Simple Invoices - Forum

I noticed one of the dreamtime ideas was to enable setting an invoice language different from the generally set language. Anybody an idea as to how to go about this. Would it, for instance, be a feature that is part of the main code or would it be implemented as an extension? What changes would it involve and on what levels? I've been trying to figure out how the whole thing is woven together in order to see what is involved and I have made some headway but my knowledge of php/smarty/zend is limited (although growing fast) and I could use some help. The logic is not all that difficult (setting up the appropriate interfaces with dropdown menu in add customer, sending it on it's way to the db, retrieving data upon making an invoice telling it from which pond to fish). Now it's just a matter of getting it in code, right? And the manner in which to do so. Also picked up something about zend_translate. What is that all about?

I forgot to mention that being able to set the language of invoices is really crucial if I were to use Simple Invoices. And I thought it silly to let some little thing like that stand in the way.

hey joris

re invoice language
- im in the process on making alot of changes to Simple Invoices
- most of them are relating the 'Invoice Preferences'
- in the next release invoice preferences will be responsible for alot more - and one thing is that you'll be able to specify what language is to be used for invoices made using certain invoice preferences
- the work is about 50% done for this feature

get svn trunk up and running and post here with your questions - im sure we can get this feature workign 100% soon

cheers

Hey Justin,

Just got the trunk version in (2731) but I was met with the following error:

Warning: require_once(Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/simple_invoices_trunk/include/init.php on line 10

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear:./include/class:./library/:./library/pdf:./include/') in /var/www/simple_invoices_trunk/include/init.php on line 10

Am I missing smth obvious?

thanks

Joris
