Where is the correct and current download for this?
Thanks,

I have this installed and it works like a champ! I do, however, have an astetics issue. It the customer uses cowoa the step/arrow indicator works great. If yhe customer creates an account the step/arrow indicator is not so neatly displayed. The last step gets pushed underneath the first step. Any idea what I should do to correct? Thanks!
Hi PastGenToys,
You could try changing the padding around line 9 in the all the COWA css files from 3 to 0, it seems to have worked for others. You could also play around wih the margin spacings (margin: 10px 10px;) around line 11. :)
Has anyone had trouble displaying the 'Order Status' link in the information box? Is there a switch setting to display it or is it supposed to appear once the mod is installed.
Hi Guys,
If you want to display the COWA 'Order Status' link in your information box...
in:
includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/english.php
add the following to the bottom of the define list:
// information box text in sideboxes/information.php:
define('BOX_INFORMATION_ORDER_STATUS', 'Order Status');
then in the sidebox module:
/includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/information.php
add the code after: unset($information); - found at about line 12 - where you want the link to appear:
if (DEFINE_ORDER_STATUS <= 1) {
$information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ORDER_STATUS) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_ORDER_STATUS . '</a>';
}
upload the edited files and the link should appear in the Information side box.
Hope it helps. :)
I have COWA installed and it works great, except the customers are not receiving an email order confirmation upon checkout. They enter their email address during COWA checkout so I how do I get it to send them an email order confirmation???
Thanks!
I'm having the same problem. The buyers are not receiving a email confirmation, and it has to do with the period at the end of their email address.
So when they click "Confirm Order" it goes to a white page that reads "Email Error: Could not instantiate mail function."
Is there a fix for this??? :dontgetit
Also, in the admin, when I try to use the "email customer" button, it cannot send to them, cos the of the address with the period.
I have given up on the COWOA mod, and modified the current login page to give the customer the appearance of not creating an account.
By modifying the login page 'Sign Up' button and text.
You can see an example of what I did here: https://northcountrychapel.com/shop/...ain_page=login
I edited these files
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
includes/languages/english/button_names.php
Line 67, I changed this:
define('BUTTON_CREATE_ACCOUNT_ALT', 'Sign Up');
to be this:
define('BUTTON_CREATE_ACCOUNT_ALT', ' Continue Check Out » ');
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
includes/languages/english/login.php
Line 19, I changed this:
define('TEXT_NEW_CUSTOMER_POST_INTRODUCTION_SPLIT', 'Create a Customer Profile with <strong>' . STORE_NAME . '</strong> which allows you to shop faster, track the status of your current orders, review your previous orders and take advantage of our other member\'s benefits.');
to be this:
define('TEXT_NEW_CUSTOMER_POST_INTRODUCTION_SPLIT', 'New customers click Continue Check Out.');
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
includes/templates/MY_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_login_default.php
Around Line 19, beneath "Use Split Login" code, I styled the 2 options to stack on top of each other. This way the "New Customer" box was on top of the "Returning Customers".
NOTE - Be sure to remove the old COWOA box
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Code:<fieldset class="centerColumn" id="">
<legend><?php echo HEADING_NEW_CUSTOMER_SPLIT; ?></legend>
<?php // ** BEGIN PAYPAL EXPRESS CHECKOUT ** ?>
<?php if ($ec_button_enabled) { ?>
<div class="information"><?php echo TEXT_NEW_CUSTOMER_INTRODUCTION_SPLIT; ?></div>
<div class="center"><?php require(DIR_FS_CATALOG . DIR_WS_MODULES . 'payment/paypal/tpl_ec_button.php'); ?></div>
<hr />
<?php echo TEXT_NEW_CUSTOMER_POST_INTRODUCTION_DIVIDER; ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php // ** END PAYPAL EXPRESS CHECKOUT ** ?>
<?php echo zen_draw_form('create', zen_href_link(FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT, 'action=process', 'SSL')); ?>
<div class="buttonRow forward"><?php echo zen_image_submit(BUTTON_IMAGE_CREATE_ACCOUNT, BUTTON_CREATE_ACCOUNT_ALT); ?></div>
</form>
<div class="information"><?php echo TEXT_NEW_CUSTOMER_POST_INTRODUCTION_SPLIT; ?></div>
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="">
<legend><?php echo HEADING_RETURNING_CUSTOMER_SPLIT; ?></legend>
<div class="information"><?php echo TEXT_RETURNING_CUSTOMER_SPLIT; ?></div>
<?php echo zen_draw_form('login', zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, 'action=process', 'SSL')); ?>
<label class="inputLabel" for="login-email-address"><?php echo ENTRY_EMAIL_ADDRESS; ?></label>
<?php echo zen_draw_input_field('email_address', '', 'size="18" id="login-email-address"'); ?>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<label class="inputLabel" for="login-password"><?php echo ENTRY_PASSWORD; ?></label>
<?php echo zen_draw_password_field('password', '', 'size="18" id="login-password"'); ?>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<div class="buttonRow forward"><?php echo zen_image_submit(BUTTON_IMAGE_LOGIN, BUTTON_LOGIN_ALT); ?></div>
<div class="buttonRow back important"><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN, '', 'SSL') . '">' . TEXT_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN . '</a>'; ?></div>
</form>
</fieldset>
Hopefully this will help other people who are having issues with the COWOA and are looking for another option.
The obvious draw back to this, is if a customer just decides to create an account, while nothing is in their shopping cart, the Sign up page appears to be a check out page. As I very rarely have anyone decide to just create an account, I think this benefit out weighs the drawback.
