Store pickup with cash only?

[deivid]

I just added Store Pickup as a new delivery method but how the heck do I make it say "cash ony" when they pick up?

My Moneyorder payment module is already in use as something else so I can't use that to make it happen.

I am puzzled.

You can "clone" moneyorder module. It's quite simple...

In so doing you can create a module that behaves in the same way as moneyorder, but is called something different.

Let's say you want to call it "cashpayment"...

Here's the opening lines of moneyorder.php in /includes/modules/payment/moneyorder.php

<?php
/**
 * @package money order payment module
 * @copyright Copyright 2003-2006 Zen Cart Development Team
 * @copyright Portions Copyright 2003 osCommerce
 * @license http://www.zen-cart.com/license/2_0.txt GNU Public License V2.0
 * @version $Id: moneyorder.php 4960 2006-11-20 01:46:46Z drbyte $
 */

  class moneyorder {
    var $code, $title, $description, $enabled;

// class constructor
    function moneyorder() {
      global $order;

      $this->code = 'moneyorder';
      $this->title = MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_TEXT_TITLE;
      if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG === true && (MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_PAYTO == 'the Store Owner/Website Name' || MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_PAYTO == '')) $this->title .= '<span class="alert"> (not configured - needs pay-to)</span>';
      $this->description = MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_TEXT_DESCRIPTION;
      $this->sort_order = MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_SORT_ORDER;
      $this->enabled = ((MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);

      if ((int)MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_ORDER_STATUS_ID > 0) {
        $this->order_status = MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_ORDER_STATUS_ID;
      }

      if (is_object($order)) $this->update_status();
    
      $this->email_footer = MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_TEXT_EMAIL_FOOTER;
    }

All you need to do is find every instance of:

moneyorder

and

MONEYORDER

and change them to

cashpayments

and

CASHPAYMENTS

(VERY IMPORTANT to keep the existing lowercase and UPPERCASE)

So it will look like this

<?php
/**
 * @package cashpayments payment module
 * @copyright Copyright 2003-2006 Zen Cart Development Team
 * @copyright Portions Copyright 2003 osCommerce
 * @license http://www.zen-cart.com/license/2_0.txt GNU Public License V2.0
 * @version $Id: cashpayments.php 4960 2006-11-20 01:46:46Z drbyte $
 */

  class cashpayments {
    var $code, $title, $description, $enabled;

// class constructor
    function cashpayments() {
      global $order;

      $this->code = 'cashpayments';
      $this->title = MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_TEXT_TITLE;
      if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG === true && (MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_PAYTO == 'the Store Owner/Website Name' || MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_PAYTO == '')) $this->title .= '<span class="alert"> (not configured - needs pay-to)</span>';
      $this->description = MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_TEXT_DESCRIPTION;
      $this->sort_order = MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_SORT_ORDER;
      $this->enabled = ((MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_STATUS == 'True') ? true : false);

      if ((int)MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_ORDER_STATUS_ID > 0) {
        $this->order_status = MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_ORDER_STATUS_ID;
      }

      if (is_object($order)) $this->update_status();
    
      $this->email_footer = MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_TEXT_EMAIL_FOOTER;
    }

Then you save it as cashpayments.php in the same folder as moneyorder.php

---------------------------------

Next, you are going to have to create a clone of the associated LANGUAGE file

includes/languages/english/modules/payment/moneyorder.php

and while it's ALSO called "moneyorder.php", it's very different from the file in the modules directory.

But you do the same thing:

<?php

//

  define('MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_TEXT_TITLE', 'Check/Money Order');
  define('MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_TEXT_DESCRIPTION', 'Please make your check or money order payable to:<br />' . MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_PAYTO . '<br /><br />Mail your payment to:<br />' . nl2br(STORE_NAME_ADDRESS) . '<br /><br />' . 'Your order will not ship until we receive payment.');
  define('MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_TEXT_EMAIL_FOOTER', "Please make your check or money order payable to:" . "\n\n" . MODULE_PAYMENT_CASHPAYMENTS_PAYTO . "\n\nMail your payment to:\n" . STORE_NAME_ADDRESS . "\n\n" . 'Your order will not ship until we receive payment.');
?>

Again, save as cashpayments.php in the same folder as the moneyorder.php languages file.

Naturally, in this example above I have NOT changed the define text. You change it according to your needs.

---------------------------------------------------

Finally, you may consider adding some extra explanations to some of the defines in:-

includes/languages/english/checkout_payment.php

...particularly this one:-

define('TEXT_SELECT_PAYMENT_METHOD', 'Please select a payment method for this order.'); 

For this file (if you choose to edit it) you should save the edited version to

includes/languages/english/your_template/checkout_payment.php

----------------------------------------

FTP all files to their respective folders on your server, then, in your Admin Panel, under MODULES>>>PAYMENT...

You will now see a module called cashpayments. Install it and away you go.

NOTE: I take no responsibility for this if you mess things up. If you follow the instructions, then it will work. Make sure to send the correct file to the correct folder!

Use a good plain text editor to edit the files.

Good luck!

Aha! Will do! Big thanks!
