In includes/templates/your_template/templates/tpl_checkout_success_default.php

I removed this:

Code:

---

<!--bof logoff-->
<div id="checkoutSuccessLogoff">
<?php
  if (isset($_SESSION['customer_guest_id'])) {
    echo TEXT_CHECKOUT_LOGOFF_GUEST;
  } elseif (isset($_SESSION['customer_id'])) {
    echo TEXT_CHECKOUT_LOGOFF_CUSTOMER;
  }
?>
<div class="buttonRow forward"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_LOG_OFF , BUTTON_LOG_OFF_ALT); ?></a></div>
</div>
<!--eof logoff-->

---

The Logoff link appears in my header anyway. And many other sites that I have shopped at do not remind you to logoff after checkout. Maybe they might have automatic logoff? I don't know, I never bothered to test that. I also added this...

Optional (to give them a little more info)-
right after this line:

Code:

---

<?php if(!($_SESSION['COWOA'])) { ?> <div id="checkoutSuccessOrderLink"><?php echo TEXT_SEE_ORDERS;?></div> <?php } ?>

---

I added:

Code:

---

<div>You will receive an order confirmation email containing the details of your order.
<br class="clearBoth" />
You will receive a shipping confirmation email when your item(s) have shipped.
</div>

I switched servers yesterday and the old version of this mod did not like my new server, so I installed the new version. It works wonderfully on 1.3.6, except I also had this problem:

For note of 1.36 installation. The paypal express codes will throw out errors on page 3 of check out, as paypal express is not in 1.36. You need to edit tpl_checkout_payment_default.php and remove 4 instances of paypal express checkout codes, they are all quoted out, so fairly easy to identify.

I am so glad I figured it out fairly quickly. If no one else is going to do it, maybe I will fix that file (can't give out mine, its really customized) and maybe Joe can add it to the zip???

Also had the issue with the checkout success logoff from the previous post. But these two things are very minor and easily fixable. This mod is fantastic!

I have had increased sales, but I do not know if it is in fact this mod that did the trick or if it is some of the other things I have been doing to increase traffic, improve the speed of the site, etc. When I had the old version of this mod installed, most people checked out without creating an account (could tell back them with the period at the end of their email address).
That certainly tells me something.

Geez, I just wont shut up.....


Joe, I tested the Super Orders code changes and this is what happened:

1054 Unknown column 'COWOA_account' in 'field list'
in:
[SELECT customers_name, customers_email_address, date_purchased, COWOA_account FROM orders WHERE orders_id = '16666']
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

Alright, that column should be COWOA_order, not COWOA_account.

I wish I could go back to the old post and say 'NOOOOO! DON'T LISTEN!'. Oh well, mistakes of the past. If anybody is reading this, I'll eventually have the full and correct information in the wiki regarding the Super Orders and PDF Order Center mods.

And, I'd absolutely love the 1.3.6 files. I think I'll package them separately and put a note in the install file regarding where to download them.

--Joe

PS: If that doesn't work, I'm lost, sorry, and will find a fix next weekend. (; I did write it wrong originally, but just to confirm that will only work with the SQL version.

Yes, I am now using the sql version. I just tried it again. No errors this time, but still sends detailed invoice links in text emails to non-account customers. Don't worry about it. I usually only use Super Orders for editing order totals. I can send emails through the regular orders page. :smile:

Tried installing on another installation, this time a windows server, I get this:

1054 Unknown column 'true' in 'where clause'
in:
[select count(*) as total from customers where customers_email_address = '[email protected]' and COWOA_account != true]

This comes out after page 1/5 after the customer enters the address etc and hit continue checkout..

any idea?

You sure the sql patch was applied and went OK?
Trying pasting it in again

i believe so, it says 3 instructions executed, then I looked into the tables,

Customer table has this:

COWOA_account tinyint(1) No 0 Change Drop Primary Index Unique Fulltext

should be correct right? Can I run it again? will duplication occur?

the last line of the sql:

INSERT INTO query_builder ( query_id , query_category , query_name , query_description , query_string ) VALUES ( '', 'email,newsletters', 'Permanent Account Holders Only', 'Send email only to permanent account holders ', 'select customers_email_address, customers_firstname, customers_lastname from TABLE_CUSTOMERS where COWOA_account != true order by customers_lastname, customers_firstname, customers_email_address');

what does this do? how do I check this has gone in successfully?
