I want to add "Bankcard" in addition to Visa and Mastercard to the Credit Card Payment options.
I thought it may be easier to rename Dinners Club or Discover etc, and if so where is the language file for it? ------------- www.austcoldindustries.com.au |

Hi, The strings for "Diners Club" and "Discover" are stored in the database not in the language file. What do you mean by "Bankcard" is that a specific brand/type such as Visa etc? There is quite a lot of code for each of the Credit Card types so I doubt very much that it will be as simple as remaining one that you are not using. For example a quick scan for "Diners" finds 13 files with refernces to it. That said, I've not investigated in any detail. ------------- Editing ProductCart Code?

Hamish, you said "a quick scan for Diners finds 13 files". What do you use to "scan"? It sounds like that might be good tool to have. Thanks, Alan |

Hi, Follow the link on my sig! :-) I use "grep" which is a unix tool, which I run via cygwin. Mostly because I'm familiar and very comfortable with it from a previous life as a unix admin. There's a windows version as well, although I've not tried it (listed on the wiki page from my sig). To use "grep" I start up cygwin which opens a box similar to the windows CMD, navigate to the root of the folders I wish to search and then (usually) type the following command :- grep -lri "diners" * "diners" - The string / phrase I wish to search for. * - All files The -lri is switches to say: -l : List files. -r : recurse (go through all sub-folders) -i : Ignore case. There are a variety of "switches" which allow me to rapidly get to the info I want in the form I wish to see it. To get full info on "grep" you can either google it or type "man grep" to see the manual (documentation) for grep within cygwin itself. If that's all a bit much (and it can be) then give the windows version a go - I would asume the windows version offers similar facilities in a more user friendly wrapper. ------------- Editing ProductCart Code?

Hamish, Wow!  I guess the fact that I'm interested is a little scary to me. But, I will take a look at the windows version since I know I'll like the "friendly wrapper" better.Thanks for the informative response. Alan |

Hi Alan, It's a bit intimidating at first - but it's free & very powerful. I took a quick look at the windows version at www.wingrep.com site. It looks like it will offer you pretty much everything the traditional grep offers. The only downside is that it's $30 - but you get a 30 day trial & it's a small price to pay for such a useful tool. Wingrep is not the only option - there are plenty o others - google for - grep windows & you can find many others. Hamish ------------- Editing ProductCart Code?

Yes "Bankcard" is a card name just like "Visa" and "Mastercard".
What would be the most simple way to add the "Bankcard" payment option? ------------- www.austcoldindustries.com.au |

Hi, I'm confused - I just checked Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bankcard_%28credit_card%29%20 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bankcard_(credit_card) and it says bankcard is defunct. "Starting 1 January 2007, Bankcard would no longer be accepted by any merchant." Is this a different company/organisation operating under the same name? Is there a website to refer to? Anyway, in answer to your question - If "Bankcard" is offered via a payment gateway then code specific to that gateways API would need to be written. If it's an off-line option is simpler, but I don't know how much simpler yet as I've not investigated it. ------------- Editing ProductCart Code?

Looks like your right Hamish, the strange thing about it is we still have "Bankcard Mastercard Visa" printed on recent merchant stickers. And our merchant has not advised us of this. I will not bother proceeding with this the case.
Thanks for your time folks. ------------- www.austcoldindustries.com.au |
