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?

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. :no:

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?

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

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?

HI

Tried the contribution and it worked really well. This was only after I removed mootools from the JS directory which was being used by slimbox. Now slimbox does not work!!

Is there a way to get around this? Since I would like to use slimbox as well

Any help will be much appreciated

When a customer does not enter a Desired Delivery Date, "November 30, 1999" always prints on the invoices. I read the entire thread, and it appeared that the solution was to reinstall the module, which I did. The result: still getting a default of November 30 :(

When I ran the sql patch to start the install it gave an error saying that the table already existed. If this is the case, how do I remove it and reinstall? And if I do that, won't I lose every prior shipping date? Is there a way to just make the date not print if it is less than today?

Thank you for your help.
Mike

Zen version 1.3.8a (we'll upgrade after the holidays)
On a Linux server in a secure location, somewhere in the swamps of Florida, I think. They won't tell me.

NINIJJ,

I just went to your site as per the link in the private message, and it seems you have a PHP error when anything is added to the shopping cart. I only get a white screen, so currently i cannot look at the code on your checkout pages.

Let's keep the convo on the forum pages here so that other users can benefit from the process of fixing your checkout. :smile:

**And a note to everyone else: ****

There is a LOT happening on the real right life front, but I'm going to do my best to come full circle and help you guys out. I know how frustrating this stuff can be. Unfortunately it's time consuming and brings in no dough to help me live.** Cue next paragraph...

I wound up spending a lot of time for the past year-ish completely focused on Magento to bring in some dough and make ends meet. Soon after, my attention to ZC seriously waned after it became clear that the ZC team was having (and still is having) big delays (on the order of years) with the release of the next major version. http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=116019&page=148 (i believe you need to be logged in to view this 148 page thread that was frozen in February 2010 regarding ZC 2.0. Note that it was created in Dec. 2008) However, as I'm sure you've noticed, they have recently started pumping out lots of bugfix updates and it seems things are starting to pick up steam again. (Exciting news.)

As you've already discovered, this is a simple case of javascript libraries conflicting with one another. I'm guessing you're only using slimbox elsewhere on your site (product pages, catalog, etc..) but not on the checkout... so to point you in the right direction, what you could try is locating the code for where mootools is being inserted into your header, and put an IF statement around it. So, essentially something like, "IF the page is NOT a checkout page, load mootools"

I don't know if this will help but after a problem in Order Delivery date, I knew there were a conflit in Javascript

As I use a Jquery Tempklate and Lightbox 1.5 I decide to start from scratch

I install the order delivery date => ok
I install lightbox 1.5 => ok

Now when I install my Jquery Order delivery still work but not lighbox
SO I need investigation on this

Thanks

Please read my response just before your post (#236) regarding conflicting JS libraries and hopefully that will point you in the right direction.

Hello
I'm not sure to understand what you mean by my post #236
Please explain

Now the delivery date is installed and after personnalization I'm only getting 31/11/1999 00:00:00 as input in the field
I know this was already discuss but looking in the forum is not easy

So my remain problems are
1/ the JScript issue
2/ The 30/11/1999 input
3/ I would like to implement
a time field after date (I tried with the time field I see on the forum) it was working but nothing in the DB (maybe because I didn't add the right field)
add the field value in Order confirmation and emails
if nothing is entered defalut date should be the tomorrow (except if weekend)

Thanks for you help
