I have been told by several people my site would look nicer if all the buttons and boxes were radius corners instead of sharp corners. I have tried to go into css files and add radius to buttons, but it does not seem to change any buttons. So my first question is how do I know which css file to change for what? Second question is do I need to do more or just change the css file?

Thanks Deby, I actually do have that plugin but didn't think about using that to get this done. I could create an email called "bulk status" or something. Then change all the status to that and back. this would trigger that email to go to all the current orders. Man I love cubecart!!

As Always B, you are right on top of things in a positive way!!

I find myself in a position where I really need to send an email to about 100 orders/customers about shipping timing. Is there a way to achieve this? All I see right now is newsletter which will only go out to subscribed customers. That could work but I think most will not be subscribed. I was hoping I could select orders from the list and send send blanket email. But I don't think thats an option.

Reorder did in fact work, But seems maybe this should be on the wish list? I also know if I add something to an order for a customer, there is no way for them to pay the difference. Not sure if I make them an entire order, have not tried that. But my opinion is if it does not get in the basket, it will never get paid for?

My customer had a payment stopped by his bank. I think it was for possible fraud maybe. Any way now his order shows as pending, but there is no way for him to pay for it that we can see. His basket is empty and no payment button on the pending order. How do we make this available to pay? Or does he need to hit the reorder button?

I would love to be able to select orders from Processing orders, then maybe have in the dropdown for what to do, an entry to export order details. The details would need to be order number, name, products ordered as it shows up when you open the order. This can be a CSV file, or anything else if something is easier. I have a "todo" spread sheet in google docs with all current orders and what is needed. Keep in mind I am manufacturing most stuff so this is not a simple go pull the stock and box it issue.

Thanks B, I will think about it more before I try it. I want to be able to export the order so I can import it into my current processing sheet. Unless there is some way to do that already?

I am looking to see if anybody has used or knows if it is safe to use the app called store manager by eMagicOne. It appears to allow more interaction with the store for things like managing orders. I wanted to try it since its free, but always cautious about letting things into my store. https://emagicone.com/products/solutions-for-cubecart/

Can this plugin be configured to do customer referral tracking or is there one for that? I want to track referrals and provide rewards based on the referrals. Customers should be able to see their current status. Then apply the reward when making a purchase.

Looks pretty great so far, I was hoping the custom color would apply to the text and not be a simple box with color beside the text. Is there a way to change that?

Thanks Guys - Guess I missed that check box - DOH!! Now back to trying this out. My goal is I get a lot of emails because status of order is still "Processing" making folks think nothing is happening. Our orders can go from pack and ship to almost a month. So you see why the need for more information to the customers.

Trying out this plugin, So far it works as expected, but now my "unsettled orders" tab on dashboard does not contain the new order status orders. How do I fix the dashboard to show all orders except complete or canceled?

I would like to have a customer incentive program where if we get x number of sales from new customers that were referred by an original customer, the original gets something free. So lets say bsmither refers 5 new customers, next time bsmither buys something a free item from a predetermined catagory will be free. Then bsmithers counter is reset to build another 5 credits. Maybe there is a pay extension for this? BTW, it doesn't have to be automatic, I don't mind if I have to do the actual counting and reseting, it would just be nice I guess if the counter were within CC and the customer could see the count.

perfect as always!! once again, bsmither for the win!!

I have made the changes, doesn't seem to work yet. I am assuming I need to reload the scripts as I had to do for another change you helped me with. But I don't remember how to do that?

Thank you very much - this will be weekend home work for me.

notepad ++ is awesome for almost all things text related IMHO. Just my $.02

I ship international as well. Thats why I was thinking about looking for the @, or really any non letter/number?

where can I put an input validation for the Zip code? At least twice I have received orders with the persons email address in the zip code field. Now I get that the customer has entered this wrong, but seems like we should at least check there is no @ in the zipcode?

Sorry I think it was missed. Yes it works great now with the sprintf() in the UPS module.

I agree it is scarce. My first goal was to learn how to pass a custom price to the basket. If I could do that, then I could code a page that would generate custom quotes and allow them to be added to the basket. To simplify testing I was thinking the "page" could just have a input box to capture a value. Then if I could pass that back then I would have the necessary way to get custom dynamic pricing for a product. the ultimate goal is to allow the customer to enter any number of custom length parts. The price will be based on this. The description would be a coded string that I can parse to get all the data needed to create the parts quoted. I thought a popup type page so it would not really be embedded in CC maybe. I am sure I can figure out a work around for the description if It can't be saved with the basket entry. I did try to play around with using options for getting lengths. I tried to assign a value per mm option. Then I was hoping if I used a textbox for the option it might multiply the entered number by the value to get the total. But as you likely expect that did not work. A typical frame that we sell will have 12 - 20 different frame pieces. These may have several different lengths. and among the lengths they will have different hole placement. I am trying to provide a way for customers to get an instant quote and place the order if they want for whatever they dream up. Product options will work to allow people to purchase some qty of pre-defined lengths. That has value for me and I will likely add that in the very near future.

well actually it was a typo above, but not in the correct way. It should have been 4 places not three. here is a product where I did not fill in anything (which will be an issue for sure) Here is my numbers I have entered: And here is after save and reload:

Does that mean you thought about it but did not come up with anything? Or it is too complex to tray and make work from this context?

YOU DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To be sure, I entered in 20,16,4 for the dimensions and cube cart has converted them to 20.000,16.000,4.000. Thank You again. Now to get my other stuff going - I see you gave it some thought. where did you locate the UPS API specs so quickly? Seems like I should have been able to do that and not been such a PIA
