Re: Drop Shipping Purchase Orders Module UPDATED for v1.5.x
Last week, I was able to build an auto installer that installs it on fresh copies of zencart 1.5.1 and back along with upgrading older versions. (granted that took 2 hours) However I'm not posting it because I'm not putting my name on the module as it sits. sorry :( Once it is down to a moderate installation level, I'd be happy to post the full module. One that works and is functional without variables like $catmeow....

Understand.. that's why what I did sits on Github..:laugh: It's not finished.. needs a TON more work.. but for what I needed it for it's functional... If you need testers, I'd be happy to help with testing..
May I make a feature suggestion?? it's a VERY simple one.. I know this since it's one that even I was able to execute.. :laugh:
Can your re-write adopt the subcontractors table structure used in the DropShip Core module.. http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1536
Like my client, others may want to connect the Dropship PDF module with Dropship Core, and making this module use the same table name/structure as the sub contractors in Dropship Core means that shopowners will NOT have to enter their subcontractors data twice..

I know right??? :laugh:
Re: Drop Shipping Purchase Orders Module UPDATED for v1.5.x
Yes that should be done...the other issues is there are LARGE portions like hundreds of lines that are duplicate and could be run more efficiently...using switches, functions and classes. The UI is not very intuitive to the untrained eye...about 40-45 hours of work and it would be 3x better. I personally would probably gut it, build an auto upgrading script then modify so you aren't making hacks in things like super orders to make it work. (if you weren't aware when you edit an order it resets the po's sent). Not a simple task...needs to be done...but lower on my priority list right now. Thanks for the offer, as when i get closer I'll run it by you.
Re: Drop Shipping Purchase Orders Module UPDATED for v1.5.x
Sorry I should have read the end of this thread before submitting the minor updates to the addon that I just made.
My client just needed the emailing of POs and packing slips functionality so it is sufficient for his needs, in trying to get it to work I made minor updates to add the missing SQL to register the Configuration > Purchase Orders menu admin page and language file for that menu.
Wish I'd just downloaded your version from Github now :laugh:
Well if it does get accepted at least there will be a version that installs all the menus so others can use it "out of the box" for basic PO functionality while waiting for your superior version gents.

The version on Github is WAY more updated than the one in the free plugins.. Doesn't sound like you may have included all the changes I made to the version in Github. What I have on GitHub is functional and makes HUGE improvements, but as bislewl and I have been discussing, there is SOOOOOOOO much more to this module that needs to be addressed.. Which is why I did not submit what I posted to Github..
What I posted on Github is functional. Which is why I did at least share it here on the support thread.. Just read through the last 2 pages of this thread to see the caveats..

This manual is for v5, but the same principles apply as to how POs are grouped in v3.
Yes - you can add extra information by clicking the box to edit your PO email before sending it and add or change whatever you want to. If you want to automate it, you could always add any tags that you want by making some simple modifications to the source code of admin/send_pos.php. Again, see the manual for v5. There is a better list of the tags that you can use (although I do think there are a couple of these tags that don't work in v3). Sorry, the documentation for v3 just isn't as good as it is for v5.
Great site by the way!
This is a great mod,I have added the customers phone & email as directed in the readme.txt. I also have a wholesale mod added and I need to add the product cost to the P.O. portion for accounting proposes. Above it states that I can add any tag I want by simply editing the send_pos.php. I need to add products_price_w, however I don't see the instructions in the readme.txt and I don't know what else you could mean by thee manual for v5. Please help

If you read back through the last coupla pages of this support thread you will see that this module needs HELP and hasn't really been maintained by anyone for YEARS..
Re: Drop Shipping Purchase Orders Module for v1.3.8
I have downloaded v3.22 of this module. It was just recently uploaded in Oct/15 and says it's compatible with 1.5.1. I am getting database connection errors. If I go to Customers-PO Send/Resend, it says this:
Failed to connect database: 8
The log files say this:
[15-Nov-2015 22:36:23 America/New_York] PHP Warning: mysql_query(): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home1/***/public_html/new/shopadmin/send_pos.php on line 880
[15-Nov-2015 22:36:23 America/New_York] PHP Warning: mysql_query(): A link to the server could not be established in /home1/***/public_html/new/shopadmin/send_pos.php on line 880
Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Took a quick look at the code on github for this plugin, fully agree with the previous discussion of this needing to be updated for overall ZC compatibility, but that aside and related to the above query, what version of PHP is being used on the ZC 1.5.1 store?
Were the instructions followed to "install" the sql? (Asked because not stated above.) There are fields added to the products_orders and orders tables that need to be added/verified added. Absence of those fields could cause the script to fail at that line number.

I assumed version 3.22 would be newer than what is on github since it was just uploaded on October 26. I will look at the github files too.
I just realized I completely entered the wrong version number, I am using version 1.5.4 of Zen-Cart, not 1.5.1. The server is using PHP 5.6, so I'm assuming that is causing the problem? I manually checked and all the tables are there. I am not sure what to do to make this work? I have upgraded this entire site to 1.5.4 and it's ready to go except for this module, which is an absolute requirement for my client.
I am happy to play around with it and try and get it working, I'm just not sure where to start?
