Edit Orders v4.0 Support Thread

[lat9]

I've just submitted v4.3.0 of Edit Orders to the Zen Cart plugins for review. That release contains changes associated with the following GitHub issues:

#50: Correct product.products_ordered calculation (thanks @siliconforks!).
#52: Correct PHP warning when an order-total doesn't include a "TAX_CLASS" setting.
#53: Additional notifiers for address-field insertions.
#54: Invalid value used in "Mock Cart" processing.
#55: Correct PHP "notify" issues.
#56: Correct order-total calculations when order-totals re-compute tax (e.g. group pricing), as reported by @swguy here.
#57: Properly report missing notifiers

I'll post back here once the download is available.

Note on #56: Users must remember to manually press the button.

Actually, it's changed from the prototype I sent you. The processing now has a checkbox field which, if set, causes the order's totals to be reset rather than a separate button. You can configure the default value for that checkbox field in Configuration->Edit Orders.

That was quick! It's now available for download!

Hi

Just updated to latest version. All works great (as expected!).

A wish list item for future versions/updates - not sure how hard it would be to incorporate - our site is UK based and we use 'state' (changed to 'County') as a dropdown which must be selected by a customer for UK Royal Mail shipping to be applied. Is it possible to have the 'state' field as a dropdown on the edit orders page so that we can ensure the correct state/county is selected?

Thanks

Sounds like a good idea; I've created an issue in Edit Orders' GitHub repository so that I don't lose the request!

@lat9 when i have some time, i will take a look at this new release, and compare it to all of the changes i have done over the years.

without even thinking too much about it, i remember order total calculations, tax calculations (especially when using a different tax module) and changing line item quantities have been problematic. the last item caused me a bunch of grief, as the deletion of a record in orders_products and re-creation of a new record in that same table seems like overkill for changing the quantity from 2 to 3. and despite it being overkill, it overlooks the idea that a store owner could have additional fields in that table due to modifications, and that significant data gets lost. i am not sure if this version addresses that issue. but considering i do have clients using this add-on, and with your name on it, i will try and spend a bit of time on it.

if i find any issues that i think are of merit, lmk if you would prefer me to add something onto your github or if you would prefer to discuss them here.

best.

@carlwhat, this version still removes/recreates those orders_products and orders_products_attributes records. There are notifiers now issued by EO when it's preparing to remove and then re-instate those records, though, so an admin-level observer can keep those additional fields intact.

That said, I expect to have that processing changed in the next major release.

If you find any issues, please report them here since I think that this support thread has a wider audience.

FWIW, I've created this GitHub issue to track this request.
