Displaying Order Number on Checkout Success Page

[James Ecker]

Hi, Everyone.

 

I am trying to display the customer's order number on the Order Checkout Success Screen. I found this code on the forums:

 

echo TEXT_YOUR_ORDER_NUMBER . $orders['orders_id'] . '<br><br>';

 

When I put that in the shop/includes/languages/english/checkout_success.php file it goes to displaying only a blank screen.

 

Am I putting this code in the wrong file, or is the code not appropriate?

 

Thanks!

Where did the post say to put it?

That's part of the problem...it really didn't say where to put it, so I assumed it would go on that page, since that is where the text is defined...

The blank page typically means there were fatal errors on the page (often a parse error), but that PHP errors are disabled on the server (as they should be for production systems) so you're not seeing the message. They do, however, get written to the error log. Check your server error logs just after loading the page and let us know what the error message says.
