Hello

I am seting up the bank transfer info, and fine tuning the local translation for the bank_transfer.php file. But this payment option is not really making easy for people to buy, there is no way to control the incoming transfer other than the ammount itself on the bank account.

So I am instructing future customers to go and look the current order number (after order placement) and write on the bank transfer observations to which order that transfer relates to. This forces them to unnecessary steps which can drive them away from the shop in the future.

One way to mitigate this effort would be to insert the actual order number variable in the middle of the $_['text_description'] in the bank_transfer.php file

With this in mind customers can take notice of that (as well as other transfer instructions) before finalizing the order and having to perform additional steps

How can I pick the actual order variable and where from ?

If my understanding is correct, I'm sure somene will tell me if not, but:

The order is created at the confirm stage of checkout.

At this point the bank payment details have become a comment in the order history.

The following is available at the confirm stage $this->session->data['order_id'].

Getting it to appear as part of the already entered comment is going to be difficult.
