I have 9 websites in my magento installation, which again then have multiple languages etc. like below:
US - English
US - Spanish
US - French
UK - English
FR - French
I have created a php file with custom code which exports orders of websites. And those needs to be stored in separate folders based on country.
I want to run my export file url like http://example.com/xml/export.php?website=us
But to get the orders from a particular website, I need to set the Mage:app properly for that I have used below code:
Mage::app('base_uk', 'website');
But the above code is not working, and it is always fetching the orders from US store only, which is default for Mage:app().
How can I set my code to fetch orders form a specific website?
Please help, Thanks.
For Product collections there is such a thing as ->setStoreFilter($store_id). Since each $store_id is unique for any given website (i.e. if you know the $store_id, you know the $website_id), you might use this.
Sample code:
$orders = Mage::getModel('sales/order')
->getCollection()
->addAttributeToSelect("*")
->addStoreFilter($store_id)
My two cents: run that code for all $store_ids within the desired $website_id.
Note: I did not test this, just thinking with you. Could be that this function is not available for order collections. I still think you should then try to find a function that does filter orders by $store_id, since that is the Magento way to go!

I am updating the Stock on Hand Inventory Qty on a Magento store through an extension that I have developed, using the following code:
Mage::getModel("cataloginventory/stock_item")
->loadByProduct($pid)
->setQty($qty)
->save();
Now, from my testing, this works fine, however I am a little concerned if this is having any negative affects on the different types of product that can be created in Magento (such as simple and complex products).
Is the above the correct way to update the SOH, and do I need to handle Complex products any differently? My gut feeling is that I don't need to do anything differently with complex products as they all end up deriving from a Simple product which has its own Stock on Hand?
Any advice appreciated
As long as you only update simples you'll be fine like this. Indeed all other non-virtual product types derive their stock from the simples.
You might even want to add
$stockItem = Mage::getModel("cataloginventory/stock_item")
->loadByProduct($pid)
->setQty($qty);
if ($stockItem->getCanBackInStock() && $stockItem->getQty() > $stockItem->getMinQty()) {
$stockItem->setIsInStock(true)
->setStockStatusChangedAutomaticallyFlag(true);
}
$stockItem->save();
See Mage_CatalogInventory_Model_Stock::backItemQty() to see how Magento adds stock.
I'm developing a script (external to Magento, not a module) which aims to output a text list of all available products, their prices and some other attributes. However, catalog price rules don't seem to be applied to product prices. If I use any of the following:
$_product->getPrice()
$_product->getFinalPrice()
I get the normal price (without rules being applied).
If I use:
$_product->getSpecialPrice()
I get null unless the product actually has a special price inserted in the product itself (i.e. if special price is not related with catalog rules).
I also tried
Mage::getModel('catalogrule/rule')->calcProductPriceRule($product,$product->getPrice())
as suggested in the answer given by Fabian Blechschmidt, but interestingly it returns the normal price only if the product is affected by any catalog rule, returning null otherwise.
There was a similar question in StackOverflow and Magento Forums some time ago, but the provided answer (which is to insert the code bellow) doesn't work for me (returned prices remain the same).
Mage::app()->loadAreaPart(Mage_Core_Model_App_Area::AREA_FRONTEND,Mage_Core_Model_App_Area::PART_EVENTS);
Does anybody have an idea of how to achieve this?
I'm using Magento 1.6.2.0.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks to you, I found a new site:
http://www.catgento.com/magento-useful-functions-cheatsheet/
And they mentioned:
Mage::getModel('catalogrule/rule')->calcProductPriceRule($product,$product->getPrice())
HTH
As catalog price rules heavily depend on time, store and visiting customer, you need to set those parameters when you want to retrieve the product final price with it's price rules applied.
So, in your case, make sure that provided product is passed with the desired store and customer group id, which can be set as:
Mage::getModel('catalogrule/rule')->calcProductPriceRule($product->setStoreId('STORE_ID')->setCustomerGroupId('CUSTOMER_GROUP_ID'),$product->getPrice())
I discovered the problem. The discounted prices display Ok in the store frontend. The problem was that I was developing a script "external" to Magento (thus not a Magento module), something like:
<?php
set_time_limit(0);
ignore_user_abort();
error_reporting(E_ALL^E_NOTICE);
header("Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8");
require_once "app/Mage.php";
// Get default store code
$default_store = Mage::app()->getStore();
...
For everything to work properly it seems that one must follow the proper Magento bootstrap, and develop everything as a module. My script was so simple that I thought it wouldn't be necessary to code a complete module. In other words, everything in Magento should really be a module.
Concluding, using the module approach, all the methods work as expected:
$_product->getPrice()
$_product->getFinalPrice()
$_product->getSpecialPrice()
Thank you all for your input.
