what is the directory and file to change a customers product status? For example, When a customer order, you can chace their purchase to "processing" or "delivered". I want to change those to "shipped" and "complete". Cant someone tell me what file to change?

Doing a bit of research, it seems those three names "Pending" "Processing" and "Delivered" are defined in the MySQL database, rather than a .php file.

 

To change it you would have to go into the database, find the orders_status table, and change the 3 names as they are defined in orders_status_name.

 

Backup the database before making any changes!

Actually I have changed the names before in a .php file, I just don?t remember which file... It was a very simple change, just change the name and save... I just wish I could remember were it was.

Why not look in Admin under Localization / Orders Status.

 

You can insert a new status, edit an existing one.

When you go into customer orders to edit the status, just select the status you require.

 

I have been thinking about my statuses, and thank you for "shipped" and "complete".

I will now use the statuses in the following order;

"Awaiting Payment" (optional)

"Processing"

"Shipped"

"Delivered"

"Complete" (ie, when delivered and payment confirmed)

 

Hope this helps,

:blink: i found it.. dang.. i was looking for a file in /admin!

 

it can be done via the script.. by going to

 

yourdomain.com/catalog/admin

or

yourdomain.com/admin

 

or whatever admin may have been renamed to...

 

and Localazation there!

 

feeling a bit sheepish here!

 

THANKS!
