Edit Orders v4.0 Support Thread

Welcome to the new support thread for Edit Orders v4.0.

Edit Orders v4.0 has been submitted to the downloads I will update this thread when it is available

Here's the answer to the most frequently asked question: "What does Edit Orders do?"
(which BTW REALLY IS explained in detail in the readme for those who REALLY wanna know.. it doesn't hurt to download the fileset..)

PURPOSE & AIM
Edit Orders is an admin module that allows store owners to edit a customer's order.
The following edit options are available:

• Change the customer, billing or shipping information on an order
• Add or delete products from an order
• Update product quantities
• Add or subtract values to/from overall order totals

Lastly I want to ask a SMALL favor.. :smile:

When posting bugs/issues about Edit Orders v4.0, it's a WHOLE LOT more helpful to resolve them if you post details. Just saying "it's broken" or "doesn't work" does not provide nearly enough information to help YOU resolve YOUR issue.:smile:

Please provide as MUCH information as possible including the version of Zen Cart you are running, the version of Super Orders you are running, any other add-ons you may have also installed.. Also hosting/server information (PHP versions, mySQL versions, hosting provider etc) is helpful too.

AND if you're REALLY detail oriented, tell us the install sequence/method you used to install Super Orders.:smile:

Hello Diva,
Thank you for updating this add-on. I have only processed a couple of orders and already find myself in a bind needing to edit an order - and can't. I was thrilled to find this add-on and thought I was home free.... or not.
I am using v1.5.0 (php limitations won't allow update to v1.5.1)
It was a fresh install of this version
I added USPS RateV3 January 22, 2012 as instructed
I added group pricing per item (must have for me) via ftp
I have a template that I have heavily modified (appearance only)
I am hosted with godaddy (Linux)

My challenges:
My first concern was compatibility with group pricing. I have no idea how to compare/merge files if this is necessary, or how to find out if it is necessary.
Secondly - I read through your entire read me and I fear I can't use this add-on because of php? The read me says it is not compatible with any php prior to 5.2? I checked my hosting as instructed and it says php 5. I can only assume I am S.O.L because of the php version. Is this the case?

Thank you in advance for your time and any assistance you can offer.

Can't advise about compatibility with Group Pricing.. As i state in the readme, you will need to compare the filesets for both add-ons and compare any common files and merge the changes.. If you do not know how to do this you should consider hiring someone to assist you..

Regarding compatibility with versions lower than 5.3 your are incorrect.. it should be compatible with versions of PHP 5.3 and lower..

Hi Diva,

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I will start with baby steps and open each file in both add-ons and see if any of the names are the same. If I find the same file in both add-ons, I will take your advice and hire someone to merge them for me.

I am still unsure about the php compatibility. I believe you when you say it will work on php 5, but this sentence is in the first paragraph of the read me:
"Please check your host's PHP version. This module will NOT work for hosting configurations using PHP versions older than 5.2.x"

If you don't mind, before I go any further, can you confirm that the warning in the read me is in error? Or do I have my wires crossed?

Thanks again.

If you click the "Version" link at the top right side of any admin page you will see the PHP version on your server. What does it say? I would be surprised if it just says PHP 5 without some type of minor like 5.1.13 or something like that.

Should the following line (60 or thereabouts) in v 139-151 of \YOUR_ADMIN\edit_orders.php
be changed from

$attribute_table_cost = split("[:,]" , $check_what);

to

$attribute_table_cost = preg_split("[:,]" , $check_what);

Thanks

No, not quite. You need to add delimiters too.
http://www.zen-cart.com/entry.php?2-...use-on-PHP-5-3

A-ha! Delimiters = / yes

Is this correct?

Code:

---

$attribute_table_cost = preg_split("/[:,]/" , $check_what);

---

Installed on 1.5 Zen-Cart and everything works well but there is one issue.

Anytime an order is updated, and that includes adding, changing or deleting product the following message stack appears at the top of the screen.

Warning: Nothing to change. The order was not updated.

This happens even though the record updates properly.

Add-ons include Attributes Images and Attributes Stock.

Thanks for this great contribution.

