Link to Jump from Order to Customer Record

Many times, it would be useful to be able to jump directly from an order to the customer's master record to see their information or their past orders. This small addition to the orders.php file enables that.

File: store/admin/orders.php. Go to the section near line 545 (depending on past plug-ins) labeled "Begin Customer and Payment Information." Find this section of code:

<tr>
<td class="main"><strong><?php echo TEXT_INFO_IP_ADDRESS; ?></strong></td>
<td class="main"><?php echo $order->info['ip_address']; ?></td>
</tr>

After this code, enter a new line and paste the following:

<!-- Begin Customer Info Link-->
<tr>
  <td class="main"><strong><?php echo ENTRY_CUSTOMER; ?></strong></td>
  <td class="main">
      <?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CUSTOMERS, 'search=' . $order->customer['email_address'] . '&origin=' . FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'NONSSL') . '" . >' . 'Lookup Customer' . '</a>'; ?>
   </td>
</tr> 
<!-- End Customer Info Link-->

Great tool!

anyway to have it link to customers orders page directly?

There is already built into the Admin Orders a link to the Customer ... there is an icon next to the Customer Name, just click on it and it takes you to the Customer page in the Admin ...

Is there something different that you change is doing?

the built in one is not on the actual orders.php page

I see, you did not mean in the Order Listing but from the actual viewing of an Order itself ...

Good news, is there is a Link from the Order itself to the customers.php in the upcoming Zen Cart v1.6 ... :smile:
