Regulations

[Nick1973]

Hi I'm trying to set up a new regulation in 'Configuration, Regulations'

So far I've managed to set this up in the database by adding a new row. The row is called DISPLAY_DELIVERY_ON_CHECKOUT.

This will then force the customer to tick a box once they've entered delivery instructions.

I've edited tpl_checkout_payment_default so it displays an extra checkbox on the website to do this and the new regulation shows up in the admin however when you go through the payment process step 2 just shows up a blank page.

This is what I've done with the code in tpl_checkout_payment_default

<?php
if (DISPLAY_CONDITIONS_ON_CHECKOUT == 'true') {
?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_CONDITIONS; ?></legend>
<div><?php echo TEXT_CONDITIONS_DESCRIPTION;?></div>
<?php echo zen_draw_checkbox_field('conditions', '1', false, 'id="conditions"');?>
<label class="checkboxLabel" for="conditions"><?php echo TEXT_CONDITIONS_CONFIRM; ?></label>
</fieldset>


<?php
if (DISPLAY_DELIVERY_ON_CHECKOUT == 'true') {
?>

<fieldset>
<?php echo zen_draw_checkbox_field('delivery', '1', false, 'id="delivery"');?>
<label class="checkboxLabel" for="delivery"><?php echo TEXT_DELIVERY_INSTRUCTIONS; ?></label>
</fieldset>
<?php
}
?></fieldset>


However if I take out this line

<?php
if (DISPLAY_DELIVERY_ON_CHECKOUT == 'true') {
?>

The check box displays, although doesn't force the customer to tick it.

So any ideas on how I might get this to function correctly?

Please see the graphic attached for how step 2 of the payment process should display.

Thanks

You are missing a } in your code.

Try the code below:

<?php
if (DISPLAY_CONDITIONS_ON_CHECKOUT == 'true') {
?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_CONDITIONS; ?></legend>
<div><?php echo TEXT_CONDITIONS_DESCRIPTION;?></div>
<?php echo zen_draw_checkbox_field('conditions', '1', false, 'id="conditions"');?>
<label class="checkboxLabel" for="conditions"><?php echo TEXT_CONDITIONS_CONFIRM; ?></label>
</fieldset>


<?php
}

if (DISPLAY_DELIVERY_ON_CHECKOUT == 'true') {
?>

<fieldset>
<?php echo zen_draw_checkbox_field('delivery', '1', false, 'id="delivery"');?>
<label class="checkboxLabel" for="delivery"><?php echo TEXT_DELIVERY_INSTRUCTIONS; ?></label>
</fieldset>
<?php
}
?></fieldset>

To force the user to check the box, you can maybe add a quick javascript function to show an alert with an error message if the box is not checked.

it would be something like:

<script type="text/javascript">
function validate()
{
      if(document.forms[0].conditions.checked == false)
      {
            alert('Please accept the conditions!');
            return false;
      } else {
            return true;
      }

}
</script>

and add the following to your form tag:

onSubmit="return validate();"

Hi Pierre, Thanks for that. It worked with your code adding in }

However it doesn't fire up a red warning message such as the one that gets displayed when you don't check the terms and conditions checkbox.

Like this one ' Please confirm the terms and conditions bound to this order by ticking the box below. '

So how would I get it to do this? I assume its just a case of setting the checkbox to 'REQUIRED'.

I've tried various Javascripts to do this but none seem to work correctly. And besides, having this controlled from the shop admin makes it easier if it needs to be turned off.

Please can you let me know if you can shed any light on how I get this to fire up a warning message if the box hasn't been checked?

Many Thanks

edit the file includes/modules/pages/checkout_confirmation/header_php.php

Find around line 51:

if (DISPLAY_CONDITIONS_ON_CHECKOUT == 'true') {
  if (!isset($_POST['conditions']) || ($_POST['conditions'] != '1')) {
    $messageStack->add_session('checkout_payment', ERROR_CONDITIONS_NOT_ACCEPTED, 'error');
  }
} 

add this just below that:

if (DISPLAY_DELIVERY_ON_CHECKOUT == 'true') {
  if (!isset($_POST['delivery']) || ($_POST['delivery'] != '1')) {
    $messageStack->add_session('checkout_payment', ERROR_DELIVERY_NOT_ACCEPTED, 'error');
  }
} 

of course you would need to define ERROR_DELIVERY_NOT_ACCEPTED for the text you want to be displayed

Hi Pierre, this works great thanks and does exactly what I was trying to achieve. So thanks for the pointers.

Just one thing, where do I put this in the languages files?

define('ERROR_DELIVERY_NOT_ACCEPTED', 'Please let us know your delivery instructions e.g. Leave nextdoor. If there are none please tick this box to proceed.');


Many Thanks

You can put it anywhere in your includes/languages/english.php file