Thank you lankeeyankee! Within Godaddy, it simply stated "php version 5". However, following your instructions to check from within admin, it would appear I am using v. 5.2.17.
I appreciate your time and assistance.

Hi Diva

In the readme file -> Integration with Other Modules portion, you mentioned "if you are in using all three add-ons -- Super Orders, Edit Orders and Ty Package Tracker -- skip this step and DO NOT UPLOAD the orders.php file from the Edit Orders 2_Modified_Core_Files folder.". However, there are two orders.php files in this fold. I think it should be the 70kb one. The other orders.php in language fold should be merged with corresponding files. That's right?

I just uploaded this on vers 1.50. Everything seems to work great in superuser mode. However I have users on the admin page that are not superuser. They can access customers>orders but if they click edit they get an error message that says "Sorry, your security clearance does not allow you to access this resource. Please contact your site administrator if you believe this to be incorrect. Sorry for any inconvenience."

So as the administrator how do I give them access to this? They were able to click edit before I installed Edit Orders tonight. I don't want to make them superusers as they are even more clueless on programming than I am. I am afraid they will mess something up without even knowing and I will be lost on how to fix it since I wasn't there watching when they did it.

Thank you for your help and a great addition!!!

See this post (http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...60#post1160460) for a possible solution.

Thank you for the reply. My extra_data file looks like this

Quote:

---

<?php
// Admin Menu Boxes
define('BOX_CONFIGURATION_EDIT_ORDERS', 'Edit Orders');
// DO NOT EDIT!
define('SUPER_ORDERS_VERSION', '4.0');
// DO NOT EDIT!

---

So what you mentioned isn't it. I am wondering though is it not missing the ?> at the end?

First note there is a known bug with Zen Cart 1.5.0 which does not allow you to grant access to a page for existing profiles (non superusers). This can be fixed by following the instructions in the previous link or by upgrading to Zen Cart 1.5.1.

In Zen Cart 1.5 you can manage profiles and user access to pages from "admin" -> "configuration" -> "admin access management" -> "admin profiles". Once on that page, select the "edit" button next to the profile you wish to edit. On the next page will be a list of "pages". By checking a box you grant permission, by un-checking a box you remove permission.

The issue lat9 pointed out isn't the issue. In Edit Order the filename define is in YOUR_ADMIN_FOLDER/includes/extra_configures.

Not missing.. there's an article in the Zen Cart FAQ that explains why the closing is not required..

ETA: didn't see that lhungil posted the answer.. :laugh:

Hello,

I have Ty Package Tracker v3.1.2 Successfully installed on my shop running 1.5.0,

I'm attempting to install Edit Orders 4.0.3 and wish to install Super Orders 4.0.3 after that,

The core edit files seem to get really conflicted, i tried merging with beyond compare but things didn't work out,

So which do i install first "Edit Orders" or "Super Orders"?

And what do i do with the 2 orders.php files?

I wish someone here could help

Thanks!

Hi

I must say I love this plug-in! We use it all the time.

One thing that I have noticed is that when you add the delivery fee it adds the TAX amount to it (always nice) but then when you revisit the order the TAX amount is not showing.

I.e

Order total is $200 (with no delivery) but when we add delivery $100 (the total becomes $314 - with TAX amount of 14%). However, when you go out of Edit Order you will see that it doesn't do it correctly

Sub-Total (ex VAT): $172
Standard Delivery Fee $100 (should be tax already included)
VAT: $42
Total: R314

The Standared Delivery Fee should say $114

Hello,

I installed Edit Orders 4.0.3 but when trying to:

Click "edit" in an order
Click "Packing Slip"
Click "Invoice"

I get an error page.

Any advise?

Thanks

You are mixing up functionality between Edit Orders and Super Orders.. Edit is a function of Edit orders Invoice & Packing Slips are a function of Super Orders.. Despite the fact that they are setup to work together they are still in fact separate add-ons.. So asking "combo" questions on both support threads is discouraged..

