Authorize Only Help in Authorize.net

[lisalovlee33]

Hi,

By some divine miracle, I managed to get my Authorize.net working. Buying something online will reflect in Authorize.net after a successful purchase. I am trying to make some changes but don't want to touch anything unless I'm certain.

 

I want to change the value passed to Authorize.net as Authorize ONLY and not the default Authorize/Capture.

 

That means in my Unsettled Account in my Authorize.net account, I would see transactions with the status Authorized/Pending Capture. (right now the status is Captured/pending settlement because it's doing a Authorize/Capture).

 

I want to have the flexibility of capturing the transaction only when shipment has taken place.

 

I have looked here and found 2 solutions. I'm uneasy as to which one to use. Can someone please help me decide which one to use? (I'm on MS2).

 

Solution 1:

/includes/modules/authorizenet_direct.php

 

change

x_Type => 'AUTH_CAPTURE',

to

x_Type => 'AUTH_ONLY',

 

Solution 2:

/includes/modules/payment/authorizenet.php

Add

tep_draw_hidden_field('x_Type', 'AUTH_ONLY') .

right after

$process_button_string = tep_draw_hidden_field('x_Login', MODULE_PAYMENT_AUTHORIZENET_LOGIN) .

 

(and if either of these solution does not work, and I change the file back to what it was originally, the Authorize/Capture should still work right?)

 

My other question is changing the

/includes/language/english/modules/payment/authorizenet.php

 

I want to change the

define('MODULE_PAYMENT_AUTHORIZENET_TEXT_TITLE', 'Authorize.net');

to

define('MODULE_PAYMENT_AUTHORIZENET_TEXT_TITLE', 'Visa and MasterCard');

 

I'm worried that "Authorize.net" may be some value passed over to the actual Authorize.net processor and perform some sort of check. And messing with it will screw things up. Will it?

 

Thanks a lot!!!

That's what I heard. But I don't really want to make any major changes at this point if there's an easier solution. Any ideas guys?
