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

Dustie:

Hey Diva :) You know what they say no news is good news. :laugh:
It is a good thing :laugh:
. This mod is really one of the most important ones on my site, and it functions perfectly (despite our installing hickups, but your support was great,....and it WORKS!)

OUch......didn't realise it didn't calculate the postage. Any reason why this great mod doesn't do that as well??

Btw....is this mentioned somewhere in the manual? (*Not that people read them *LOL )Well we certainly had a rocky start, but FINALLY got you going.. :clap: So yeah.. No news is certainly GOOD news..:laugh:

Long story short it just doesn't.. Dunno why the original authors chose not to include this feature.. I can speculate why, and given the complexity required to add it it makes sense..

No this is not mentioned explicitly in the manually, but IMHO it's kinda obvious when you use it that this since the shipping field is one of the editable fields.

thank you for your reply. :smile:

Don't see why it should be obvious, because even the new added products are editable fields. The shipping would need to be editable, cause I for instance also give freeshipping, which I edit manually.....plenty of reason to edit it :) . But now I know and can adjust shipping accordingly :smile:

Having learned the value of reading the forum, especially before implementing a mod, I'm very happy to report that I installed Edit Orders mod without any issues and have edited an order successfully!

Thank you to everyone for sharing their experiences and solutions!

:clap:

• Improved Integration with Reward Points module

Hi

I've been using the latest Reward Points mod on my 1.3.9h cart. The mod worked fine until I installed Edit Orders but now it doesn't function properly and rewards points are no longer addded or updated.

Do you have a workaround for this problem please?

The "Improved Integration with Reward Points module" made to this mod was a small fix so that the Rewards Points were calculated correctly when orders are edited.. (if memory serves there was a date field that was missing when orders were edited/updated) This change was included in the last update (as per the changelog in the readme) Otherwise THAT'S IT!!! I know NOTHING else about the Rewards Points mod..

If the Rewards Points mod is not working, it's unlikely the cause is THIS module alone. (unless you don't have the version with the "fix" I refer to)

I can't help you with Reward Points issues here.. It's NOT related to Edit Orders support.. My suggestion is to start with the Rewards Points module support thread. This is where the experts on the Rewards Points mod would be hanging. You will however need to post WAY more details than you've posted here. Because I have no idea what you mean by "now it doesn't function properly and rewards points are no longer addded or updated", and I suspect that the folks there will need more detail that this..

and let me be CRYSTAL clear..

I am ONLY referring to this Reward Points module:
**Reward Point Full Suite by Andrew Moore
**
NOT
**
Store Credits and Rewards Points Module by Numinix
(v3.05 available in the downloads, v3.12 available on the Numinix site)
**

I guess there are a couple of these kinds of reward points mods.. (didn't know that), and I wanted to be clear which reward points module I was referring to..

Okay okay... I GET THE POINT thank you

Sorry!:blush: Wish I could be more help..

This mod used to allow for editing or deletion of existing comments didn't it? How can I add that function back in? My client needs to be able to edit comments as her customers use the comments box for gift messages and sometimes make typos. Thanks!

Thank you, I just realized that, oops :)

Hi, Can I change an order before it is processed by the credit card? Will it then charge the card the updated amount? I would like to be able to modify the order after the order has been placed, but before the card is charged. My customers often have special installation or delivery needs that I need to add to the order.

Asked an answered in this suppor tthread a few times.. Short answer is NO, Edit Orders doesn't do that..

I hope I'm not stating the obvious here, but if these special needs are options that others may want too (or your customer may want again in the future), you may just consider making them attributes, which would also allow you to adjust the price (or not) as required.

Cheepnis,

Thanks for the comment. We are a retail nursery that sells plants online. We give the customer the option of having us install the plants as well when they are delivered. Many of the clients have special installation needs. When they request installation, I give them a call and discuss the situation. I would like to be able to add additional charges for the extra work (e.g., sod removal, dead plant removal, etc.). These activities are so variable that it would be difficult to convert them to attributes. I'm thinking it may be best to just charge their card (with their permission) for "additional labor" based on the amount of hours we estimate the extra work to be. This is my first shopping cart, so I'm not real sure how to do this yet. I'm thinking just add "additional labor" as an item in the cart. 1 quantity would be for 1 hour and so on. I'm sure there is a better way. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Not to be a nag or anything, but I suggest taking any further discussion of any solution to this to a new thread as it is off topic for Edit Orders support.. Suggest searching the forum for "manual order" as it sounds like what lndlyb4 really requires is a manual order process for creating supplemental orders which would allow him/her to collect additional costs.