That said you don't say what error, but based on your previous posts my guess would be that you have gotten some or all of these installs done incorrectly. My suggestion is that you rollback to before you installed Edit Orders and the other two add-ons (Ty Package and Super Orders), and start over.. Suggest installing one at a time. (ie instyall Edit Orders, get it working, install Ty Package Tracker, get it working, make sure Edit Orders still works, then install Super Orders and again test that Edit Orders and Ty Package Tracker works.. The readme for all three add-ons covers the install and the integration of these add-ons.. Start over, take your time and I'm pretty sure you will get a better result..

Hello,

Sorry for my last post, i did indeed get mixed up with installations of these 3 add-ons, i installed TY package tracker first a few weeks ago and had it working all fine, then i tried installing Edit Orders which i messed up somewhere,

Now i did rollback to a stage where TY package tracker was working properly and started to install Edit Orders, the problems mentioned in the previous post were because of some important files weren't FTPed correctly, and i did fix it, and Edit orders + Ty package tracker now work perfectly fine!

However i do have 1 issue, when i try to change

Configuration > Edit Orders > Shipping Tax

it stays 0.0 even after updating

Thanks

Anybody have an answer to this?

I have noticed that Edit Order adds TAX to the Delivery Fee. So if I minus the TAX whiling editing then it is fine - but then the order (view from outside Edit Order) shows the amount minus TAX.

Hello there, I have installed Edit Orders (FTP) using the Base Files in the pack. I have no other installations, and I am using ZC 1.5.1. I received the flash note at the top of the admin page that the install was successful. I now see an 'edit' icon on my customer list, when I click on it though, I see the customer order but none of the fields show up as editable. Can someone help me by pointing out where I am going wrong? I would also like to install Admin New Orders when Edit Orders is working.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Suggest you go back to the readme and follow the install instructions again.. Because based on your post it sounds like you have not installed this correctly.. I assume that Admin New Orders is another add-on.. If so you will need to post your Admin New Orders questions on the support thread for that add-on..

Done that, no change. I also realise that Admin New Orders is another add on - it does though require Edit Orders to be installed correctly. I am obviously missing something - just can't find what it is.

Can't help you with issues with the other add-on here.. sorry.. you do need to check in with their support thread

Regarding Edit Orders - Did you install ALL of the files needed?? It's a straight forward install and if you don't see the changes then there has to be something incorrect about your install.. You said you installed the base files.. Did you not follow the install instructions and install the modified core files??

Yes, as I said, I do get that I have to go to another thread for the other add-on. Just trying to get Edit Orders to work... I'll keep trying... :blink:

Thanks anyway :yes:

I hate to be repetitive, but it does sound like you may have missed a step during the installation. Most likely with one of the merges inside the "affected_files". It is easy enough to miss a merge or put something in the wrong place. I'd highly recommend WinMerge or BeyondCompare for this step.

I'd recommend pulling up the readme and walking through each step once again. To view the entire readme you need to make sure you extract the entire contents of the downloaded zip file and then open the readme from the extracted contents.

As you have mentioned you are wisely making sure you have "Edit Orders" installed and working prior to installing "Admin New Orders". Be warned, "Admin New Orders" does not verify the installation of "Edit Orders", it just checks for the presence of some configuration keys added by "Edit Orders". So best to make sure "Edit Orders" is installed and working first :)

If case anybody is having the same problem. I found a solution (please check to make sure correct)

I went to admin/edit_order.php and found line 2053

PHP Code:

---

echo '        <td align="right" class="' . $TotalStyle . '">' . ENTRY_SHIPPING_TAX_RATE . "<input class='amount' name='shippingtaxrate' size='4' value='" . SHIPPING_TAX . "'> %&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"; /* . '</td>' . "\n"; */ 


---

I change this to:

PHP Code:

---

            echo '        <td align="right" class="' . $TotalStyle . '">'; /* . '</td>' . "\n"; */ 


---

Please only use this if you don't want Edit-Order to add the TAX onto the delivery fee again.

Yes, I have the same issue, however I found that if you add something to the comment box, or change the status button it reports success. Be aware it will send an e-mail unless you turn that off, and if you do send one you should add a comment so that they will know what you did.

