Good good...thank you....i'm not alone.....we are on to something...

In the email folder:

your_shop > email

are all the templates that the site sends out.

In your Doc folder are instructions about how emails are used: 4.readme_html_email_templates.html

the order status email should have these fields:

Order Status Updates from Admin
$EMAIL_CUSTOMERS_NAME (extracted from Orders table -- combines first/last names based on what's in DB)
$EMAIL_STORE_NAME
$EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER (Order Number from database)
$EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL (URL to access "My Account History")
$EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED (Order Date)
$EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_UPDATED ("Has been updated to:")
$EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_LABEL ("New Status:")
$EMAIL_TEXT_NEW_STATUS (actual status description and comments)
$EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_PLEASE_REPLY ("Please reply to this address if you have questions")

but the default template only has these:

$EMAIL_SUBJECT
    $EMAIL_MESSAGE_HTML

oh, just saw this...thank you thank you...

there are two places where this code appears......change both or just the one?

oh i get it...one for text email the other for html

No not silly, and you are correct that edit orders does send the email_template_default.

To correct this open admin/edit_orders.php and find the following line of code (around line 187)

              zen_mail($check_status->fields['customers_name'], $check_status->fields['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT, $email, STORE_NAME, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, $html_msg, NULL);

and replace it with this:

              zen_mail($check_status->fields['customers_name'], $check_status->fields['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT, $email, STORE_NAME, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, $html_msg, 'order_status');

Nice catch Clyde!!

Honestly as someone just pointed out, the difference is so subtle I never noticed this.. Wasn't something we were looking for or targeting specifically when we submitted this version..

As you know ALL of this module is based on the Scott's original contribution.. Other than cleaning a few things up and adding a few new behaviors (to support Super Orders the way this mod has always worked with the default orders.php), this is still all the original contributions code..

I'll test myself, and if my time permits, make this minor change and resubmit it..

that must be the code that also has the url problem....

no text link..just the full url after Detail Invoice:

I'm sorry to say that did not fix it. It sent the right email template but the fields are not filled out.


It also did not send the copy of email to that set in the email admin

I just double checked and there is another line of code (around line 765) that should be changed also.

did your order update email look ok?

[DivaVocals]

When we tested Edit Orders we tested it's functionality for those who would be using Super Orders and for those who would NOT be using Super Orders. We recognized that not all shopowners will be using Super Orders (nor are they required to). So we had to test for both types of shop configurations..

Meaning??

We did the kind of testing you are asking about.. We tested Edit Orders, and viewed the results of the order changes made in the Edit Orders mod (order comments, totals, and product updates) in the default orders.php view and in super_orders.php view.

The results of these tests??

the default orders.php results MATCH the super_orders.php results. (As Super Orders is based on the default orders.php, and as the readme indicated Super Orders ADDS to the default features -- versus modifying default features -- so the results came as no surprise)

We had NO ISSUES in any of our testing (and there were three of us testing) with the comments functions in Edit Orders working as expected..

I just double checked and there is another line of code (around line 765) that should be changed also.

I'll look at it this weekend.. But should this be the same change??
