can't do any of those yet - BlindSide is working on a newer release which has order editing capabilities

Creating an order will probably always be done on the front end

Hi guys...Just downloaded/installed SO on my development site, so far poking around, I like it a lot!

Two problems:
* Textarea box on batch_status is ~1w x ~5, looking at the code, it should be called at 50x4
* Status update emails (both cust and admin copies) go fine from SO orders page, do NOT go (and are indicated as such (red checkmark))from batch status update

I have read the enitre thread here and caught many discussions on $notify and made/unmade changes suggested by blindside as they came up. Just got to the end of this lengthy thread, and don't see any perm. fix?

Ideas?

i get the same problem to, im going to look to see if i can fix this, if anyone does before me please can you pm

thanks.

ok i think i have fixed this.

open super_batch_status.php from your admin folder

around line 255 find

<td class="smallText" valign="top"><?php echo HEADING_ADD_COMMENTS; ?></td>
<td class="smallText"><?php echo zen_draw_textarea_field('comments', 'soft', '250', '4'); ?></td>
<td class="smallText" valign="center"><?php

replace with

<td width="10%" class="smallText" valign="top"><?php echo HEADING_ADD_COMMENTS; ?></td>
<td width="40%" class="smallText"><?php echo zen_draw_textarea_field('comments', 'soft', '250', '4'); ?></td>
<td width="40%" class="smallText" valign="center"><?php

at the end of the file find

if ( ($check_status->fields['orders_status'] != $status) || zen_not_null($comments)) {
update_status($oID, $status, $notify, $comments);

if ($notify == 1) email_latest_status($oID);

$messageStack->add_session(SUCCESS_ORDER_UPDATED, 'success');
}
else {
$messageStack->add_session(WARNING_ORDER_NOT_UPDATED, 'warning');
}

replace this with

if ( ($check_status->fields['orders_status'] != $status) || zen_not_null($comments)) {
$customer_notified = '0';
if (isset($_POST['notify']) && ($_POST['notify'] == 'on')) {
$customer_notified = '1';
}

update_status($oID, $status, $customer_notified, $comments);

if ($customer_notified == '1') {
email_latest_status($oID);
$messageStack->add_session(SUCCESS_ORDER_UPDATED, 'success');
}
}

now save this, replace this one with the one on the server and all should be good.

Alright, time for some catch-up...

is there an easy way to uninstall the super orders?

There is no uninstall script, if that's what you mean. Back out the changes described in the Readme, then delete all the tables and files that have a prefix of "super_".

If you know a little SQL, you can also remove the configuration entries by looking at the inserts and searchingf or them in the `configuration` table using phpMyAdmin.

and if I have it installed but still want to use the original order system, will that create any problems?

Nope, not at all.

um yeah just wondering can b create order or edit order or not... any screenshoot?

Well you can currently edit everything about an order except for the products. As others have said, that functionality is coming. Returns and exchanges are complete, I have to finish the reporting (nice tie-in with my Sales Report mod) and the functionality to simply add a new product.

yups but look not so professional actualy ...

What do you mean? Any suggestions on how I can improve the look?

That's a bug in IE7. Aside from obviously avoiding that piece of crap (how do break stuff that you previously had working!?), I'm implementing changes like the ones you described.

* Status update emails (both cust and admin copies) go fine from SO orders page, do NOT go (and are indicated as such (red checkmark))from batch status update

Again, I have a solution, also similar to your own. Will be included in next release, but thanks for posting a fix; been meaning to do that for some time.

I think they are referring to the order creation being done on the catalog side is unprofessional.

Super orders, VAT and Footers?

I have a couple of questions which partly relate to super orders and partly relate to invoice information requirements in the UK.

How do I get a VAT registration number on to my invoice? - I do have super orders installed but reading about FED tax ID (US I am assuming) inputting a reference in the language file turns off the TAX columns - not quite what I want. Having just hit the UK VAT threshold I now need to have tax columns showing and my VAT reg number on the invoice.

I am wondering if there is a way of getting VAT reg. Company No. addresss etc appearing at the bottom of the page as a footer on the invoice - without headed paper or entering these details in the printer settings as this does not get the right look/layout.

If not using super orders invoice then how do I achieve this in the original invoice file?

Thanks for the help in advance.

The fix that NamSingh offered will get the display working for you, but like you said, that won't take care of the missing tax fields. You'll have to do a small file edit for that. Open admin/super_invoice.php and find this line near the very top:

$display_tax = (FED_TAX_ID_NUMBER == '' ? true : false);

Comment that out and add the following line below it:

$display_tax = true;

Now you're good to go.

On a different problem. Anyone had issue with editing a customer?? I upgraded to 1.3.7 zen cart and think maybe this overwites some update function. The customer changes are not sent to be updated.

What problem are you seeing specifically? Explain what you tried to edit, and what happened? The more detail you provide the better.

...line 97 is a bit vague. It ends up being added in the middle of a bit about gift vouchers! I didnt see this edit explained anywhere in the readme file.

Could you offer some clarification please? Great mod though, and nice improvements from the previous version!

The line numbers likely changed in newer versions since I wrote that text, however the code block you quoted is from an older version. Are you sure you have the latest one from the download section of the site? Double-check, and then read through the readme, as this installation step is described there as well.

Is there a list anywhere of which features you are currently working on?

For my own needs adding items to an order would be good. I can split an order by product quantity rather than just product but adding to the order is proving to be a pain.

Thanks