I have installed edit orders on a new 1.51. When I click on orders I get this message ("Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CASE in /admin/orders.php on line 305(line 247 in your addon). The only addon I have affecting orders.php is COWOA. The line it refers to is (case 'deleteconfirm':) . I have gone over all the code with WinMerge and cannot find the problem. Please help.

I'm afraid that EO is not the source of this issue.. This is not a section of the orders.php file that that is modified by EO. (you can confirm this by doing a compare of the vanilla orders.php against the one that comes with EO)

I suggest double checking all of your orders.php file merges again.. It's like likely that in merging the COWOA changes with the EO changes you may have accidentally borked some of the orders.php file.

I after checking the other files, they were fine. I redid the order.php file and it is working fine now. I missed taking out the one line after edit # 5 of 7 in the edit order addon.

I have installed edit orders on a 1.5.1 website. Everything works fine with editing the order. However, when I need to do a partial refund through Paypal, the refund does not go through. The page looks as though it is refreshing when clicking on the "do partial refund" button - but nothing happens.

Zen Cart 1.5.1
PHP version 5.4.8
No other mods installed that affect the orders.php files
All files have been checked to make sure they are uploaded correctly
Paypal Express checkout uninstalled and re-installed

Has anyone ever encountered this?

THANKS!!

Doesn't matter since none of the Edit Orders modifications to admin\orders.php affects the section of the code which drives the PayPal refunds code..

any resolutions?

Using Zen Cart 1.5 and PHP Version 5.3.5
This was a clean install of 1.5 as I was using shop-scrip for the past 10 years or so.

Have edit orders 4.03 and Super Orders 4.02 installed. Also Image Handler 4 v 4.0.
fedex web services, USPS services, and ceon processing

(although in admin/edit orders version it says 4.02) Don't remember what I installed as this hasn't been working for a few months and don't remember what I installed from as I have Version 4.03 on my computer. So maybe I installed 4.02 and downloaded 4.03 but never got around to upgrading?

Anyway, my issue is that I cannot add a product. It lets me choose the product but when I click Add Now I get "WARNING: An Error occurred, please refresh the page and try again." which gets loopy if I actually follow that instruction.

I can go into customers and select New Order which creates the order but I cannot add any products.

Wondering if you can tell me which file might not have updated and I can either replace it or use win-merge to update.

Thanks!!

Are asking about Edit Order or whatever manual order add-on you installed?? Either way you need to post your error log results so we don't have to GUESS what the issue is..

This is talked about in the readme under "Potential Future Enhancements". As far as I know it does not break any functionality.

Problem is with the extra apostrophe in the product name. It has been awhile since I have looked at the 4.0x branch of Edit Orders... But ...

Try changing all instances in "edit_orders.php" of the following (line 1383, 1394) from:

Code:

---

products_name = '" . str_replace("'", "'", $p_products_name) . "',

---

to

Code:

---

products_name = '" . $db->prepare_input($p_products_name) . "',

---

This will let Zen Cart's DB abstraction layer handle preparing the inputted product name including any required escaping for the database :)

products_name = '" . $db->prepare_input($p_products_name) . "',

---

This will let Zen Cart's DB abstraction layer handle preparing the inputted product name including any required escaping for the database :)

---

Very cool... Thanks - worked like a charm!!!

I still see this at the top when I update:
"Warning: Nothing to change. The order was not updated."

I've seen other postings (in this thread) but no answers as yet??

Thanks again!!

can i please get a link to the installation instructions - they did not come with my download. thanks.

Hi.

I am having difficulty in loading Edit Orders 4.0. Here is some background:

I am in the process of upgrading from 1.3.8 to 1.5.1 on a test server, so this in not live.
Upgrade goes well.
I upgraded the template that I use (Cherry Zen); no problems.
I use Edit Orders on my old site.
PHP is 5.2.17
MySQL is 5.0.91

When I FTP the files to my server, then go to the admin page to activate the auto install I get a blank page. This has happened multiple (5-6) times. It happens when it is the first plugin I install, or if I do it after others (such at Ty Package Tracker which works fine).

I feel like I am missing something simple. I have gone through the installation process in the readme file many times, I don't think I am doing anything wrong.

Could something be interfering with the auto install on this? I don't really know what else could do this.

