Hello AM, How can I allow the customer to add special notes to the order when placing it?
I know the database and several .aspx and .ascx pages would need to be updated to make this happen can you point me in the right direction on how to get the customer the ability to add notes?
The most logic place would be at the end, just before the order is actually placed/confirmed. For this, you should add the text option(s) to ~/Modules/CheckoutConfirm.ascx. Besides that, you probably want to store the remarks with the order. You can add a function to the OrderManager class for this. Something like SaveOrderComment(int OrderID) and store it in a new database table.
Then, to view the comment, you also want to change the file ~/Administration/Modules/OrderDetails.ascx and get the comment from the database table in there.
Does this feature exist in ver 2.5? I'd like a way for the customer to be able to add notes to the order before placing it. Or even be able to use a credit card to purchase but allow enter a P.O. number for the order, or any special instructions.
