Help I have hit a wall - can admin have option for different payment

[dharrison]

Hi

I work for a shop selling office furniture online. We also have a bricks and mortar shop opening up soon and we would like to keep all our orders (including those made in the shop) on the Zencart site. By doing this enables us to get our stock at a discounted price (this is what I've been told!). As well as giving us nice neat invoices and enables us to track orders.

As a result, I was wondering if there was a payment option that doesn't show up for online users but can be used by the shop to say that payment has been made in the shop?

Please advise if this is a viable option or really any advice regarding this.

Many thanks in advance.

Have a look at this mod http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=305

Thanks picandnix

I saw that, but can you add orders form the admin side with this as well?

To allow your store staff to use a "private" payment module, this approach often works, if the IP address is "static" as in "doesn't change":

1. Add the authorized IP addresses to the list of Maintenance IP addresses in Admin->Configuration->Website Maintenance
2. Add the following code to the moneyorder.php payment module, and activate the module in your Admin payment modules screen:

      $this->enabled = ((MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);
      if (strstr(EXCLUDE_ADMIN_IP_FOR_MAINTENANCE, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])) {
        $this->enabled = TRUE;
      } else {
        $this->enabled = FALSE;
      }

goes hand in hand with this mod if the Dr 's mod doesn't fit your setup

Doctor's setup works absolutely fine. The only gripe with the first customer module, is not being able to determine a password.

Will the tweak in code still work even without the Add Customer form Admin module? Sorry to nitpick, but I just need to be clear on this.

Thanks

The code suggestion I made is independent of any plugins.

Thank you so much Doctor. Coffees on the way to Zen Cart team ;)
