Add Customers from admin addon

Found this doing a google search. I don't know who this person is, if they are reliable, if the fileset is safe or harmful, if the modifications work or don't work...but thought I'd share it for those who want to test it.

Well this is much more helpful than just saying that "it works".

While that version adds the admin_page registration required for v1.5.0, it also loses the multi-language changes that garden added on 8/2/2012. From what I have seen from a WinMerge of the beta and garden's version is that the beta adds the installation SQL to add the tool to the admin menu and the swapping of the state and zipcode display on the form entry. The 1.5.0 beta version also doesn't include the sample .csv file.

I'm currently looking making a 1.5.0 version that does an auto-install; if the current users could help me by compiling a change-request/bug-fix list, I'll put the v1.5.0 (only) plugin together.

Got two things.. One is a definite bug with this mod, the other is a feature enhancement

Hey Diva!

I managed to get the re-send working... but haven't updated my modded version to 1.5 yet! My code shouldn't be too hard to patch into a new version if someone does the 1.5 update.

Awesome!!! Post your changes here so lat9 can get at 'em.. Sounds like he's gonna lead the charge on this one..

(On another note.. I know I know I know.. I owe you an e-mail reply.. Trying to split myself into tow or free up some time to get back to you..)

Yes, this is the same place that I found the Beta version of this addon: http://www.samuelsena.com/zen-cart-v...om-admin-beta/.

Looking forward to the updates and fixes!

I'll look forward to the "resend email" code; I'm not sure what exactly how the display should be formatted.

I've got the zone_id problem done, but am looking at the date-of-birth format. Should the date format be based on the DATE_FORMAT_SHORT that's present in ADMIN/includes/languages/english.php (or whatever the current language is) rather than the hard-coded YYYYMMDD?

I'd say use the language constant versus something hard-coded for additional language support..

OK, I'll look at making the date format more "flexible".

A little guidance on how people expect the "Resend Welcome Email" to work would be appreciated. Should there be a drop-down list of customers, you select one and then click the "Email" button to resend? Does this function also reset the customer's password? I ask because the welcome email currently sends the user their 'initial' password and there's no way to know what the password is after-the-fact.
