programming construct. In your label files, you may see something like this:
{%tr for l in labels %}
{{l.product_name|truncate(82) }}
${{l.price}}
{%tr endfor %}
This means that for each variable, below, you will need to add a prefix based on your loop ({%tr for l in labels %}).
So rather than:
{{ product_name }}
You should use:
{{ l.product_name }}

Frequently asked questions
- How do I print barcodes on my labels?
You can add a SKU barcode to your label templates using {{ sku_barcode }}. This will render the SKU in barcode format allowing you to scan the labels. To print labels with the SKU barcode, ensure the variable is in your label template. To print, go to Products > List and select the products you wish to print. Select Special Print, select your template and ensure the checkbox Make barcode available is selected.
