Re: Super Orders v3.0 Support Thread
....wow! i'm seriously honoured you're using my modifications!
my apologies to everyone about not sharing the code here :blush: i felt that since i'd mucked around so much, i'd lost track of exactly *where* i'd fiddled, and couldn't really give a "replace here to here" kind of submission :P
Also, advance apologies for my possible lack of forum-etiquitte...this is the first forum i've ever really comitted to. Complete forum noob here....educate me! corrupt me!
I don't mind putting in a little work if people find it useful - i'd be happy to have a bit of a hack at the multiple attribute titles issue - who knows if or when i might even need it! In theory it shouldn't be too hard - a bit of a loop around an array that already exists; i just haven't attempted it yet, as i thought this would be in the new version! And i'll make sure to post the mod here once i'm done this time :wink:
I've been continuing my work on this pdf output - i've also added the store logo to the top left, print date to top right, i'm working on a total item/value/packages count at the bottom, but *something* in the product loop keeps resetting the variables...I didn't want to go too far on it, as i thought this pdf output was what was being updated..didn't want to go reinventing the wheel!
Oh, and shipping method is definitely on of my top mods to work on. I need it. the AustPost shipping module is just making it a bit difficult for me to work with. I've got it displaying the "main" shipping method (for example, Australia Post), but not the 'sub' method (the choice between parcel/express).
Thanks again for an awesome contrib, i'm lovin' it.

As you can understand, I can't incorporate EVERYTHING people ask about here into the codebase.. From my perspective, Super Orders has to serve a WIDE audience.. So I make changes base don that perspective..
BUT...
others might be looking for the VERY change YOU are making and so I ENCOURAGE you to share your changes with the community!!
That said ScriptJunkie shared with me your changes to the "Master Packingslip List" (for those who don't know what this is, part of the PDF Packingslip features includes a master LIST of packing slips.. Think of it as a summarized order picklist)
My apologies for not understanding that the "Master Packingslip List" is what you were updating as opposed to the PDF Packingslip itself..
ANYWAY...
I'm LOVING the checkboxes and other changes you made to the "Master Packingslip List"..:clap: The addition of the customer address, and the modifications to the layout are outstanding and a must have IMHO!!! I have merged your changes into the "Master Packingslip List" in new fileset that I plan to submit (hopefully this weekend)
I am thinking that shipping method would also be something useful to include on the "Master Packingslip List" as well.. Gonna see if I can tackle that at some point for a later release..

I can help with that :) I compared the file you gave me with the file that came with SO3. These are the resulting changes:
1. Add tick/check box in front of each order item
2. Add spaces between each order item line
3. Decrease order item font size in order to make room for the addition of customer address
4. Moved Product ID Number and Order Date to align right
5. Added customer address (aligned right)
These changes make the master packing slip pdf (found in batch printing) much easier to read and much more functional! Thanks Fo0bar!
Here's the code:
EDIT 1
At or about Line 219, Find:
PHP Code:
$pdf->Cell(10, 10, '', 'LRTB');
On the next line, Replace This:
PHP Code:
$pdf->MultiCell(566, 12, $headingLine);
With This:
PHP Code:
$pdf->SetFontSize('10');
$pdf->Cell(450, 12, $headingLine,'','0');
$orderRightBox = '#' . $order->info[id] . ' ' . zen_date_short($order->info['date_purchased']) . ' ';
$pdf->MultiCell('180','10',$orderRightBox,'','','R');
$pdf->SetFontSize('6');
$shipTo = zen_address_format($order->delivery['format_id'], $order->delivery, 0, '', "\n");
if($order->delivery['street_address'] == ''){
$shipTo = zen_address_format($order->customer['format_id'], $order->customer, 0, '', "\n");
}
$pdf->Cell('580','10',$shipTo,'','','R');
$pdf->MultiCell(566,2,'');
EDIT 2
At or about Line 226, Find:
PHP Code:
if ($orderText != ''){
On the next line, Replace This:
PHP Code:
$orderText .= ', ';
With This:
PHP Code:
$orderText = '';
//$orderText .= ', ';
EDIT 3
At or about Line 227, Find:
On the next line, Replace This:
PHP Code:
$orderText .= '(' . $order->products[$i]['qty'] . ') ' . $order->products[$i]['name'] . '/' . $order->products[$i]['model'];
With This:
PHP Code:
//This modification displays the attribute title in the line.
$attribText = (!$order->products[$i]['attributes'][0]['value']) ? '' : (' - ' . $order->products[$i]['attributes'][0]['value']) ;
$orderText .= ' ' . $order->products[$i]['qty'] . 'x ' . $order->products[$i]['name'] . '/' . $order->products[$i]['model'] . $attribText;
$pdf->Cell(27, 10, '');
$pdf->Cell(8, 8, '', 'LRTB');
$pdf->Cell(5, 0, '');
$pdf->SetFontSize('6');
$pdf->MultiCell(520, 10, $orderText); //display order text
EDIT 4
At or about Line 230, Find:
PHP Code:
/* order object doesn't include orderid. added id to info so we can retrieve it here */
On the next line, Replace This:
PHP Code:
$orderText = '[#' . $order->info[id] . ' ' . zen_date_short($order->info['date_purchased']) . '] ' . $orderText;
$pdf->Cell(27, 12, '');
$pdf->MultiCell(549, 12, $orderText);
With This:
PHP Code:
$pdf->MultiCell(520,8,'');

