Order emails

Post by landed »

I have yet to go live (very close) so don't know how the system works with orders. I see the order statuses can be sent through that section with the same name. Some questions arise thank you- (the system seems very good well done!):

a) Does the system auto email the customer when they make an order?
b) From setting up an email in the confirmed status will this get sent automatically?
c) I am missing some variables:order status, amount paid, amount owing
d) If the customer fills out an email but doesn't pay can I email them a link to their unfinished order?
e) In the Shipping section I have a custom field which is date picker, the time doesn't seem to be an option, can we fix this?

Also {b_email} ends up rendering like this -
"This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it."

Yes. Create Order statuses and in Options > Calculation > set Default Order Status (let's say Pending)
Then you customise Order statuses:

d) If the customer fills out an email but doesn't pay can I email them a link to their unfinished order?
Variable for odrer link is {orderlink} or you can see it in Orders > click Order Nr. and under Order link tab you can copy order link.
e) In the Shipping section I have a custom field which is date picker, the time doesn't seem to be an option, can we fix this?
I can confirm that time can't be selected if calendar:datetime form filed is included in checkout form. This is call for Jan :D

Thank you Nidzo. Yes, I remember I have read this thread but as it looks directly forgotten again... ;-)

Kind regards,
