Super Orders v4.0 Support Thread for ZC v1.5.x

How are you not throwing dozens of errors on the lack of quotes around all of these things like this ENTRY_AMOUNT_APPLIED_CUST v this 'ENTRY_AMOUNT_APPLIED_CUST' all throughout all these files???

Anyway looks very similar at least I know I wasn't nuts with my solutions.

Yes, I suspect some of the core file overwrites could be handled using notify/observer processing; however I was on a tight timescale to get a working version into a site that a client was pushing to get put live. For sure the language edits could go into extra_definitions files too.

When I'm not so busy I'll try and find time to look at improving things further.

When it's defined you use the quotes like

Code:

---

define('ENTRY_AMOUNT_APPLIED_CUST', 'Amount Applied:');

---

but when you output the define you just do

Code:

---

echo ENTRY_AMOUNT_APPLIED_CUST;

---

If you put quotes around it like

Code:

---

echo 'ENTRY_AMOUNT_APPLIED_CUST';

---

then it will literally echo ENTRY_AMOUNT_APPLIED_CUST to the screen.

Yes several things that didn't work on mine work on yours so clearly you have a better handle on it although I never use these things like the payment options etc but it is nice to have them working properly.

I also appreciate you labelled the edits which drove me nuts as some were labelled and some were labelled with a persons initials etc.

Thanks for that; I realize that it was a big project! One other thing to consider is that I've now got a Ty Package Tracker (https://github.com/lat9/zen_TyPackageTracker) that's a drop-in solution and integrates with both the zc157 orders.php and now-current versions of Edit Orders.