Brilliant - all of you. Anyone for Cointreau with their coffee.

Re: Super Orders v3.0 Support Thread
Excellent!
...and how far away is the new release? i've nailed the multiple attributes code if you'd like to include it, basically replace the code i mentioned above with the following code:
PHP Code:
$attribCount=(sizeof($order->products[$i]['attributes']));
if($attribCount>1){
//more than one attribute in array
$aC=0;
while($aC < $attribCount){
$attribText .= ' - ' . $order->products[$i]['attributes'][$aC]['value'];
$aC++;
}
}else{
$attribText = (!$order->products[$i]['attributes'][0]['value']) ? '' : (' - ' . $order->products[$i]['attributes'][0]['value']) ;
}
$orderText .= ' ' . $order->products[$i]['qty'] . 'x ' . $order->products[$i]['name'] . '/' . $order->products[$i]['model'] . $attribText;
hope this helps :)

Re: Super Orders v3.0 Support Thread
The new release is as far away as the free time I have allows.. Sorry to be vague, but my day job and paid side work will ALWAYS trump free contributions.. :laugh::laugh:
Seriously though.. I hope to have it compiled and testing done this weekend.. All depends on my tester's schedule too.. I don't want to release this until I get feedback from testers.. Gonna try and toss something out tonight to the testers..
and BTW, I don't mind sharing code with others who will REALLY test and provide feedback.. But be prepared.. asking to test doesn't mean I will send out the code.. I tend to be VERY selective about who I share code with pre-submission because too many times I've had folks who didn't REALLY want to test, they simply wanted to get the "latest & greatest" version of a module.. (hideCategories is one example of where a few folks **ahem** stretched the truth about doing "testing" to scam .. I mean obtain a "pre-release" copy of the mod)
In the meantime, your multiple attributes code for the Master Packingslip List looks loads simpler than the multiple attributes code being used for the PDF Packingslip. I was planning on trying to incorporate the PDF Packingslip multiple attributes code into the Master Packingslip List, but yours looks MUCH simpler.. (and you say it's working?? hmmmm)

i've tested it with 2 attributes (only short term as it was on a live shop.. don't try this at home, kids), and it's working great; the way it's written should work for virtually unlimited attributes - it displays it as:
[product text]MODELNUMBER - att1 - att2 - att3
and all the single-attribute products display the same as in my previous mod :)
i'll be back in 12 hours - it's 4:30am!
[edit]
it's actually still running live with that mod; i haven't changed it back 'cause it's working - just removed the item's second attribute :P

I do not have a screenprint to hand however
Product A x 3
Product B x 2
Product C x 4
Total Products = 3 (A+B+C)
Total Quantity = 9 (3+2+4)
Provides extra QA. Useful when like products are bundled prior to final packaging, although can be problematic with products sold by dimension (eg metres/rope) or dollar amounts (eg donations, gift certs).
Hope this helps.

It's a good one, and VERY worthy of inclusion!!! Take a bow, you totally deserve it!!

Let me make sure it's clear what code I was planning on submitting..:smile:
What I have is the update to support multiple attributes on the PDF Packinglist, but NOT the PDF Master Packingslip LIST.
It was an over-sight on my part really not to ask the original contributor of the PDF Packingslip code to update the Master Packingslip List as well as the the PDF Packingslip.
BUT since you have provided a working version of the multiple attributes code for the Master Packingslip List, I add that and test it too..:smile:

Awesome.. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.. Just remember that SHARESIES is always a GOOD thing!!:laugh:

Ahhh.. Will have to have a looksee.. So the attributes are lined up horizontally next to the model number??
The new multiple attributes code i have from the original contributor created arranges the attributes on the PDF Packingslip as follows:
Quote:
Product detail line
att1
att2
att3
