Order Delivery Date Support Thread

Based on the line numbers you're citing it sounds like you used the 138 versions of the files on a 139 cart - possible?

[delia]

well that was interesting. Goes to show anything's possible when in a hurry. It's a hacked cart I'm pulling over to new hosting and upgrading at the same time. Old files and mods done by someone who should have kept his fingers off of zen cart completely.

So now to figure out why in the that tax line is showing like it is.

Thanks for being like me and spending inordinate amounts of time on the forum. You saved my bacon with that one, Scott.

Sorry to be such a dill but I'm new too Zen cart. Though not new to this sort of thing at all. The sql query was no problem at all.

I have read your readme file and the instruction "upload to your install" is not too clear. Where in my install? I'm sure experienced users will know exactly where these things go, I don't. I've search high and low in FAQs and can't find any guidelines to installing addons.

Hope you can help with this very simple question.

Cheers

ftp to your web host. Your install directory will be where the "includes" and "email" and hopefully renamed "admin" directories reside. This may be under /public_html or it may be at the top level where your ftp client winds up going to.

Thanks, I should have got that sussed for myself.

Secondly are there any configurables in the admin control panel or do I need to make any changes in the files?

Greetings,

This module works great so thanks for that. I have something I'd like to fix on it and asking if anyone knows what i should do.

I've modified the code tpl_checkout_shipping_default.php according to some code provided earlier in this thread to revert it from using the popup calendar to the dropdown box showing month/day/year. No Problem there, it prints the correct date to customer and also to admin.

The thing I'd like to fix is:

The dropdown box has a default of todays date. If a person doesn't pick a date then they get the default of todays date. Obviously we cannot ship the product they ordered today so they receive it today. But I cannot have it default to tomorrow or another day ahead of time as that too would be erroneous for our type of business. So I would like the default of the dropdown box to be blank somehow or preferably to have wording such as: No Date Selected.

One other thing. When the customer looks in their account and looks at their order, desired delivery date doesn't appear. Anyway to make it show up in the order stored in their account.

I read several posts, but didn't have the patience to read 23 pages of them.

Does this module allow admin to filter out certain days of the week? Can you turn off individual days? (For a florist that gets overbooked or needs to turn off certain holidays.)

Is it possible to have different date filters depending on what shipping module is selected?

[delia]

The answer is yes. I happen to be using this on a wholesale florist site now.

[TecBrat]

I think I'll download it and give it a try then.

THX!

I am using this module but rather than the java calendar am using as the dropdown box for order delivery date. The drop down shows the default of todays date. I'd like to have todays date removed and instead replaced with "Select delivery date". How can I do this?
