This post should do exactly that

1. I used my previous instructions posted here for adding additional fields to the checkout, calling my new field Extra_Notes.

has confused me already (it has been a long day, in my defence) - are you referring in point 1. to your post of the 6th February 2005 that appears in this topic?

I updated step 1 to include a link to the previous post. I should have done that originally.

Thanks Cheri. I will let you know if I get it working. That post seems simpler than many of the earlier solutions posted. That is why I was getting confused. Too many posts with pathces and different methods. That will confuse someone badly... especially those of us who are easily confused

Hello!

I can't seem to find reg_numbers using version 4.0.18.

Can anyone who installed this help me out?

Thanks!

I never could figure this mod out!

I tried many many times, but still no luck. I can see the text box in admin, but when I type in information for customer, it doesn't update anything to the database. This is the exact steps I took, can someone point out where did it go wrong?

1. include/func.php - add new field (order_comment) to function func_place_order
Find

Code:

#
# This function creates order entry in orders table
#
function func_place_order($payment_method, $order_status, $order_details, $extra = array(), $extras = array()) {

replace with

Code:

#
# This function creates order entry in orders table
#
function func_place_order($payment_method, $order_status, $order_details, $order_comment, $extra = array(), $extras = array()) {

2. include/func.php (same file as above)

Find

Code:

if(!empty($extras)) {

Replace with

Code:

$extras['Order_Comment'] = $order_comment;
if(!empty($extras)) {

This is the part is confuses me a little bit, there are 2 areas that has the code "if(!empty($extras)) {" .... in the description it says the one in the same function func_place_order, but I cant seems to find out which one it is, so I basically add the modificated code to both.

3. payment/payment_cc.php & payment/payment_offline.php

Find

Code:

$order_details = "";

Replace with

Code:

$order_details = ""; 
$order_comment = $Order_Comment;

4. payment/payment_cc.php & payment/payment_offline.php (same file as above)

Find (2 areas in payment_cc.php & 1 area in payment_offline.php)

Code:

$orderids = func_place_order

Add the field ($order_comment) after $order_details. like the example

Code:

$orderids = func_place_order(....................,  $order_details, $order_comment);

5. skin1/customer/main/checkout_notes.tpl

Find

Code:

<TEXTAREA cols="45" rows="6" name="Customer_Notes"></TEXTAREA>

Replace with

Code:

<TEXTAREA cols="45" rows="6" name="Order_Comment"></TEXTAREA>

6. Create new file named it "modifier.sslash.php" save it to Smarty-X.X.X/plugins/

Code:

<?php 
function smarty_modifier_sslash($string) { 
     return stripslashes($string); 
} 
?>

7. skin1/mail/html/order_invoice.tpl

Add anywhere

Code:

{$order.extra.Order_Comment|replace:"\n":"
"|sslash}

8. skin1/main/history_order.tpl

Add anywhere

Code:

<textarea name="Order_Comment" cols="60" rows="5">{$order.extra.Order_Comment|sslash}</textarea>

9. admin/order.php - Make admin able to edit customer's comment

Code:

func_header_location("order.php?orderid=$orderid&mode=status_changed");
}

replace with

Code:

$order_comment = addslashes($Order_Comment); db_query("update $sql_tbl[order_extras] set value='$order_comment' where orderid=$orderid and khash='order_comment'"); 

func_header_location("order.php?orderid=$orderid&mode=status_changed");
}

10. For AOM, skin1/modules/Advanced_Order_Management/preview.tpl

Code:

<textarea name="Order_Comment" cols="60" rows="5" readonly>{$order.extra.Order_Comment}</textarea>

I'm on v4.0.17.

Ok, Actually if you follow the steps I post above cherie's mod should work.

except one condition, and this is also the reason why I thought it wasn't working.

if customer never enter any information for order note to begin with, store owner will not be able to add any information to it. Store owner can only edit the information if customer input any.

Thanks to cherie for the super mod!!

I am running 4.0.17.

what's the latest version of this mod, and does it work with 4.0.17?

cherie · #49 12-14-2006, 09:40 AM

I don't think it changes up to 4.0.19. It's unnecessary in 4.1.

Has anyone gotten this to work with Gift Certificates and also PayPal ?
