Re: Parcel Tracking for your Customers
HI, no I gave up in the end, and just put some basic links within the text of the customer complete notificaition email. Would have prefered something a bit more fancy though.
Unfortunatly kept having the same problems though. Thanks

Re: Parcel Tracking for your Customers
I implemented Phil's mod on my site in Australia for TNT, Hunter Express and Couriers Please. Great mod Phil, thanks. However, when it came to implementing it for Fastway Couriers there was a hitch The way Fastways construct their query URL is different to most others. Here's an example query URL:
where FA0017457708 is the Tracking Number. The rest of the URL is static. The problem is that I can't get my head around how to create the URL using the form when the Arguments data has both a prefix (-A) and a suffix (,-N1,-AN). I have assumed that the Tracking ID form input field data (the tracking number that the user types in) needs to be massaged prior to the form being submitted so that the prefix and suffix data is added to the tracking number - in this case changing it from FA0017457708 to -AFA0017457708,-N1,AN I'm just wondering if anyone might have the expertise to assist with massaging the tracking number and modifying it as the form is being submitted. Thanks in advance Dean

Re: Parcel Tracking for your Customers
Thanks everyone. I ended up assembling the string using javascript and it works a treat. Because the tracking form I'm using doesn't actually reference {$order.tracking} - it's on the sidebar - I had to assemble the string based on a customer input tracking number. The tracking box I'm using is form based and coded in javascript anyway. I just needed to add a function to do the string handling for me before the form was actually posted, and after the customer had entered their tracking number. I put a function into the java sidebar form app as follows:
Code:
and altered the submit button code for Fastways to call the function as follows: Code:

Re: Parcel Tracking for your Customers
Hi,
This is a really interesting thread. I am trying to come up with something that will allow customers to track their parcels progress using DHL or Interlink in the UK. Maybe it's feasible using an adaptation of the mods found here? One other thing though, how are you giving the tracking information to customers in the first place? I would like to enter it when changing the order status to complete but can't see an option to enter free text that will be shown in the email sent to the customer when 'complete' is triggered. Just wondering how you guys transmit this info'... Thanks. |

Re: Parcel Tracking for your Customers
There is a free mod that allows you to do this when complete is triggered. When I locate it I will post it for you
