Manual orders using check/moneyorder

[bpoilspill]

Currently our store uses PayPal to process payments, but we also have a merchant account we use for telephone orders and stuff. I know about Master Password, but my question is, how would I get past the checkout process without charging?

You could use the Check/Money Order moneyorder ... or clone that for something like instore payment or whatever you are trying to do ...

You could also customize it further in some manner to only work for you and not show to other customers but you are not giving enough details to tell you ...

There is also a Purchase Order add on if I am not mistaken in the Free Software Add ons that might work for you ...

I guess I could clone the Free Order payment module, and edit it somehow to only be used by the admin account. I know nothing of PHP and databases though, I've only worked with entry Python, C++, and JAVA.

Let's say you wanted to only show the Check/Money Order moneyorder payment module for your IP Address ...

You could use:

      $this->enabled = ((MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);

// bof: only show for one ip address
if (!IS_ADMIN_FLAG) {
  if ($_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] != 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX') {
    $this->enabled = false;
  }
} 
// eof: only show for one ip address

where XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX is your IP Address ...

That would work, however would it be possible to add multiple IP's by using an OR operator? If anything possible just by my admin account?

  if ($_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] != 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' || $_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] != 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' || $_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] != 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX') {

When I add an || in, and another IP, the money order option does not come up anymore. It did work with just my IP.

Here's code:

	  // bof: only show for one ip address
	  if (!IS_ADMIN_FLAG) {		if ($_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] != '98.208.140.119' || $_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] != '97.100.83.23'){		
	  $this->enabled = false;			
		}		
	  } 		
	  // eof: only show for one ip address

[Ajeh]

Silly me ... should use && rather than || ...

I was just following along with your OR question and not the reality of how to do this ...

if ($_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] != 'XXXXXX' && $_SESSION['customers_ip_address'] != 'XXXXXXXX') {

Lol, that did the trick though. I get those AND's and OR's mixed up sometimes too

Thanks for the code!!

One last thing. Where would I change the output for payment type in this code? Basically where it says Payment Method: Check/Money Order on the invoice and in the e-mail, I basically want to change to manual order.
