safoo Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 JABevan, [ just noticed the money order info you mentioned ] What you could do to solve all your problems, is change the title Purchase Without Account to 'Express Checkout' or something. you can mention to the customers that they can checkout without creating an account, but don't put so much emphasis on the 'deletion of customer info', though you still remove their account from the customers table. Change the print invoice module to grab all info from the orders table and require the customer to enter say order ID and zip code, or last name and zip code or something like that to view invoice. Then even PWA customers can view and print invoice. This is just some ideas and I'm not sure the pros cons of doing it this way but it is just what popped into my head. It will take a little work to do this, but I think it should work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzz Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Hi There, I cannot get past where you enter your info in the PWA account it is just a blank page... Can you help me figure out what went wrong...

tlelliott77 Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 panzz Do you have STS installed? If so you need to include your column right in Order_Info_Process.php. Details of this are given earlier on in this thread. If you don't have STS I'm afraid I don;t know what it is. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzz Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Hi Tim, sorry, I think i'm a little newbee..... How can I check if STS installed or not? Thanks & Greets, Panzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlelliott77 Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 panzz STS is the simple template system, a contribution that you can install. If you don't know about it then I assume that you don't have it. If you do then there will be a file called catalog/includes/sts_template.html. If that isn't there you don't have STS. In that case I don't know what your problem is with PWA. That was just a cause of similar problemsthat I'm aware of. The only other thing I can suggest is that you go over the installation instructions very carefully one more time. I'm sure you've done that but just check again.

panzz Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Hi Tim, thanks for the info, so I have the STS installed. Other people have no problem with the PWA, only when I will test the function I got the error with the white/blank page, after I type in the customer details for check out. So is it a OS problem, or a error on my PC MSIE? I checked the function also with Mozilla and had the same error? Hope my english is understandable :D Greets, Panzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinister-Racing Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Has anyone had a problem after the PWA was installed that the pop up of "This page contains both secure and nonsecure items, Do you want to display nonsecure items?" This message never came up prior to installing the PWA contrib. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlelliott77 Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Panzz In that case you need to include the column right in your Order_Info_Process.php. To do this see the 2nd post on page 42 of this thread. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ternet Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 (edited) JABevan, Sorry I haven't been on the forums much lately. The customer information is actually killed in checkout_success.php and not in checkout_process.php. I am confused as to what you are trying to do now? Do you want your PWA customers to be able to print an invoice on checkout success? Or do you want to remove the print button on checkout_success.php, so everyone except pwa customers can print an invoice. I mentioned A cusomter is logged in normally : if(tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) A customer is logged in with PWA: if (tep_session_is_registered('noaccount')) so that you could remove the button for pwa customers. From what I understand, the customer information is deleted once checkout_process.php loads so I'm not sure what other ways there are to allow a PWA customer to print an invoice since their information no longer exists and of course we can't create a table to store just their information since that defeats the whole purpose of PWA. I don't think its a good idea to give access to the orders table as was mentioned in the post you quoted. I think the best option is to not show the print invoice button to pwa customers. Just a thought to PrintOrder contrib with PWA problem would it be secure enough if we examine in the checkout_success.php page if the customer is PWA, if s/he is then crypt the order_id (with the key admin defines) and add for instance 'pwa' to it. order_id=<pwa><crypted oID => order_id=pwa984747 Pass the crypted oID to printorder. Printorder could then examine if Order_id contains 'pwa'. If it contains, it de-crypts the real order_id and shows the printable order to the PWA customer. To add security (so that there is no way to bookmark the page) this is possible to do - lets say - only 20 minutes after the purchace. I know it is not the most secure solution, but would it be secure enough?? Edited June 18, 2004 by Ternet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goanna Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Well, the PWA/Print Orders situation doesnt seem to be solved yet, but has anyone figured out how to get the invoice to show up as soon as the customers click the print order button? What happens on all my sites is that when they click the button, the login page comes up first instead of just shoeing the invoice. It is very annoying.

