Contributions

I just added all changes in 1 file and changed couple information that was wrong...

very nice contribution!!!

full package...

This file fixes the problem with the order status not showing up in the customer account info

There is an error in the installation instructions when modifying the admin/includes/classes/order.php

After many novice hours trying to find out what was wrong I came across this error in the instructions

This is just a edited txt file with the modification.

All credit goes to Chadduck for this great Contrib.

Item Status - Customer ADDON v 1.0

This is an ADDON to our modification - Individual Item Status contribution

The Individual Item Status contribution is a MUST install for this ADDON to work.

This ADDON will display the assigned individual item status on the customer's order display when they view the order within their account.

IF YOU HAVE INSTALLED THE osC-PrintOrder w/ StoreLogo v2.0 - MS2

It will also show that status information on the printed version from within the customers account.

I want to thank peterbrysse who pointed that there is an error in the install_instructions.txt

It has to do with the sql statements.

This file is the complete modification and contains the CORRECTED install_instructions.txt

Oops - I had forgotten when I created the archive that I had installed and was working with the Virtual Mall mod when I created the original archive. I only included those files.

This file contains both sets of files for MS2 and Virtual Mall.

As an online merchant offering a variety of products from many different manufacturers some individual items are required to be special ordered, others may be out of stock causing a back order state, and an order may be partially shipped. OSCommerce 2.2 Milestone 2 while a great software package doesn't address these possibilities offering only an overall item status that requires comments to be added which could be mis-read, misunderstood, or worse overlooked entirely.

The Individual Item Status modification helps to address this issue by giving the merchant the following capabilities:
a. an indication of current item status,
b. the date that item status was given,
c. a 20 character item comment area,
d. the ability of repeatedly changing item status.

Included in the archive is an overview.pdf which contains screenshots so that you can see how/what the installed mod SHOULD look like.

Sadly I do not have the time to offer support for this modification however, it is my hope that others will discover this modification, improve it, and offer that support. My php coding skills are novice at best and while the modification works with Apache 2, PHP Version 4.3.8, and MySQL 3.23.56 I am sure that others can improve on the basics provided.
