How to display Customer order number at checkout message and input in HTML link?

-- url of the page with the problem -- : www.ginmacher.de
-- HikaShop version -- : 4.2.2
-- Joomla version -- : 3.9.6
-- PHP version -- : 7.2
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Firefox/Chrome
-- Error-message(debug-mod must be tuned on) -- : Access to Order Number

Hi Team

when a customer buys a product via the webshop, after the payment process via plugin Paypal Plus he will be redirected to the page where the sucess message will be displayed to him (e. g. thanks for the purchase ...). This message can be edited in the hika shop text file. But I also want to show the current order number to the customer in this message. What's the variable to add into the HTML code that also the Hika Shop order number can be displayed.

Additionally: I want to create also a HTML link to a rating portal, that the customer can give my shop a rating. For that reason I also need to put this variable (the order number) and also other variables if possible into the mail - see example:

www.shopauskunft.de/neue-bewertung?xc__label=XYZ&bestellnr= [ORDER NUMBER]&email=[CustomerMail]&bestelldatum=[ORDER_DATE]

How do I get the variables per order into the customer message and also into the HTML link?

Thanks for help.

Hello Nicolas,

thanks for the quick answer. I guess i need a little bit more help:

In the view after_end the Text for THANK_YOU_FOR_YOUR_PURCHASE is displayed. This text will be set up in the language file (I use the german language only. So my entry for the THANK_YOU... is:

THANK_YOU_FOR_PURCHASE="<br/><strong>Herzlichen Dank für Deinen Einkauf</strong><br/></br><strong>WICHTIG! </strong></br>Du erhältst nach Deiner Bestellung umgehend eine Bestellbestätigung von mir. Bitte prüfe ggf. Deinem SPAM-ORDNER, ob diese dort gelandet ist und füge mich in Deinem E-Mail Programm als sicheren Absender hinzu!</br><a href=' www.shopauskunft.de/neue-bewertung?xc__label=12345& bestellnr=<?php echo $this->order->order_number; ?>'>Bewerte uns über Shopauskunft.de</a>"

As you see I have included here the shoplink and tried to get the order number in the link via the PHP script you showed me (marked bold). But that doesn't work. The link still shows the PHP sscript in live system and does not retreive the order number.

Or can I enter the HTML or text for hyperlink also in the after_end?

defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
?><?php
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$app->enqueueMessage( JText::_('THANK_YOU_FOR_PURCHASE') );
if(!empty($this->url))
$app->enqueueMessage(JText::sprintf('YOU_CAN_NOW_ACCESS_YOUR_ORDER_HERE',$this->url));

I mean like the above messages are shown and additionally I enter in the after_end somethink linke:
Here is your order numer (getordernumer via PHP)
Rate us here (www.shoplink........also include order number here as ahref)

Thanks for any support.

Hello Philippe,

I tried as you mentioned below. But somehow after the PayPal payment I get an error message. I entered the following in the .ini file:

THANK_YOU_FOR_PURCHASE="<br/><strong>Herzlichen Dank für Deinen Einkauf</strong><br/></br><strong>WICHTIG! </strong></br>Du erhältst nach Deiner Bestellung umgehend eine Bestellbestätigung von mir. Bitte prüfe ggf. Deinem SPAM-ORDNER, ob diese dort gelandet ist und füge mich in Deinem E-Mail Programm als sicheren Absender hinzu!</br> %s Bewerte uns über Shopauskunft.de</a>"

Hi Nicolas,

thanks for the correction. Now it works - BUT - with a double message (see screenshot

Hi Nicolas,

thanks a lot. Now it works as expected!! I included all relevant parameters in the Mail. Your guys really doing the best support here in this forum.

One last questions from my side: in the link I want to add the target=_blank that the click on the link opens a new window. I tried to add it as well into the ahref-code but I always get an server error. How Do I add this in that code:

$url = "<a href=' www.shopauskunft.de/neue-bewertung?xc__label=12345&bestellnr= ". $this->order->order_number."'>";

Thanks again!

Thanks Nicolas - again

Alex
