Total number of products on order

[2cool]

Is it possible to add the total number of products at the order? this would help a lot for order picking.

What php code can be used and in which file?

Using vm 3.2 and joomla 3.7.2

Thanks,

Should be possible with a core hack or develop a vm extended plugin. Before add to cart execution check the cart quantity and return if there are to many products.

Thanks for your reply, but I guess no check is needed
Just the sum of articles (2 apples, 10 beans, 5 bread = 17 products)

Ah OK ... this should be inside the cart object. Make a vmdebug inside one of your cart template overrides and look what is there.

Hi could you explain this a bit more detailed, what/where should this be done, and what should I look for?
Just need total products added at bottom of admin order.

Thanks,

Hi, I added the code to mail_html_vendor.php but gave an error 0 ?

Guess I did it wrong

Code: [Select]

<?php
// echo vmText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CART_MAIL_VENDOR_TITLE').$this->vendor->vendor_name.'<br/>';
echo vmText::sprintf('COM_VIRTUEMART_MAIL_VENDOR_CONTENT',$this->vendor->vendor_store_name,$this->shopperName,$this->currency->priceDisplay($this->orderDetails['details']['BT']->order_total),$this->orderDetails['details']['BT']->order_number);

if(!empty($this->orderDetails['details']['BT']->customer_note)){
echo '<br /><br />'.vmText::sprintf('COM_VIRTUEMART_CART_MAIL_VENDOR_SHOPPER_QUESTION',$this->orderDetails['details']['BT']->customer_note).'<br />';
echo vmText::$this->orderDetails['totalItems'];
}

?>

?  echo vmText::$this->orderDetails['totalItems'];

try  echo 'Total Order Items: '.$this->orderDetails['totalItems'];

Hello

I must miss something obvious, but the proposed solution does not work. There is no such item...

Code: [Select]

echo 'Total Order Items: '.$this->orderDetails['totalItems'];
I suggest this solution

Code: [Select]

<?php 
  $totalNrOfOrderItems= 0;
  foreach ($this->orderDetails['items'] as $orderItem) {
    $totalNrOfOrderItems = $totalNrOfOrderItems + $orderItem->product_quantity; 
  }
  echo vmText::_('VM_TOTAL_NUMBER_OF_ORDER_ITEMS') . $totalNrOfOrderItems; 
?>
Hope that this will help.

regards

Ah .. I just assumed there was cos K&K said.. 

[Jörgen]

I have just added my solution to the /templates/my-template/html/com_virtuemart/invoice/invoice_items.php and can see that it works as expected. As 2cool said, it is a nice feature for order picking.

Have a nice day

oh sorry you're right, I just copy paste it from my template and forgot I've set this before on mail_html.php:

Code: [Select]

$totalItems = 0;
foreach($this->orderDetails['items'] as $item) {
$totalItems += $item->product_quantity;
}
$this->orderDetails['totalItems'] = $totalItems;

Hi and thank you,
I'm almost got this right....

But I see this on orders: VM_TOTAL_NUMBER_OF_ORDER_ITEMS5

Is this just a issue in translation file? i'm using Dutch language...

Thanks and regards,

This is a custom language key and you must create it

Extensions -> Languages -> Overrides

Thanks for your help!

But I tried to do the same on a new site but can't reproduce this again
Get this error on mails Notice: Use of undefined constant items - assumed 'items' in /templates/mytemplate/html/com_virtuemart/invoice/invoice_items.php on line 272

Step by step:
- in /components/com_virtuemart/views/invoice/tmpl/mail_html_vendor.php add:

Code: [Select]

echo 'Total Order Items: '.$this->orderDetails['totalItems'];
- in /templates/my-template/html/com_virtuemart/invoice/invoice_items.php -> add:

Code: [Select]

<?php 
  $totalNrOfOrderItems= 0;
  foreach ($this->orderDetails[items] as $orderItem) {
    $totalNrOfOrderItems = $totalNrOfOrderItems + $orderItem->product_quantity; 
  }
  echo vmText::_('VM_TOTAL_NUMBER_OF_ORDER_ITEMS') . $totalNrOfOrderItems; 
?>
- in /components/com_virtuemart/views/invoice/tmpl/mail_html.php -> add:

Code: [Select]

$totalItems = 0;
foreach($this->orderDetails['items'] as $item) {
$totalItems += $item->product_quantity;
}
$this->orderDetails['totalItems'] = $totalItems;

- Create a langauage override for 'VM_TOTAL_NUMBER_OF_ORDER_ITEMS'
