Hi guys,

I upgraded to 1.5.4 but now I can not seem to find how to edit a customer account???
In sales -> sales -> customers I only see 3 buttons: approve, insert and delete
But no edit????
Any ideas?

Thanks

Extended? What, are you using a 1024 X 768 RES or worse an 800 X 700 ? :laugh:

v1.5.2.1 Well on this subject of horizontal scrolling on admin/sales/customers/customers page, our service/order person does have a low res only screen and asked me to get rid of the unneeded "ip" column so she didn't have to scroll so much. When she scrolls right to edit, she loses sight of which row is to whom and loses sight of the correct row (she needs to align the rightmost "edit" button with the leftmost "customer name").
I would prefer to have the ability to size column widths and keep all of the columns. I just tried commenting out the "ip" related code at admin/view/template/sale/customer_list.tpl, and that didn't work at all.
I also looked at admin/view/stylesheet, and I didn't see anything there.
Is there good way to handle this with her current monitor?
Thank you,

Sorry, but that's ridiculous. She must have an 800X600 Resolution which "no one uses". I wouldn't get rid of that column on account of one persons failure to join the year 2013. ;)

Thanks, I think...
The monitor is 19" widescreen, which I forget the res range of. The problem is the old PC box, which was before widescreen, and does 4x3 stretchOvision to run it... no newer drivers.
My personal 23" which I took to work, is 1920 wide and the customer page fills the full width.
I also found the customer.php file and I didn't have luck with it either.
Here is a screen grab from my 1680 wide laptop and Chrome:

1024 x 768 is still quite a common resolution, because it is useful. The problem with the customer list in this resolution is not the IP column but the email column. The columns are designed to be fixed width, and excess text will wrap around - no problem. But email addresses have no spaces so cannot wrap. This forces that column to widen and so everything goes off screen. And then it's a total pain to get to an edit link.
What I did was get rid of both the email and ip columns, and then the rest fit okay. You can't just remove the TD, you have to also remove the header and the filter - but removing them caused errors so I solved it by removing the codes WITHIN the TD's, not the TD's themselves (I replaced the contents with a nbsp char).
Having said that, I look back and see a possible easier fix I could have done -- simply re-arrange the column order. In other words move the EDIT column from the right over to the left. Again, you have to move the column, header and filter. Should be quite easy to do, and since the edit link will then be right next to the customer name it should solve the situation.

Thank you, (I am sure this time).
That is a good plan to move the edit column over. I can't tell which code is the header, but I will trial and error by reordering the code until I get it.
Thank you.

This might help...
There are three sections in admin/view/template/sale/customer_list.tpl
First section starts with tag "thead" - inside that there are 10 td's. This is the header section.
Next section (filters) starts with tr class="filter".
Then the contents start at an ordinary tr.
When moving TDs make sure you grab the td to the /td.
Should be quite easy.

Thank you again.
I should be able to do it right the first time with your directions. I think I will wait for Monday though.
Thank you.
