I am currently testing the checkout process thru my magento store and paypal sandbox with dummy orders.

After a guest or logged in customer makes a purchase from the store, it seems magento does not send an email (order confirmation) to the purchaser… only when i log into the admin and “invoice” or “ship” the order does magento sent an email advising the customer of the same… i know once the store is live, paypal will confirm the purchase with an email from their side…

Also i know there is a function on the order page to “notify” the customer of the order status eg: Paypal Pending but again seems to be a manual “switch” to send an email…

Is the any option in the admin to have the store send an “auto-email” the the customer after checkout is complete…

I need to use my store in one country only so i do not need Multi Country options in any part of my store .

so i have been thinking of tweaking Magento 1.4.0.1 to replace countries with regions and replace regions with localities to make shipping options more specific

Customer will choose his region —— > then will choose his locality

i can do that from MySql but i,m afraid of it would make conflicts with shipping modules or methods in the future if i needed them

so i need and expert who can advice me how can i make this tweak safely .

I’m trying to get some order information to set some javascript values on the checkout confirmation page. I’ve tried both inserting the javascript directly, and putting it in a separate page and creating a block in the checkout.xml. What I’m noticing is that the javascript seems to be stripped out of that page. Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? I’m able to set the variables in the other pages, so I’m not sure what would be different about this step.

First post here…I’ve been building websites in Microsoft-land for over 10 years now (asp and .net) and have a client who is moving to Magento. So far I’m really liking what I see on the platform. Anyway, here’s my question…

My client wants historic order and customer data imported into Magento before the site goes live. I see how I could import customers using a CSV and System>Import/Export, but what about orders? I don’t even see support for it in the API, so is this something where you have to figure out the db schema and import directly to it?

Any help would be appreciated.

I want to modify the logo source from a link back to logo.gif.

When I click through System  Configuration  Design only 3 sections are displayed.

Package
Themes
Product Image Watermarks

The user guide states that HTML Head should be displayed here too. I am logged in as admin and I am using version 1.3.2.4

Many thanks in advance for any help on this.

I want to create default text (HTML code actually) that will be displayed in every instance of the short description. Is there anyway to do this besides mass updating all of my product files via csv?