Any ideas? Thanks is advance.

Blank page = error. Post the results of the error log.. There is an article in the FAQs which explains blank pages and in the FAQs or the Zen Cart users docs will tell you where to find the error logs..

Thanks DivaVocals.

Here is what I found in the error logs:

"[08-Feb-2013 15:59:49] PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare zen_get_country_id() (previously declared in ***/admin/includes/functions/extra_functions/edit_orders.php:34) in ***/admin/includes/functions/extra_functions/edit_orders_functions.php on line 44"

Sounds like you might have leftover code from your previous Edit Orders install.. Suggest rolling back, and removing ALL the old Edit Orders files from your store, then try re-installing Edit Orders again..

Looks like you have an older version of "Edit Orders" still installed. You should delete the older "extra_functions/edit_orders.php". You may want to first uninstall and remove all traces of both this version and older versions... then re-install just the latest version.

Note: Beaten to the answer again! GG DivaVocals! I wish there was a "xyz is posting on this topic" or a "someone posted while you were writing... would you like to review their post before submitting?" option :P

The installation instructions are in the zip file that contains the COMPLETE package (installer files and instructions). You need to unzip the file to read the readme..

how do you go to the main page and activate the auto install for Edit Orders 4. I uploaded the files but nothing happens. Here is my info:

If you follow the instructions you will,

Login into your admin
Upload the EO files
Click ANY LINK in your admin to install

This is all laid out in the readme file.. If any part of the install instructions are not clear it helps if you can let me know what section you need clarification on..

I followed the instructions in the readme. I renamed the folders to my admin folder name, I logged into the admin panel, I uploaded the two folders to the root of my store and in the admin panel clicked on a link, in my case I just clicked on admin home. But its seems nothing happened, I waited for over 20mins and never got a confirmation message.

Is there way to manually install this without using the auto-install which for some reason is not working .

Thank you
Scott

OK well scratch my question, I got it all working.

First I realized I was supposed to upload the contents of the folder I renamed not 1_Base_Files\<Admin Folder Name>
Second when I tried uploading the contents of the folder I was getting permission errors which is because of file permissions I set on the admin folder.

Once I got those two things done everything installed and worked like a charm.

Thanks

Hello,

I'm using Edit orders v4.0 on my shop running 1.5.0, everything is working perfect except that most of the times when i edit a order taxes get messed up,

I have 2 taxes and both become the same amount which is both taxes combined,

For ex. if TAX 1 is $1.75 & TAX 2 is $3.49 when i edit both will be $5.24 to a total of $10.48 in taxes,

Please advise

Thanks

There's a post in this support thread outlining all the known issues with Edit Orders with regards to taxes and such.. please search for it and see if the issue you are having is covered..

We've gone through the thread and don't see any mention of the issue we're having. We have 1.5.1 zen cart and the 1.5.0 Edit Orders installed.

When using a discount code or gift voucher after editing the order the values are changed and wrong.

We do charge tax on shipping in our state. If an order is placed with PayPal or a credit card, we can edit the order. It is only when a discount code or gift voucher is used that the totals end up wrong after editing.

We have changed the setting under configuration to add the tax to shipping. We're thinking it has to do with the sort order of the Payment Total modules but have not had any luck fixing it.

Has anyone else seen this?

In the readme there is a section "Potential Future Enhancements". One of the items on the list is "Improved tax support". Currently Edit Orders does not utilize Zen Cart's order_totals modules (it does it's own math) and there are some known problems with tax calculation. Changing sort_orders (or module tax basis / tax calculation) in "Modules > Order Totals" will have no effect.

It has been awhile since I have reviewed the Edit Order 4.0 code base. If I am remembering correctly the following is how tax is calculated. Note the items in parenthesis.

Currently when you click "update" Edit Orders: calculates the tax due for each product (and adds them together), for discount items such as ot_gv it determines the percentage of the order affected and removes that amount from the tax (yes always removes tax for discounted amounts), calculates the shipping tax based upon the supplied tax rate (on the Edit Orders page), and then adds the shipping the tax directly to the tax column (no separate tax line).

Super Orders, Edit Orders, OR Both:

I hope I can explain this clearly... I have a new client that's excited to do something new from their old site running on Interchange. They have an odd way of processing orders:

1. They use cart to put together order, checkout with credit card info capture via a checkout form, but NO SHIPPING COSTS added yet.

2. The order and credit card info gets encrypted "somehow" and sent to the and they open this pgp encrypted email
and then enter the order into their "main" system.

3. They then calculate the shipping and contact the customer to confirm order.

4. Once order is confirmed, the use Costco/Elavon to charge the card.

They are quite adamant that this is the work flow that they want to use. So I was wondering if Super Orders/Edit Orders can handle this ... or if this is something that is more a credit card processing end of things.

Hope someone can point me in the right direction. I'd hate to do a bunch of work to just end up say "can't do that with zen cart"...

Appreciate any advice!

Super Orders and Edit Orders are post order admin tools.. there is no credit processing that happens in either of these mods..

Yes, I do understand that. I see that v1.5 can do partial/full refunds and also void a transaction which has not yet been settled, or an authorization which has not been captured.

How can I add shipping cost after the order has been placed? Something like an "Update Transaction"? Is there another mod that can do that if neither of these do?

If you are talking about the "grey" payment notifications section on the orders.php page that appears when orders are paid via credit card and PayPal, that is default Zen Cart functionality and it was not added by Super Orders (and it certainly isn't part of Edit Orders). How the notification features work depends entirely on the payment processor. In other words those features work differently with Authorize.net than they do with PayPal. If you need more understanding on this default functionality I'd create a new thread and inquire.. you might also do a search for notifications.php and see if you find anything that might be helpful.

All Super Orders functionality (including the "Payments" feature) is nothing more but simple post sale accounting and order management record keeping functionality (record payments, credits, cancel orders, etc). Edit Orders allows you to edit an order post sale.. None of the features of either mod is not tied to any payment processor or shipping modules of any kind.

You can probably use Edit Orders to add other costs to an order after the fact..

Hi Diva...

Thanks for the info. This is what I was afraid of. That any kind of transaction processing is done outside zencart. This client says that they don't actually "run" the card until the order is ready to ship.

Do you think it would be possible to capture and order (no payment entered), then allow editing of order to verify stock and/or shipping costs, THEN allow the customer to pay for order via credit card?

If something like that is possible, that would probably work for them.

Appreciate the help.

This topic is quite off topic for Edit Order support at this point.. That said, let me say this.. I do believe that Authorize.net supports an "Authorize Only" feature, but you would need to log into Authorize.net to complete the sale.. You'll have to look at Authorize.net, but I believe that from your Authorize.net admin you can then update the order with any other order costs before finalizing the order.. You can probably still work Super Orders and Edit Orders into your client's workflow to update the order (add any final costs send out the final invoice, etc) and record the final payment receipt. I would map the whole process out on paper before reviewing it with your client.. Bottomline is that there is a part of this process that will have to happen outside Zen Cart..

Thanks Diva. I know we were starting to get off target, so I opened a new thread dedicated to that subject. I'm aware of what you describe in authorize.net and I've seen it in virtual terminal, but I don't have any hands on experience at this point. Will have to dig in and get my hands dirty.

Really appreciate the advice!

The readme instructions proved some very detailed instructions on which files need to be merged with other core Zen Cart files.. I'm happy to help if you can help me understand which part of this section of the readme you need more explanation on..

From the installation tab:

There are THREE folders in the fileset

Hedging your bets by posting in both support threads is not going to help you and it's not fair to the people who volunteer here to help if you do not fully disclose the issues you are reporting..

Both Edit Order and this add-on cannot be the issue by themselves. Rather something you've installed or mis-installed is the issue.. You need to roll your store back to the state it was before you installed either of these add-ons and start over..

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.

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..

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.

Installation of Edit Orders is fairly straight forward. As with any other modification to Zen Cart, I would highly recommend you create a backup (files and database) before attempting to install.

