      the only way (I know of anyway) to automatically print is to have a net connected printer that does one of the following

      a) checks a set email account and prints anything that comes into that account
      b) a cloud print connected printer
      c) a printer that has some other interface to the net one could script things for
      d) a gprs enabled printer where you can send sms to

      all which will – at a minimum – require the printer to be connected to the net or phone network in some way and has (been given) permission to do the above

        re 1: i don’t know what you mean, please elaborate (you can print stuff from the order history in the admin of course)

        re 2: you cannot automatically print stuff (well, you can but not the way I think you mean).

        *very simplistically speaking*, software/scripts cannot access hardware (unless your hardware is setup to accept certain software commands).

        imagine if this were possible and i write a script/website that automatically can print to your printer.
        so, when you come to my – malicious – site i force your printer to print 10000000000000 pages without your say so…

        (again, this is very simplistic, but will give you an idea – then again, maybe i am misunderstanding what you are after)

        in summary somewhat: software is not allowed to access hardware without the hardwares “say so”, but you can setup (some) hardware to respond to certain software commands. see also post below

          >but that snippet sends the same email as the first one

          just change what it sends then. it’s a codesnippet, adjust as needed

          >Another idea we use on our sites… an “estimeted delivery time” sign on the website that can be set and changed by the pizzeria staff.

          hmm, dunno.
          what’s wrong with typing some text on the order page (or anywhere else for that matter) ?!

          i am sure there are also a bunch of other plugins that let you set some signage of some sort , somewhere without having to try to re-invent the wheel so to speak ?!

            FYI: as of 2.11.8

            a)order, confirmation and thank you page should now scroll pretty much as described/requested above

            b) re: Would it be possible to add a “go to cart button” once you have selected an item?
            kind of decided against this particular thing, but have added the option to show a “minicart” so to speak at the top of the page , if the main cart is not in view which – at least I believe – is somewhat better.

            go to the cart-widget and enable there or if using shortcode add attribute minicart=1

            any problems or issues with this, let me know of course

              it works just fine. (scroll to the bottom of your page and you’ll see it)

              the problem is that your theme’s css has the following

              #page-title, #content {
              z-index: 9900;
              }

              wheras the popup has a z-index of “only” 1000

              so your content covers absolutely everything

              change one of the 2 z-indexes

                why are you asking me the same question twice ? I already answered your original question by email

                  >so its not mather one page or not. this urls exist in my xml map.

                  then take them out of the xml map.
                  those links/pages are useless anyway unless you create the template that goes with them as they will otherwise just be displayed as a normal blogpost without any option to add things to cart etc

                    bit puzzled by that question. it would have been a lot faster to just try it out , no ?
                    in any case, the answer is “yes”. type in 0 and hit enter (or click on the checkmark )

                      we’ve been here before……………..
                      this/your theme is still hacked.

                        appearance->widgets
                        if your current page has no sidebar, use the template that has one

                          there is no type “cartwidget” . period.
                          of the bunch of shortcodes you posted above, only this is relevant from what i can see

                          [wppizza type=’cart’ stickycart=’0′ width =’90%’ height=’350′ ]

                          (and it works just fine here)

                          however, if you are using the 2012 theme anyway i don’t understand why you are not using the widget in the first place…?!

                            1: that’s down to your theme and where *you* put it
                            2: there is a scrolling/sticky cart option but that may not be suitable for all themes . if it doesn’t work on your theme, you’ll have to do some css or js depending on your scenario/layout

                              google will only index pages that exist, so unless you actually create that page / those pages, what do you want google to index ?

                              if you only have one page, it will only index one page (and having several links to the same page is not a good idea in the first place)

                                at the moment you’d have to take/copy

                                wppizza/ajax/get-json.php

                                and use the whole bit

                                
                                $options=$this->pluginOptions; 
                                /*
                                you might want to / have to change the above to
                                $options=get_option('wppizza'); 
                                
                                **/
                                global $blog_id;
                                /****************************************************************
                                *	[add / remove item from cart session]
                                ***************************************************************/
                                if(isset($_POST['vars']['type']) && (($_POST['vars']['type']=='add' || $_POST['vars']['type']=='remove' || $_POST['vars']['type']=='removeall' || $_POST['vars']['type']=='increment') && $_POST['vars']['id']!='') ||  $_POST['vars']['type']=='refresh' || $_POST['vars']['type']=='wppizza-update-order'){
                                
                                /**code**/
                                }
                                

                                and pass the relevant variables to it as the whole thing is only only available via ajax

                                one day i might make that whole thing into it’s own class, but for the moment it is what it is

                                  PS , i’ll probably add a more arbitrary way to do this (i.e instead of creating a page and pointing to that one)
                                  but for the moment this is the way it works

                                            that’s paypal’s site.
                                            has nothing to do with me. your customer just gets redirected there

                                            if their site is s*** on mobiles, tell them
