Edit Orders v3.0 for ZC 1.3.9 [Support Thread]

[DivaVocals]

I am running Zencart 1.3.9h
Edit orders v1.5.3 & Ty Tracker v2.3a was inbstalled. (edit orders 1.53 did not work)

Thanks for the previous reply. As suggested, I have (installed a non live linux lampserver for the purpose) migrated my website to it to upgrade edit order v1.5.3 to edit orders 3.03.

I followed all the steps in the instructions from step 1 to 5, then step 2 of the upgrade section. (step 6 was skip to do step 2 of upgrade section is because I was not able to access the control panel without deleting the files mentioned in step two of upgrade instructions)

Then, I went back to step 6 of basic instructions to run the "edit_orders_install.sql" in the control panel.
("edit_orders_install.sql" file was dragged and dump in the control panel SQL Query Executor box; "send" was Clicked)

The reply I get is a pink bar on the top of the page that said "Failed".

What do I do to get this working> Please help.

copy the contents of the SQL file into the admin SQL executor in the Admin (Tools > Install SQL Patches) and then click "Send" to run it..

will running the edit_orders_sql query in admin>tools be the same, as running it in "import" in phpmyadmin?

thanks for the reply. it works!

No.. (which is why the readme doesn't tell you to use PHPMyAdmin)

One more question before i attempt to upgrade my live site.

This question has to do with using winmerge. I have never used it before and don't know what i am supposed to do in this step.

In the process for upgrading to Edit Orders 3.0.3, I skipped the process using Winmerge to compare the Required_Core_edits files (namely: compairing orders.php file in my site to the one in the require_core_edits forlder in v3.0.3)

The offline website in my lamp server appears to be working properly after the upgrade.

The only modifications I made to the origial zencart v1.3.9h setup was added:
1. Easy Populate 3.0.3 (this does not change any core files to the v1.3.9h)
2. Ty Tracker 2.3a (this does not overwrite any core files to v1.3.9h)
3. edit orders 1.5.3 (this required some modifications to the core file order.php file)

The question is:

I used Winmerge to compare the order.php file in my current website, with the orders.php file in the "2_Required_Core_Edits"
Winmerge indicates some differences.

So in Winmerge, do I just use the "Merge>Copy to Right" function to create this merged file for upload? (File on the left is current order.php file in my live site. The file on the right is orders.php file in edit orders 3.0.3)

What exactly happens to the file on the left when I do this?
(I did it, and then, compare the original orders.php file in my live website with the resulting merged order.php file. The two files are identical)

Is this the result that I am looking for in the comparison? (are the two files are supposed to be different?) (or, is using the orders.php file in the Require_core_edits to replace the order.php file in my live website the same thing as the merged fiel?)


I am Really lost. Please help.

Sorry but this support thread is not the right place to provide intructions on how to use Winmerge or any other file comparison program.. that said I do not use Winmerge (I prefer Beyond Compare) and couldn't help. I suggest searching on the forum or web for help using Winmerge..

What exactly happens to the file on the left when I do this?

I meant what happens to the file on the RIGHT , not the left.

Zencart v1.3.9h
ty tracker v2.3a
upgraded to edit orders v3.0.3 from V1.5.3

I took a gamble and merged the order.php files with winmerge and it worked.

There's One thing I am still confused.
Currently there are 4 "Action Flags" (round or icon buttons) at the Ty Tracker v2.3a page that are clickable. They are:
1. Add Tracking ID
2. Display Invoice
3. Display Picking Slip
4. Delete order

The Question is:
Is there supposed to be a 5th Action Flag (Button) for Edit Order along with the other 4 mentioned above?

Reason I ask this is because I see The "Edit Order" icon at the top along with the other 4 icons mentioned before. But there is no Action button for edit orders.

Glad you got this all worked out, but as I previously posted:

I have NO IDEA what you mean by "Ty Tracker v2.3a page"

[twi]

I mean the page that comes up in zencart admin when I go: Customer>Add Tracking ID

(The Ty Tracker 2.3a version)

First that is NOT an Edit Orders question.. but to answer your question (and this is covered in the readme) Ty Package Tracker v2.3a is an older version and the files in it were not updated to integrate with Edit Orders..
