I'm trying to mark a "Processing" order as Complete when I get a certain response back from a third party service. I've got everything set up for this, but the only problem is that orders are staying in the Processing state. I'm generating an invoice (I don't think I need this though, as each item is marked as "invoiced" in the Magento backend) and a shipment like so: $order = Mage::getModel('sales/order')... (etc) $shipment = $order->prepareShipment($quantities); $shipment->register(); $shipment->setOrder($order); $shipment->save(); $invoice = $order->prepareInvoice($quantities); $invoice-

I am currently working on a magento site that is in 2 languages (French and Dutch). The approach I am taking is as follows: Create a folder in the web root (named nl) Import the index.php and .htaccess file to that folder In the index.php I modify the following line: Mage::run('nl'); // to specify the store view i want to load When I check, the categories, CMS content etc are still in the default language. The following code: Mage::app()->getStore()->getName(); returns the fr store's name. What is it that I'm doing wrong? I think a viable solution would be to set the store to run in index.php.

So I have the following files: app/etc/moudles/BM_Sidebar.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <config> <modules> <BM_Sidebar> <active>true</active> <codePool>local</codePool> </BM_Sidebar> </modules> </config> app/code/local/BM/Sidebar/controllers/IndexController.php class BM_Sidebar_IndexController extends Mage_Core_Controller_Front_Action { public function indexAction() { echo "test data"; } } app/code/local/BM/Sidebar

Is there a simple way to add the username of the person who is making the comment in the admin history to the comment thread on the order? -- edit -- Another way of asking this would be how do I add an additional field to the comment history model so that I can override the appropriate models and templates inserting that data into the data structure. Vipul If you want to add the username who is currently logged in and making change in order or commenting on order. you need to add an attribute to magento. Create a Module say Audit app / etc / modules / Namespace_Audit.xml <?xml version="1.0"?>

In Magento 1.4, I am successfully using this code to mark an order as Complete and add a shipping tracking code to it : $order = Mage::getModel('sales/order')->loadByIncrementId($increment_id); if($order->canShip()) { $itemQty = $order->getItemsCollection()->count(); $ship = Mage::getModel('sales/service_order', $order)->prepareShipment($itemQty); $ship = new Mage_Sales_Model_Order_Shipment_Api(); $shipmentId = $ship->create($increment_id); } $shipment_collection = Mage::getResourceModel('sales/order_shipment_collection'); $shipment_collection->addAttributeToFilter('order_id', $order_id);
