Hi,
file components/com_virtuemart/controller/invoice.php line 88
like:
path .= vminvoice_'.$invoiceNumber.'.pdf';
changes as you want e.g.
$path .= 'Fattura_'.$invoiceNumber.'.pdf';

Hi,

I've encountered the same problem. My invoices are named "joomla.pdf".    I tried the following:

but it didn't work for me. I think it's because of the whitespaces in my invoice number:  e.g. "Serie DOC-2013 No. 0001"

I think in the file:  /components/com_virtuemart/controllers/invoice.php

I should alter the following line somehow to remove the whitespaces from the invoice number, before using it to name the pdf file:

$path .= preg_replace('/[^A-Za-z0-9_\-\.]/', '_', 'vminvoice_'.$invoiceNumber.'.pdf');

Can anyone help me with this one?

Thank you in advance.

PS:  I've found another post regarding this issue, but the solution there didn't work either:  http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=102979.msg386181#msg386181

Hello!

Does someone know how to change the pdf invoice filename on V2.0.24? I could not find out where the filename is set because the code has changed in the new version.

Thanks!

Can the invoice filename also be made in multi language?
