How do I change Post Code to Zip Code

[rubygirl]

and how do I move the zip code field BELOW the state field in the customer sign-up and order areas?

 

thanks!

Go to http://www.oscdox.com and download the editing manual.

 

This is an example in the manual.

 

You are taken through the process step by step.

Just downloaded it and am looking - thanks!!!

okay so I downloaded and printed the doc - read the doc and followed the directions step by step - I however do not see anything different. I am dealing with an 11/29 snapshot (or so) and have only added Linda's Quantity contribution version 5.1 - I cannot figure out the problem - has anyone done this successfully and if so how?

 

Thanks!

:arrow: I had the same task on my hands, a client was like "What's Post Code?", I agreed, who says that anyway? This thing come from Canada eh? Neways you'll find the precious bit of code located here:

 

/catalog/includes/languages/english.php

 

...round about line 204 will be this:

 

define('ENTRY_POST_CODE', 'Post Code:');

 

...change it to this:

 

define('ENTRY_POST_CODE', 'Zip Code:');

 

:wink:

Great - got the name changed to Zip instead of Post but now how do I move it below the state field? I would like it to read:

 

City

State

Zip

 

 

NOT

 

Zip

City

State

 

 

I have read the manual and changed the code but still no difference - anyone have this code editted correctly to have this result???

 

Thanks!

 

 

PS - running snapshot 11/29 with Quality Contrib from Linda version 5.1.

 

Thanks!

To change the order how you want, open catalog/includes/modules/account_detail.php and move

 

          <tr>

           <td class="main"> <?php echo ENTRY_POST_CODE; ?></td>

           <td class="main"> 

<?php

 if ($is_read_only) {

   echo $account['entry_postcode'];

 } elseif ($error) {

   if ($entry_post_code_error) {

     echo tep_draw_input_field('postcode') . ' ' . ENTRY_POST_CODE_ERROR;

   } else {

     echo $postcode . tep_draw_hidden_field('postcode');

   }

 } else {

   echo tep_draw_input_field('postcode', $account['entry_postcode']) . ' ' . ENTRY_POST_CODE_TEXT;

 }

?></td>

         </tr>

 

after:

<?php

 if (ACCOUNT_STATE == 'true') {

?>

         <tr>

           <td class="main"> <?php echo ENTRY_STATE; ?></td>

           <td class="main"> 

<?php

   $state = tep_get_zone_name($country, $zone_id, $state);

   if ($is_read_only) {

     echo tep_get_zone_name($account['entry_country_id'], $account['entry_zone_id'], $account['entry_state']);

   } elseif ($error) {

     if ($entry_state_error) {

       if ($entry_state_has_zones) {

         $zones_array = array();

         $zones_query = tep_db_query("select zone_name from " . TABLE_ZONES . " where zone_country_id = '" . tep_db_input($country) . "' order by zone_name");

         while ($zones_values = tep_db_fetch_array($zones_query)) {

           $zones_array[] = array('id' => $zones_values['zone_name'], 'text' => $zones_values['zone_name']);

         }

         echo tep_draw_pull_down_menu('state', $zones_array) . ' ' . ENTRY_STATE_ERROR;

       } else {

         echo tep_draw_input_field('state') . ' ' . ENTRY_STATE_ERROR;

       }

     } else {

       echo $state . tep_draw_hidden_field('zone_id') . tep_draw_hidden_field('state');

     }

   } else {

     echo tep_draw_input_field('state', tep_get_zone_name($account['entry_country_id'], $account['entry_zone_id'], $account['entry_state'])) . ' ' . ENTRY_STATE_TEXT;

   }

?></td>

         </tr>

<?php

 }

?>

Thank you!!!!

the length of the zip code requires 6 digets,.. where I come from we only need five to ten. Is there a way to lower the requirement from 6 to 5?

[greree]

The default setting for Zip Code is 4 digits. At least it is in the latest snapshot.

[Joy-Bay]

Mine is set to 6:( I can't install the new snapshot with out the Host Admins running the wizard for me. Is there a way to edit something to fix that?

[Guest]

You don't have to change snapshots to change any of those values.

 

Go into your Admin Control panel and click on "Configuration". Then click on "Minimum Values" and set it how you want. When you are done click on "Maximum Values" and set those.

Oh wow,.. :oops: I was even looking in there,... I feel like a dork now:(

 

Thanks for the tip:)
