Keeping all cart and address data after checkout? was created by Christoph

Hi!

May be it is interesting also for others starting their Eshop.

In my last shop software I was able to do the following and it was very helpful:

It would be nice to keep all the data (cart, address etc.) after submit an order so that one doesn't have to enter the data again and again while testing for example the shop e-mail generation, label and invoice generating etc.

Where in the code can I find the place where to disable the cleaning?

Best regards,
Christoph

Hello Christoph,

After customers checking out, all of cart data need to clean. I think that is the correct logic.

EShop does not support the feature to keep all of cart data after checking out now.

Oh yes, I know :-)

Of course I don't want it as a feature in the backend.

I only want to have small instructions how to reach this for testing, so:

Where in your code is the cart cleared, where the address?
What functions have to be modified?

A few tipps where I have to search for would be perfect :-)

Best regards,
Christoph

I reply to myself ...

I think I found the place where to disable cleaning of all data.

In /components/com_eshop/view/checkout/html.php you will find in line 272 (Eshop version 5.1.1):

Code:

            // Clear cart and session 
            $cart->clear(); 
            $session->clear('shipping_method'); 
            $session->clear('shipping_methods'); 
            $session->clear('payment_method'); 
            $session->clear('guest'); 
            $session->clear('customer'); 
            $session->clear('comment'); 
            $session->clear('order_id'); 
            $session->clear('coupon_code'); 
            $session->clear('voucher_code');

One can disable this with

Code:

if (0) {
            // Clear cart and session 
            $cart->clear(); 
            $session->clear('shipping_method'); 
            $session->clear('shipping_methods'); 
            $session->clear('payment_method'); 
            $session->clear('guest'); 
            $session->clear('customer'); 
            $session->clear('comment'); 
            $session->clear('order_id'); 
            $session->clear('coupon_code'); 
            $session->clear('voucher_code');
}

As I can see then the cart remains full after ordering and all the address data etc. are still there.
That's a good help for testing confirmation E-Mails etc.

Giang, only to be sure: Is that all I have to do or do I have to disable something else?

Best regards,
Christoph