The Edit Orders distribution zip includes already pre-merged files (for changes this module requires to existing Zen Cart 1.5 files). These pre-merged files can be found in the "Modified_Core_Files" directory of the distribution zip. If no changes have been previously made to the files found in the "Modified_Core_Files" directory you can simply replace the files in your installation with these files. If you have made any changes in your Zen Cart installation to the files found in "Modified_Core_Files", you will need to manually merge your previous changes into the files found in this folder.

You may be interested in reading the following Zen Cart Wiki entry - Useful Tools: File Comparison Utility. In addition to what is listed there, I believe the Apple Developer Tools (Xcode) includes a utility for doing file comparisons and merges (called FileMerge).

I'd say 99% of the professional tools (and environments) for software development I've used over the years include "version control" (and related tools such as diff and merge). If you are not currently using "version control" I would highly recommend learning and using "version control" tools... Especially for medium to large projects and project with multiple contributors. It may seem like extra steps at first, but the long term benefits are worth the cost IMHO.

If no changes have been previously made to the files found in the "Modified_Core_Files" directory you can simply replace the files in your installation with these files. If you have made any changes in your Zen Cart installation to the files found in "Modified_Core_Files", you will need to manually merge your previous changes into the files found in this folder.

Good information.. and let me add to this:
What you posted is all explained/laid out on the "Installation" tab of the Edit Orders readme file.. I hope folks who download and use Edit Orders will follow the guidelines/suggestions/instructions in the readme when installing Edit Orders.. A lot of time was put into the documents to help make it simple for folks to install/configure/use Edit Orders.. I know folks get annoyed when I refer them back to the readme document. However, if one follows the RTFM kind of mentality, they will find that MANY of the most common questions are addressed in the Edit Orders documentation..

Can I see a screenshot of how the orders page should look if this plugin properly installs?

Never mind. I think I finally got it to install. I was making one crucial dumb mistake. :lamo: Can anyone guess what I was doing wrong? I slapped myself once I realized it. Now time to install something else. Thanks for all of the help. :clap:

Glad you got it all worked out..

Edit Orders 4.1 is a massive rewrite of this module based upon Edit Orders 4.0.3.

Please make sure to completely read the included README! Things have changed and you will want to know what to expect.

Anyone who wishes to install this module should also make a "known good" backup before installing the new version. Do not skip this vital step!

A sneak preview of changes (full list can be found in the README):

• Removed all direct MySQL calls in favor of Zen Cart database abstraction.
• Utilization of the Zen Cart order, order_total, and shipping classes.
• Calculation of subtotal, taxes, total and other Zen Cart "Order Total Lines" are now done in a similar manner as a customer checkout.
• Coupon Codes are checked and automatically applied to an order if valid.
• Ability to add and specify a shipping method and price (no request quote at this time).
• Ability to search for products to add to an order.
• ... many other changes ...

Now go read the README (especially the KNOWN ISSUES)!
One Such Note: This version loads shipping and order total modules from the "admin" interface of Zen Cart. If you have any custom modules, you may need to modify them so they can be loaded within the "admin" interface.

We would also encourage users to first test the installation and use of this module on a "development" site or "clone" of their Zen Cart installation and not their live storefront.

Can anyone recommend someone to install this on my site?

I have the following problem:
1) I make an order (i.e. from front-end). In attached order1 file, the order apperas correctely in admin
2) I try to modify it (attached file order2)
3) When I click on UPDATE (even doing any modification) the order total is put at 0 (zero) with a strange tax amount (attached file order3).

Can you check the "/logs" and "/cache" folder for any error messages?

I have just checked my install which I did a couple of days ago and it is doing exactly the same as nannin described where the order total is zero-ed when I edit a shipping address. The shipping price is still there.
The install went on with no errors. I checked the error log on my cpanel and there are no errors. Any thoughts anyone?

I've not been able to duplicate this yet in a test store or a clone of a production store. Can you supply some additional information?

What version of Edit Orders?
What version of Zen Cart?
What order total modules do you have installed?
What order total modules do you have enabled?
What message did you see at the top of the screen after installing Edit Orders and clicking "Admin Home"?
What if any Zen Cart error logs exist (/cache/ in 1.5.0 and /logs/ in 1.5.1 - use FTP to look)?
What other modifications (plugins, add-ons, etc) have been done?