mijman2 Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 Hi everyone! Thanks so much for the great contrib... I have installed it and everything works, but I decided that it just isn't for me! Can anyone please an unistall method which includes database unistall, and also which files to delete and which files to delete the specific code from?!?! If anyone could do this I would really appreciate it!!! Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 anybody - Safoo wrote the following in response to the PWA/PrintOrder issue: The customer information is actually killed in checkout_success.php and not in checkout_process.php. Is it possible to put a timed delay on this? Like 20 minutes, as Ternet suggested? I'd imagine it could be done. All we're talking about is a session here right? How many others are having this problem? I guess we know of a half-dozen or so right now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 We'd be talking about a change to this code, right: // PWA: Added a check for a Guest checkout and cleared the session - 030411 v0.71 if (tep_session_is_registered('noaccount')) { $order_update = array('purchased_without_account' => '1'); tep_db_perform(TABLE_ORDERS, $order_update, 'update', "orders_id = '".$orders['orders_id']."'"); // tep_db_query("insert into " . TABLE_ORDERS . " (purchased_without_account) values ('1') where orders_id = '" . (int)$orders['orders_id'] . "'"); tep_db_query("delete from " . TABLE_ADDRESS_BOOK . " where customers_id = '" . tep_db_input($customer_id) . "'"); tep_db_query("delete from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " where customers_id = '" . tep_db_input($customer_id) .

Guest Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 Commenting out the last line did work. // tep_session_destroy(); Now I'm doing research on a timed destroy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 (edited) Here's the best info I can find on sessions: http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/session.php It doesn't look like a session_destroy can be timed, if I'm reading things correctlly.

barryhunter Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 A client has been bugging me that the create account is too complicated if the person just wants a simple order, Thanks to everyone working on this contrib! Anyway i dont know if its been mentioned before, but i noticed the login page displayed the 'proceed to checkout without creating acount' button even if they dont have any items yet (which doesnt make sence beucase they cant procede to checkout yet) and the script gave an error) to combat this i make it display the page without the login box, if the basket is in fact empty just change in catalog/login.php <?php if (PWA_ON == 'false') { require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . FILENAME_PWA_ACC_LOGIN); } else { require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . FILENAME_PWA_PWA_LOGIN); } ?> to <?php if (PWA_ON == 'false' || ($cart->count_contents() == 0) ) { require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . FILENAME_PWA_ACC_LOGIN); } else { require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . FILENAME_PWA_PWA_LOGIN); } ?> hope it helps somebody Barry PS. in response to mijman2 post about uninstalling, the best solution would be to simple restore a backup from just before you installed it (you did make one didnt you ;) ), failing that it should be fairly easy to reverse the steps of the uninstall, but you will probably still need backups of the modified files as the install only includes the new code. SQL code to delete entires should be (backup your database first as i havent fully tested this code) ALTER TABLE customers DROP INDEX purchased_without_account; ALTER TABLE customers DROP purchased_without_account; DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_id = 40; DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_group_id = 40; ALTER TABLE orders DROP purchased_without_account; Although in actual fact you should just be able to turn the contrib off using the config section of the admin, and then it would look like it never existed (expect the switch it back on ;-) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mijman2 Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 O ya! I forgot about the turn off switch... The problem with the backup is that If i were to back it up, I would lose other contributes that I have installed along with products :wacko: ... So i will simply turn it off!

tlelliott77 Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 How would PWA work alongside Credit Class/Gift Vouchers/Discount Coupons? Has anyone tried this? Razorjack I have these two installed and they work OK together. I just have a warning in the "Proceed directly to checkout" box in login.php to warn people not to use that option if they're purchasing vouchers. If they did still do this you would just need to email them some vouchers in place of the ones they would have "destroyed" by deleting their account in the PWA process.

Spaceboy Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Question : do you find it normal that when you login as a customer without an account, you have access to "my account" (header bar) where you can change your account information, past orders, change password, etc. For me the client should NOT have access to it. He can only pass an order and that's all. right ? Didier. Quote Published modified Contributions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Here is the code for header.php if you do not want to see the 'logoff' and 'my account' buttons in the header : Change around line 99 : <?php if ((tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) && (!tep_session_is_registered('noaccount'))) // DDB - PWA - 040622 - no display of logoff for PWA customers { ?> <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?> </a> | <?php } ?> <?php if (!tep_session_is_registered('noaccount')) // DDB - PWA - 040622 - no display of account for PWA customers { ?> <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?> </a> | <?php } ?> I also had to change the text in checkout_success.php as it tells the client that he can consult his order. I just added "In case you have created an user account, you can..." Another error is saw is with Order_Info_Process.php where there is a reference to NAVBAR_TITLE_2 that does not exist. I just dropped that line in the code. Nice contrib ! Didier. Quote Published modified Contributions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