DivaVocals,

Thank you for the add-on and the suggestion.

ty package tracker 311 installed

question: I know I have to upload the admin>orders.php and that this will overwrite the orders.php that was installed for ty package tracker - do i just let the edit-orders version of orders.php overwrite the ty-package version of admin>orders.php ?

or should i merge the two files?

i noticed lots of ty-package stuff in the current orders.php that is not in the native edit-orders orders.php so it seems that the edit-orders orders.php file would need to be merged

reason i ask is that the instructions in edit-orders doesn't say either way but that you must first have ty-package installed so that the edit-orders orders.php will overwrite the existing ty-package orders.php:

Ty Package Tracker
(You MUST have Ty Package Tracker installed to use the Ty Package Tracker integration features)

You will need to follow the following steps to use Edit Orders v3.03 with Ty Package Tracker v3.0.

Install Ty Package Tracker v3.0
Go to Admin > Configuration > Ty Package Tracker. Then simply set the "Ty Package Tracker Module Switch for Edit Orders v3.0 or Super Orders v3.0" to "True" to activate the Ty Package Tracker fields in Edit Orders.

This will enable the Ty Package Tracker fields and make them available in Edit Orders.

NOTE: If you are CURRENTLY running Ty Package Tracker v2.3a, you DON'T have to upgrade to Ty Package Tracker v3.0 to take advantage of the new Edit Orders v3.0 integration..

(though we think you SHOULD update to the new Ty Package Tracker v3.0)

BUT you will need to run the Ty Package Tracker upgrade script to use this feature. This WILL NOT affect any tracking data you already have in the DB.. BUT it will add the necessary admin flag needed to take advantage of the Ty Package Tracker integration option.

Run edit_orders_ty_tracker_upgrade.sql
Go to Configuration > Ty Package Tracker. Set the "Ty Package Tracker Module Switch for Edit Orders v3.0 or Super Orders v3.0" to "True".

This will enable the Ty Package Tracker fields and make them available in Edit Orders.

If you are upgrading Edit Orders v3.0 Rev1 or v3.0 Rev1a to Edit Orders v3.03 you'll need to make some minor changes to use the Ty Package Tracker features. Use the upgrade path below that applies to your store setup.

Edit Orders v3.0 Rev1 or v3.0 Rev1a users who are using Ty Package Tracker v2.3a
You will need to follow the following upgrade steps to use Edit Orders v3.03 with Ty Package Tracker v2.3a.

Run the edit_orders_uninstall.sql
Re-run the edit_orders_install.sql
Run the edit_orders_ty_tracker_upgrade.sql
Replace your current YOUR_ADMIN_FOLDER/includes/functions/extra_functions/common_orders_functions.php with the one from 1_Install_Files. Go to Admin > Configuration > Ty Package Tracker. Then simply set the "Ty Package Tracker Module Switch for Edit Orders v3.0 or Super Orders v3.0" to "True" to activate the Ty Package Tracker fields in Edit Orders.

Edit Orders v3.0 Rev1 or v3.0 Rev1a users who are using Ty Package Tracker v3.0
You will need to follow the following upgrade steps to use Edit Orders v3.03

Run the edit_orders_uninstall.sql
Re-run the edit_orders_install.sql
Replace your current YOUR_ADMIN_FOLDER/includes/functions/extra_functions/common_orders_functions.php with the one from 1_Install_Files. Go to Admin > Configuration > Ty Package Tracker. Then simply set the "Ty Package Tracker Module Switch for Edit Orders v3.0 or Super Orders v3.0" to "True" to activate the Ty Package Tracker fields in Edit Orders.

The general rule when installing mods which have common files is to merge the common files.. this goes for ANY mod not just Edit Orders..
