GOB Package Trackers module - Support Thread

[gob33]

This module adds the ability for you and your customers to track packages from different carriers.

You can add, change, delete or turn off package trackers from the Admin.
You may have unlimited different carriers.
Customers track their orders from their “My Account” page.
A separate sidebox shows the customers past orders (optional).
Module does not overwrite any files, just needs to manualy modify a few files in ZC source code.

Predefined carriers are “La Poste, Chronopost, FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL”.

From the french users group. Hope you will find it usefull.
You can also find me on the French Forum if needed.
*** You could download this module as soon it will be approved ***

Overall, it is an improvement of "ty_tracker_package", but need a complete overhaul of the code:

"ty_package_tracker" is limited to 5 trackers. If I remember correctly, a user needed to have more than 5. Now, there is no limit, the benefits are obvious.

The trackers are stored in their own table TABLE_TRACKERS and not in TABLE_CONFIGURATION where it was not their place. This permits to better manage them, do not touch at TABLE_CONFIGURATION and easy installation without conflicts for users.

You can now enter multiple parcels per carrier, before had to save 1 line for each package.

The Sidebox is also present (option).

"ty_package_tracker" uses a modified copy of a php page for Super Orders v1.3. Since, Frank Koehl has changed in Super Orders version 2.0rev47.
This module provides compatibility with Super Orders v2.0 because it proposes only to insert pieces of code in Super Orders v2.0 preserving its functionality. It therefore leaves the possibility of using future versions of Super Orders.

Hi

Does this mod support bulk import? say we have 50 orders and each has its own tracking number, can we import them rather than doing one by one.

thanks!

No, the module itself does not import a list of packages. I'd have to define an import format for this (CSV) and on the other side it is possible to export in the same format. I had planned to interface it with French Post, but Im currently programming otherthing. I keep this idea in reserve.

That will be very useful!

I may be an idiot, but I have installed this MOD and re-traced all my steps and still don't see the Package tracker in my Admin>Localization... any ideas?

Thanks,
