Thank you, Reed")* Hello, > I can add the tracking number manually to the email You can eventually use an order custom field but you'll also have to add some code customization to automatically set the tracking number of your customer's order when his order will be created. But you can as you said, manually add his tracking number through the custom field and he will be able to see it through his order listing space (you'll just have to create a new menu item and set its type to "Customer orders").

Yes, you'll just have to use 2 custom fields : - Tracking number - Tracking link Which will be displayed through your customer order detail page. 2.Your tracking number won't be the same for each orders so it's not a "static" content, if you don't have the business version, the solution can be to directly edit the "media\com_hikashop\mail\order_status_notification.html.php" file to add the tracking number, but note that you'll have to save your changes before every update/upgrade to avoid loosing your changes. Also, note that in your case, you probably **won't have to do any changes through your "order status notification email"** because your order custom fields will automatically be displayed through the "Additional information" of your email. So you'll just have to add your tracking number/link and change your order status.

YES, if you : - Set a value for your "tracking number" custom field via your order configuration page - Then update the order status of your order to "shipped" The "order status notification email" email will be sent to your customers with the "tracking number" order custom field value displayed under the "Additionnal informations" section of your email. 2. YES, but you won't need it in your case. If you really want to edit your email code (which will require development skills) you'll have to edit the "media\com_hikashop\mail\order_status_notification.html.php" file to add the tracking number, but note that you'll have to save your changes before every update/upgrade to avoid loosing your changes.

Is there a way to get a tracking # into the email for when the order is marked shipped within "Hika Eessential" and what is the way? I am not interested in the Business addition and the "order "table as I do not have it... What is the manual method for Hika Eessential?

We can't give you code about that because it require a lot of code and because it's an already existing feature. If you want to ask a developer to develop this functionality for you it will be more expansive than just upgrade from Essential to Business...

There is no way to look at and perform any type of edit on the email that goes out to customers in a paid version of Essential? I thought he originally said it was possible to manually add a tracking # in Essential?

Thank you, Reed")* Hi, If you want to modify the email content before sending it, you can simply use the "email" button while seeing an order in the backend. The interface will allow you to modify the email content as you want, so you can add your shipping tracking number in the email and then send it to the customer. At this moment, you should not use the checkbox to notify the customer when modifying the order status and send the email manually instead. You can also edit the email content in the order listing, when you change the order status, you have to possibility to modify the email content in the special popup.
