Order Editor 1.3.7 Issues

[edadk]

Thanks for the work on this.

FYI - My store is set up to charge tax on shipping but the mod is not picking this up. I think you know about this already but I thought I'd post it to be sure.

If you read the stuff you are quoting so extensive you should have noticed that all enhancements made in the v2.0 fork should find its way in this one.

I asked because it really wasn't clear that this was your intent.. and for those of us using the "v2.0 fork" I was merely suggesting that it would be good to see those features make their way back into your work. However if you had different plans I wanted to know what those differences were.. Hence my questions..

I will not respond to 2.0 issues because first the basic structure needs rewriting (for all those who sticked to the original 1.5.x branch) and after that when a much more solid framework is there i will start enhancing it with the work that sturner already did to the mod.

I am not taking over the mod only rewriting the official 1.5.x branche and for sure not the 2.x fork and issues regarding that should be addressed to sturner.

I don't think anyone was asking you to address these issues now. I believe we were merely asking if your version of the add-on will address them.. sturner has already indicated that he would not be addressing these issues.. So getting your take on these issue with regards to your future plans for enhancing this add-on is useful information..

I am even puzzled why the moderators even allowed this v2 discussion here while it never is submitted to the add-ons and this still is the support thread for the 1.x.x version that is in the download section.

For better or worse, this is not the only add-on where the support thread has continued on with discussions that revolve around updated versions not available in the downloads section..

As for this particular add-on the bulk of the recent discussions have mostly been centered around v2. Most folks running 1.3.8 or better are indeed using this version.. Hence the reason the support thread has included discussion about that particular version..

I will first make the basic structure according to ZC1.39 standards (and not ZC1.2 where it is now) before putting in new stuff or patchwork from others.
I have written it a few posts back buth repeat it here for clarity:
I respect the work others did to this mod and will incorporate the enhancements they made in a later stage.

Again it was not clear that this was the direction you were moving in.. Hence the reason I asked the question..

For now i think it is better to forget the 2.0 in this thread for a while and concentrate first on the basic and keep this discussion for where it was intended for: orders 1.3.x support.

This won't stop others from continuing to ask questions about v2 or others from answering.. Since your version promises to be much improved versions of the currently available versions, perhaps a new support thread is in order??

From here on i will spend my time on the mod and supporting it and not on endless discussions about what should be in because it is in some other version.

Wasn't trying to start an endless discussion.. I merely asked for clarification on the direction you are moving in. Your answers have clarified things.. So I'll wait to see your releases as they are made available.. I'm sure that others wanted to know/understand the same things I was asking about.. Particularly those of us who use v2 of this add-on so that we can make decisions about our future use of this add-on.

Submitted v1.5.5 and waiting for approval.
Please give feedback here so that i receive notification of feedback and/or problems.

Again it is not the real thing yet and the more time i spend on this mod the more i discover how weird it is behaving.
The to-do list is growing and in the end i will get there it is only taking some time to get everything fixed.

With 1.5.5 clicking 'edit' brings up the edit orders screen as expected, but after this my whole admin breaks and no matter what I click next in the admin I get a blank screen.

The only way to fix this is to delete all cookies relating to my site, then it works again!

Dont know if thats related to the same error as above?

If anyone can help, it would be appreciated.

Searching the Tutorials/FAQs for "blank screen" brings up this article: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=82

First time after install (and in special when upgrading) this behaviour can be expected and i should have written that in the documentation.
I am more interested in how it behaves after the cookie cleanup.

For DrByte: I have full access to the logs and nothing is there, also the testing is done in a setup not visible to the world with error reporting on and debug enabled.

As always with software if someone else than the programmer starts using it the problems pop up and that is the reason feedback is needed.

I have checked error logs, and nothing is there.

If I click to edit the order, that works ok. When I click update (whether I have changed anything or not) or if I now try and click anything else in the admin I get blank screen.

I now get the blank screen for every single admin page. Once I remove all cookies, the admin pages start working again but require a new login.

Cookie clean up solves the problem, but I have to do this everytime after accessing the edit order page, which of course makes the edit order page unusable.

Let me know if you need more info.

That is very strange and i will try to replicate the situation you have.
Because i do not have this problems i need more info like the zen version, browser, os, webserver and other mods installed because it could be a dependency with another mod.

I suspect another mod is playing tricks because i test with zen 1.39h, 4 browsers on 3 different operating systems and 2 versions of apache server.
One clean setup with only edit orders and the other with all mods installed as on my live shop.

Zen cart was recently updated to 1.3.9.h. This problem occurs with all browsers (Firefox, IE, Opera, Chrome and under Win XP and Linux) Server is Apache/2.2.3 (Fedora) PHP Version 5.2.10. Other mods.....I have a few installed, trying to think of ones that could interfere.......not really sure?

All was working fine to upgraded to 1.3.9h and upgraded edit orders to 1.5.5

I might try reverting back to an old version of edit orders.

I am not able to replicate your problem.
Your setup sounds the sme as my copy of the life shop.
Upfraded from 1.38a to 1.39h with edit-orders 1.53 installed.
This mod has alway been a troublemake and that is the reason is started modifiying with 1.53 as starting point.
Would you be so kind to roll back to edit orders 1.5.3 to see if the problem then disappears.

And if anyone is using 1.5.5. please report before i continue.
