so, it's not currently possible to pass customer-entered notes to their confirmation e-mail for versions past 3.5.6?

this would seem to result in lots of follow-up phone calls by customers to make sure we received their special requests.


anyone having luck with this?

Hello Group

I think you can pay X to do it. What is really needed is a seperate section for notes that the people at sales can see.

Hi, I'm using ver 4 and it seems not to work for me.
I think that my problem is in the file [x-cart root dir]/skin1/main/history_order.tpl because it's little different and I'm not sure how to make this:

{if $usertype eq "A"}



{$lng.lbl_order_details}:

<textarea name=details cols=100 rows=15>{$order.details}</textarea>
{/if}
{if $usertype ne "C"}



{$lng.lbl_order_notes}:

<textarea name=notes cols=100 rows=8>{$order.notes}</textarea>
{/if}

Hello, this looks great. Im having a little trouble with vers 4.06
The functions is slightly diff. I get errors on add of oder using payments of PO. I looked at payments_offline.php
as you can see the function has $extra

function func_place_order($payment_method, $order_status, $order_details, $extra = array(), $extras = array()) {

where or how can i add teh $order_note var to the function string to prevent errors.
Thanks this looks like a great solution

I'm running 4.0.6 PRO, will this code modification work? Has anyone tried with 4.0.x versions? Thanks in advance.

I solved this for Us using 4.0.6
One step in /include/func.php

1)between flag and details add notes , position does matter

payment_method, flag, notes, details, 

2)at the bottom, add

 '".addslashes($order_details)."'  

just before '".addslashes(text_crypt($order_details))."',
Step 2) will add details to notes before it gets encryped. This will populate notes regardles of payment type.
It seems to work for us.

cut-and-past this code below in place of orig. code
#
# Insert into orders
#
			db_query("INSERT INTO $sql_tbl[orders] (login, membership, total, giftcert_discount, giftcert_ids, subtotal, shipping_cost, shippingid, tax, taxes_applied, discount, coupon, coupon_discount, date, status, payment_method, flag, notes, details, title, firstname, lastname, company, b_title, b_firstname, b_lastname, b_address, b_city, b_county, b_state, b_country, b_zipcode, s_title, s_firstname, s_lastname, s_address, s_city, s_county, s_state, s_country, s_zipcode, phone, fax, email, url, clickid, extra) VALUES ('".addslashes($userinfo["login"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["membership"])."', '$current_order[total_cost]', '$giftcert_discount', '".@$giftcert_str."', '$current_order[subtotal]','$current_order[shipping_cost]', '$cart[shippingid]', '$current_order[tax_cost]', '$taxes_applied', '$current_order[discount]', '".addslashes(@$current_order["coupon"])."', '$current_order[coupon_discount]', '".time()."', '$order_status', '".addslashes($payment_method)."', 'N', '".addslashes($order_details)."', '".addslashes(text_crypt($order_details))."', '".addslashes($userinfo["title"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["firstname"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["lastname"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["company"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["b_title"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["b_firstname"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["b_lastname"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["b_address"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["b_city"])."', '".addslashes(@$userinfo["b_county"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["b_state"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["b_country"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["b_zipcode"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["s_title"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["s_firstname"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["s_lastname"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["s_address"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["s_city"])."', '".addslashes(@$userinfo["s_county"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["s_state"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["s_country"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["s_zipcode"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["phone"])."', '".addslashes($userinfo["fax"])."', '$userinfo[email]', '".addslashes($userinfo["url"])."', '$partner_clickid', '".addslashes(serialize($_extra))."')");

Hello Great One

I just tried your code in version 4.08 it worked on a phone order. I have to setup an account before I try the CC version but it sure would be nice if it worked.

I keep on telling Xcart the person that had the logic of hiding notes to the orders should be sent to Siberia. They said Siberia is pretty nice now. Thre is no such thing as the Russian front.

Loon,


It wasn't an overly difficult mod, but your efforts have surely saved us a lot of poking around. Just a note to others, if you use Paypal like I do you will have to edit the payment_paypal.php in a similar fashion as payment_cc.php. I use Crystal Reports to generate a really nice invoice, and I even made a special field at the top of the invoice say "SEE SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS" since they are present at the bottom, and when folded over are hard to see. Excellent mod guys! Thanks.
