Modified core files. I don't understand how to modify them. My apologies for being too vague.

If you have installed any mods which make changes to the files in this folder, you will need to use a tool like Winmerge or Beyond Compare to incorporate those changes into these files.

---

Winmerge and Beyond Compare are programs that allow you to compare two files and merge the differences between the two files.. This support thread is not the right place to explain how to use file merging software.. If you do not know how to use file merging tools, you can use the user manuals from the program to help you with using these programs. If you think this is still over your head, then you need to consider hiring someone to help you install this module.

I have an Apple so I'll try using diff merge for these two files, which appear to be orders.php. I think it's my problem. I had to restore those two files from my zen cart folder so orders would work the same as before I tried installing edit orders 4.0.

And my response to this post..

The two have nothing to do with each other. Yes, they have the same problem and that is only by coincidence. Please don't over analyze my postings. The two are the same in wording, but completely different for what I'm attempting to accomplish. In no way am I trying cause unfairness for other forum users.

Understood.. and not over analyzing.. making an observation.. I am hoping you can get things all worked out.. My suggestion for getting there is to start over from a point from BEFORE you installed the mods you are having issues with.. Then install them one at a time and make sure it is working fully before you install the next one.. This way you can better narrow down the source of issues..

I can't seem to get the files to correctly merge because I am on an Apple machine. Does anyone have the merged files they could post for download or send me?

No.. because we wouldn't have your store's modified UNIQUE files to merge the Edit Order changes into.. The common files that are in the modified files folders may be modified differently in your store versus someone else's store..

Gonna respectfully suggest that you might want to consider hiring someone to help you get this module all setup..

I suppose I could go line for line and edit the php files myself, but I'm not going to pay someone to do that seeing that I'm a software engineer/programmer myself. I'm simply missing something, somewhere.

If you are using a file merging program, it should highlight the differences for you so you don't have to go line by line..

If I upload my files to you can you merge them? I can't find the right application to make it happen on my Apple. I wish more software was cross-platform.
