Attributes sort order for invoice/packing slip

[aeolidia]

The option names have sort orders and the option values are text fields.

Right now they are set like this in the Option Name Manager:

- Main Tag Child Name: 1
- Main Tag Birthdate: 2
- Second Child Name: 3
- Second Child Birthdate: 4

They display in the correct order on the item pages, just not on the invoice through the admin.

Thanks!

Very odd ...

I added 4 text Option names in a random order ... added them to the Product in a random order ...

They maintain their order from Product Info ... Shopping Cart ... Checkout Confirmation ... Email ... Order ... My Account ...

I am numbering in 10s as in 10, 20, 30, 40 etc.

That is the only difference that I can see ...

Checking again with my client's site, it looks like her invoices almost always have the item options in the correct order and she's just seen a few that are out of order. Strange because I can't track down what's different about the "bad" order - I found a good invoice for the exact same item.

I've asked her to gather a few order numbers for me to compare so I can try to find a similarity between them. I'll let you know if I figure this one out!

I've had this happen a few rare times as well - did you figure out why it was happening? I can't even see a pattern - I can't solve it without a pattern.

No, I haven't figured this one out! I can't tell what's different about these few screwy orders.
