Post MODIFICATION: Upgraded thanks.tpl page

I feel like 68 kind of leaves the customer hanging after they make a purchase for an ad. It doesn't send off an email to the customer with any additional information or a receipt. The thanks.tpl page gives the customers a 1 liner. So I plumped it up with some goodies. All you have to do is edit my copy of thanks.tpl with some information like your company name, email, and possibly change the border color of the table to your theme and upload it.

Now when the customer buys a listing they are greeted with some additional information and a receipt that they can print off.

I sent some email templates to eric which he is going to implant in a future version of 68 classifieds, one of which will send the customer a thank you/ order invoice email.

Let me know what you guys think of my upgraded thanks.tpl page, any feedback is welcome.


Replace the following code with your code in your template editor for the page: default/checkout/thanks.tpl
Code:
<!-- Thanks Page -->
<fieldset>
	<legend>{$smarty.const.LANG_THANK_YOU}</legend>
	<p>Thank you for your order {$firstname}! If you paid by credit card or another form of instant payment your listing should now be viewable online. To prevent duplicate orders please do not hit the back button. Please see below for your order details. It is recommended that you print this page for your records.</p>
<br /><br />
<center>
<table width="98%" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" style="border: 2px solid #888846;">
  <tr>
    <td width="100%">
<h1 style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold; color: #000000;">Order Receipt</h1>
<strong>Order ID:</strong> {$oID}   <strong>Date:</strong> {$oDate}   <strong>Status:</strong> {$oStatusText}

						</tr>
					</table>
</td>
  </tr>
</table>
</center>
<br />
<p>If you selected to pay by check or money order your listing will not be viewable online to the public until payment has been received. You may make payments out to "Your Company Name" for the amount of {$fomatTotal|format_money} and mail to:</p>
<p><strong>Your Company Name</strong><br />
Your Address<br />
City, ST, Postal</p><br />
If you decide you would like to use a different method of payment or if you have any questions or concerns you may email us at <a href="mailto:youremailaddress">youremailaddress</a>.

No problem. You're welcome to edit it and use it in the next version. If this is so we can delete this thread when that version comes out with this upgrade.

Thanks for your kind comments. I'm glad I made something of use to someone on these forums!

Also you can use the methods posted in this thread ->
Different thank you pages for different methods of payments?

to show different information for different gateways.

CWP,
I was messing around this weekend with the purple template as it seemed like it would be easier to use to make it match my existing site. I see that there aren't nearly as many tpl files for that template. Do you know how one would implement this on the purple template instead of the default template?
Thanks!
Adam

I havent played with the new templates at all but if they follow suit with the V3 templates a template file is first used if it exists in the chosen template folder and if it doesnt exist the template in the default is used.

This basically means that only the templates that change from the default actually have to be included in the new template.

Yes what Larry said is correct. The template system uses a layered approach and always reverts to the default if one can not be found.
