fast easy checkout

November 14, 2005

And I've found that the cart contents are apparently saved for users when they logout and log back in - BUT.....

the session problem if once you just placed an order - trying to go back and order again - sometimes the cart wont' allow you to put anything in it. If you close your browser and try again - I think usually it's fixed - but that's prettty annoying!

Will keep searching for fix - can't have this going on when store goes live :)

thanks i figured it out i used $SID

as far as the session problem i actually heard that once before but could not reproduce it although it should not be very hard to fix

i really have not done any major changes to the way the checkout is done

I'm sure it's not your checkout that's causing the problem.

I fixed the paypal thing! Super! I also modified the email confirmation a bit as I was getting the weird key after the text - that seemed to serve no purpose -

To fix the paypal email problem of them

not getting a 2nd chance to make a

password, I added this to lines 223-233 of

includes/modules/payment/paypal/classes/osC/Order.class.php

$check_customer = tep_db_fetch_array($check_customer_query);

$new_password = $check_customer['confirmation_key'];
//$crypted_password = tep_encrypt_password($new_password);
$confirmation=$new_password;
if (tep_session_is_registered('confirmation')) tep_session_unregister('confirmation');
if (!tep_session_is_registered('confirmation'))tep_session_register('confirmation');
//   tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " set customers_password = '" . $crypted_password . "' where customers_id = '" . (int)$check_customer['customers_id'] . "'");

$email_order .= EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_PASSWORD . ' ' . tep_href_link('account_password_new.php', 'confirmation_password=' . $new_password.'&customers_id='.$check_customer['customers_id'], 'SSL', true) . "\n\n";
//   $email_order .= EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_PASSWORD_NOLINK. $new_password . "\n";

In account_pasword_new.php

I had to fix the password title not showing up correctly - I added a reference to a language file

require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '/' . FILENAME_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD);

Hi,

Its nice contrib and I have installed it on 2 different websites. During installation I have found there are some lines which should be added in the following file;

Path: /includes/languages/english/create_account.php

From the installation instructions, we add following 2 lines which is fine;

define('LOGINBOX_NEW_CUSTOMER', 'New Customer - Please Fill in Your Details');

define('LOGINBOX_EXISTING_CUSTOMER', 'Existing Customer');

Just below these, we would need to add these additional lines which are not mentioned in installation instructions;

define('LOGINBOX_EMAIL', 'E-mail address');

define('LOGINBOX_PASSWORD', 'Password');

define('LOGINBOX_TEXT_PASSWORD', 'Password Forgotten?');

define('LOGINBOX_FORGOT_PASSWORD', 'Click Here...');

These newly added lines will display proper text when u are at

'catalog/create_account.php' page

I have noticed another thing that while u are at 'catalog/create_account.php', it don't display the defined text for 'LOGINBOX_EXISTING_CUSTOMER' box. When I chked, the file 'catalog/create_account.php' has wrong spellings for 'EXISTING'. You can correct the spelling and it will display the defined text i.e 'Existing Customer'

I hope this will help.

Great contribution! Thank you for all your work!

Would you be so kind as to post the code for the files that have been updated since the last contribution that you use on your web site. It seems to flow quite smoothly and despite my best efforts in following the posts here and mondifying my code accordingly I can't seem to make it perform as it does on http://seelily.com.

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Ok here's a new feature I think would be very handy for customers as well as order processing...

How about some formatting both for credit card entry and exp date? dealing w/ numbers 15 or 16 digits long w/ no space in between is a bit of a nightmare.

I wouldn't mind if the customers enter it all in 1 box - but can we get the database to put a space in between every 4 digits as well as separating the exp date month from year - or code the query in the order manager (I'm actually using osc_active_desktop - to display the CC results in a formatted way?

Currently when someone completes a purchase without an account they are brought to the page account_password_new.php?thx=1. When they sign up for an account at that screen, they are redirected to the shopping cart which is empty instead of seeing a thank you or account login screen.

How do I change this?

November 16, 2005

yes I've had that problem too. I think if the same customer were to click on their invoice email - to fill out a password that way - then they don't have this blank screen problem, but rather get redirected upon selecting a password to a login screen.

I wonder why the difference?

nana · November 16, 2005

you have to change the redirect in the account_password_new.php

this page is used for all three second chance create accounts you can change the redirects to any page you want it didn't bother me but i guess i have to look at its logic