This helped me in this issue: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/176883/
. Jernej's solution seems plausible, but it does not handle rules that Overwrite other rules by using 'stop processing' and therefore can apply more than one rule.
$original_price = $_product->getPrice();
$store_id = 1; // Use the default store
$discounted_price = Mage::getResourceModel('catalogrule/rule')->getRulePrice(
Mage::app()->getLocale()->storeTimeStamp($store_id),
Mage::app()->getStore($store_id)->getWebsiteId(),
Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomerGroupId(),
$_product->getId());
// if the product isn't discounted then default back to the original price
if ($discounted_price===false) {
$discounted_price=$original_price;
}
I'm working with Magento CE 1.6 in a project where we need an easy way to fill the movie info in DVDs and Blu-Rays products for a reseller ecommerce. I'm set to use the Rotten Tomatoes API wich seems very adequate for our purposes, but here's the thing: We don't want to have to input every single detail of the movie in the New Product dialog, oppositely, we want to fetch the info automatically using the movie name as hint (the API perfectly supports this). I though that we could achieve this by two means:
Having the administrator to enter only the names of the movies and
create and run periodically a script that fetches the rest of the
info with the API and updates the data directly in the DB. I've been
watching the DB changes when a product is saved and would'nt like to
do that.
Editing the Magento code to make the new product form auto fillable,
maybe with ajax, once a movie name is entered. Zend framework isn't
my strong and seems kind of hard too.
Am I seeing this problem from the rigth angle? Is there maybe another API? Or a Magento extension? Or another ecommerce?!
I would suggest a little different approach. Enhancing the Admin interface is difficult, but possible. Here is an easier way.
Method #1 - Quick and Easy
Create yourself a script that would go through a list of products. You can select them by attribute type, category, or even just select them all! Then, loop through that collection, and for each product, grab the title, query the movie API, and set the product's attributes. Then, save the product, and move to the next one. Something like this:
Note: Be sure to create your custom attributes in the admin and assign them to the attribute set.
<?php
require_once 'app/Mage.php';
umask(0);
Mage::app('default');
function getVideoDataFromAPI($title)
{
// get your data from the API here...
return $data;
}
$collection = Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/product_collection')
->addAttributeToFilter('attribute_set_id', $yourAttributeSetId)
->addAttributeToFilter('year', ''); // <-- Set a field here that will be empty by default, and filled by the API. This is '' because it won't be null.
foreach ( $collection->getAllIds() as $id ) {
$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($id);
$videoData = getVideoDataFromAPI($product->getName());
if ( empty($videoData) ) { continue; }
$product->setYear($videoData['year'])
->setRating($videoData['rating'])
->save();
}
?>
Method #2 - Do the above, but in a custom extension
I always like extensions over scripts. They are more secure and more powerful. With an extension you could have an admin list of the products, can filter them how ever you would like, and have a mass action to pull the video data manually. You could also set it up on a cron job to pull regularly.
How can I simply add new simple products incrementally to configurable products?
or do I still need to retrieve the 2 original arrays of the pre-defined configurable product (getConfigurableAttributesData and getConfigurableProductsData) first, append the new arrays and set them again? Is it worked for my case just as the first-time creation?
And if the new simple product owns a new attribute / attribute options, do I also need to create /edit the attribute first before adding?
Thanks in advance!
The API as it stands does not have the functionality to do this.
Your options are:
Extend the API. (Hours of fun)
Do it with Magento methods in your own module or standalone code that includes Mage.php.
SQL script mixed in with your existing API code.
Buy someone's module - (Hope your German is good)
The approach you take also depends on your SKU naming scheme, if you have a simple BASECODE-SIZE-COLOUR type of scheme then the SQL option can work a treat, and in next to no time, but will be heavily scorned on by Magento evangelists.
That means you are probably going to have to write your own code. Here is a very useful site that should help get you started:
http://www.ayasoftware.com/
As well as being able to import configurables (by a variety of means including SQL) there are also snippets of code useful for updating superattribute price differentials. No readymade complete solution, but, you may need to roll your own anyway depending on your SKU naming scheme.
Whilst you are at it you may also want to write some code to find simple products that are not hooked up to anything when they should be, i,e. the ones with no visibility.
I have a category dedicated for exported goods , obviously , they will not be sold locally . so , how can I prevent customers who are from my country from ordering products that are meant only for exporting.. and showing an error message .. please help !
I would say that you will have to create a new product type. You'll need a new module (use Daniel's excellent kick-start extension: http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/Daniel+Nitz/extension/1108/modulecreator) and then have your model extend Mage_Catalog_Model_Product_Type_Simple.
Then, add a new attribute for your new product type to capture Allowed Countries, and implement the isSalable method in your Model to check for Allowed Countries.
This is not trivial, but it should be the right approach. The guys at Inchoo (who write a great blog) have a good tutorial on the process: link text and in fact they've provided the shell of the module.
Good luck!
