FYI: Possible upcoming issue with ShipStation

I received an email from ShipStation last night, apparently they are updating their systems to 64 bit. They are recommending updating Order ID's to "bigint" to accommodate the changes bt 5/30/24. ZenCart order id's are currently "int(11)".

Here is a LINK to their article.

Seems that there may be some confusion? The use of (11) simply identifies how many characters should be displayed (minimum) when forcing the value to be padded. It doesn't represent the maximum number of digits to allow the value to have.

Or perhaps I misunderstand the perceived issue.

To be honest, I'm not really sure, it's above my pay grade.

I just wanted to share the info here so that people were aware.
