osCMax Development Update : Order Editor, Manual Order Maker

Code Updates

Today the Order Editor and Manual Order Maker in the osCMax admin panel were fully updated in the RC4 development branch. This code can be obtained from the SVN repository .

Ok, thats a GREAT UPDATE....

Now how do I get the changed files?
I can view the changes, but where do i actually dload the changed file at?

The google code thing is pretty slick too

To get the package, you need to use a SVN client to check-out the code from the repository.

I like Tortoise-SVN on windows, but there are many to choose from.

Once you get an SVN client installed, you need to do an anonymous checkout from the repository. The syntax is:

svn checkout http://oscmax2.googlecode.com/svn/michael_s/rc4/trunk oscmax2-read-only

Nice change however got an 1054 - Unknown column 'shipping_module' in 'field list' from the change on catalog checkout process. You may want to incorporate ajax order editor as well which saves a huge amount of time looking through the database when updating large orders and it can be done from the details page.

You would manually have to apply any database changes if you are updating an existing store, as you cannot get them from the SVN repo. RC4 is development code, and you should not be mixing it with RC3 yet, as it is not entirely stable (not that you are, just putting it out there).

Are you doing a clean RC4 install from svn? If so, let me know and I will see if I can get the osCMax.sql file in the repository cleaned up.

[michael_s]

I just committed the updated installer batch file (osCMax.sql) to the repostiory. It should have all the database changes required to run the new features in RC4.

Have not done a clean RC4 install yet but plan to so I can test and convert my site and its modifications to it when ready. I jus wanted to check out the order editor changes on a test site (RC3 ) since it was a quick and easy install. It should be a simple field to add to the DB I also wanted to see if it conflicted with ajax order editor which I think completes the editing process for those who receive larger orders and it does conflict slightly creating duplicate entrys when using order editor which should be simple to find (though sometimes not) I hope to start on RC4 Next week as this week has been busy.
