Login Welcome Message to include company name

Post by picstart » Sun Apr 22, 2012 6:53 pm

I have found the file and line that needs to be changed

Code: Select all

$_['text_logged']   = 'You are logged in as <a href="%s">%s</a> <b>(</b> <a href="%s">Logout</a> <b>)</b>';

that shows the users first name when logged in in the header area. what i cant see is how i can relate the login message to show the company name and not the users first name as below. I

existing display
You are logged in as Marie ( Logout

would like to change it to
You are logged in as 'company name field' ( Logout

thanks

It is this line of code

Code: Select all

$this->data['text_logged'] = sprintf($this->language->get('text_logged'), $this->url->link('account/account', '', 'SSL'), $this->customer->getFirstName(), $this->url->link('account/logout', '', 'SSL'));
From catalog/controller/common/header.php

Have tried modding this code below can someone tell me if i am on the right lines as when i change it to the code below i just get a blank screen instead of the home page, i am guessing i have to change a combination of the link path , where it says customer and the getFirstName parts

Code: Select all

$this->data['text_logged'] = sprintf($this->language->get('text_logged'), $this->url->link('account/account', '', 'SSL'), $this->customer->getFirstName(), $this->url->link('account/logout', '', 'SSL'));
changed to :

Code: Select all

$this->data['text_logged'] = sprintf($this->language->get('text_logged'), $this->url->link('account/address', '', 'SSL'), $this->customer->getCompany(), $this->url->link('account/logout', '', 'SSL'));

Your editing the correct file .. sort of ...

except it is more complicated (just had a look about the source).

./system/library/customer.php contains the functions in question, which doesn't include a getCompany() function, so you would have to create one. Also 'Company' at least by default is not a standard field in Open Cart (outside of addresses) so you would have to do a look-up from there, and then maybe fall back to customer name on company name being blank.
