Styling and adding text on checkout thank u

How can I center the text and add text to the thank you page after the customer checks out? Also I would like to have the text include an option selected by the customer. For example, I have added a field that asks the customer to select the charity the a portion of their purchase to go to. I would like to have this charities name included in the text and to change per their selection.

You can modify the thank you page by going in the menu Display->Views and editing the file after_end

What CSS would I use center the text on the Thank You page? Also how would I have certain text values change per customer input? I see this "s%" throughout the language edit function. Does this represent a variable if so how can I make it so that the name of the charity that the customer selects changes on the Thank You page?

The CSS of messages is handled by your template. You should modify your template's CSS. I can't tell what to change where since it depends on how your template is made.

%s is indeed used to pass variables.


You can do like that:
$orderClass = hikashop::get('class.order');
$order = $orderClass->get($order_id);
$app =& JFactory::getApplication();
$app->enqueueMessage( JText::sprintf('THANK_YOU_FOR_PURCHASE',$order->custom_field_column_name) );

And then in your translation file:
THANK_YOU_FOR_PURCHASE="thank you for your funding to %s"

You of course need to replace the custom_field_column_name by the actual field name of your custom field of the table "order".

It did not work for me. In place of the charity name I received the %s symbol. Here is the php code I used

?>
<?php
$orderClass = hikashop::get('class.order');
$order = $orderClass->get($order_id);
$app =& JFactory::getApplication();
$app->enqueueMessage( JText::sprintf('THANK_YOU_FOR_PURCHASE',$order->address_charity) );

Thanks

Could you make a screenshot of the configuration of your custom field ?

Here you go.

So what is the good word Nicholas?

That is a custom field of the table "address".
You should create a custom field of the table "order" if you want to access it there.

The options I have for tables are address, user, product, and category. I do not have the option for "order".

That's probably because you're using the Essential version and not the Business edition. Custom fields of the tables item/order/entry are only available in the Business edition.

Ok. For future reference when I do upgrade to the Business Edition is there a discount since I'm upgrading from the Essential version?

When you want to update from Essential to Business, you can buy that product: www.hikashop.com/en/component/hikashop/product/show/cid-3.html
It is the exact price difference between the Business edition and the Essential edition.

Cool
