Address order

[Draxeiro]

Hi there,

We went live with our oscmax shop a couple of weeks ago (for the curious souls: www.amerelia.nl) and traffic is slowly starting to build up plus orders are coming in. Which is good

Though I did notice something today that I absolutely need to change. But I don't have a clue where.

If I look at the address details the adress order is wrong, it shows the postcode after the city. That should be the other way around!

It basically shows anywhere, address details, invoice, order overview. Which would make sense I guess. Still, it needs to be changed.

Can somebody give me a few pointers where I need to do this?

Many thanks in advance.

Take a look at your create_account.tpl.php file located in templates/fallback/content directory. Find the following code:

              <tr>
                <td class="main"><?php echo ENTRY_POST_CODE; ?></td>
                <td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('postcode') . ' ' . (tep_not_null(ENTRY_POST_CODE_TEXT) ? '<span class="inputRequirement">' . ENTRY_POST_CODE_TEXT . '</span>': ''); ?></td>
              </tr>

You can move this down in the file. I would imagine you would want to place it under the state, around line 145:

              <tr>
                <td class="main"><?php echo ENTRY_STATE; ?></td>
                <td class="main">
<?php
// BOF: MOD - Country-State Selector
        $zones_array = array();
         $zones_query = tep_db_query("select zone_name from " . TABLE_ZONES . " where zone_country_id = " . (int)$country . " order by zone_name");
        while ($zones_values = tep_db_fetch_array($zones_query)) {
          $zones_array[] = array('id' => $zones_values['zone_name'], 'text' => $zones_values['zone_name']);
        }
		if (count($zones_array) > 0) {
          echo tep_draw_pull_down_menu('state', $zones_array);
		} else {
		  echo tep_draw_input_field('state');
		}
// EOF: MOD - Country-State Selector
    if (tep_not_null(ENTRY_STATE_TEXT)) echo ' <span class="inputRequirement">' . ENTRY_STATE_TEXT;
?>
                </td>
              </tr>

You can change post code to ZIP code or whatever you want in your language file, along with anything else you need to change verbiage to.

Hope this helps you out.

Hi Greg,

Thanks a lot for your tips but doesn't that just change the order on which it displays on the create account page while people are filling in the fields of their account?

What I mean is the way it displays after you create an account. When an address is displayed after say you placed an order it is in the following order:
name
street address
city, postcode

For my country (The Netherlands) it needs to be the other way around.

Hope you can help me on that.

Thanks a lot, mate

greg, can you clarify for me?

Or somebody else, is this the way to do it or do I have to change something in the database or on another page?

There is a SETTING in the ADMIN panel for the default Address display....... It is a COUNTRY SETTING!!!!!


-'Locations / Taxes' -'Countries'
then select and click on "EDIT" on your country you want to change the address format for... then modify
'Address Format:'


Or if it is easier to just change the SQL

TABLE address_format
'1', '$firstname $lastname$cr$streets$cr$city, $postcode$cr$statecomma$country', '$city / $country'
'2', '$firstname $lastname$cr$streets$cr$city, $state $postcode$cr$country', '$city, $state / $country'
'3', '$firstname $lastname$cr$streets$cr$city$cr$postcode - $statecomma$country', '$state / $country'
'4', '$firstname $lastname$cr$streets$cr$city ($postcode)$cr$country', '$postcode / $country'
'5', '$firstname $lastname$cr$streets$cr$postcode $city$cr$country', '$city / $country'


Good luck!

JPF, if you were a woman I'd kiss you!

That did the trick for my country, the Netherlands. Obviously I will also take a look at the address formats of other countries where we have customers so I can set the correct format there also.

For the life of me I couldn't find where to change that... turns out it was pretty simple after all. And I had been searching hard in the admin.

Clearly not hard enough

THANKS!
