can you de-activate and re-activate it once and then go to plugins and check if it now shows as being updatable please ?

no you haven’t
if i go to http://www.broncossandwiches.com it’s still v4.5.1.1

as of version 4.5.2 this should now be fixed (alongside some other minor tweaks)

>authorize.net transaction id, correct?.

yes

>get transaction id without modifying your plugin?.
you can do that as described/coded above without modifying things

however, that gateway – although working from what i can see – is quite old now and could be updated in a couple of places anyway. when I do this , i could easily also put an action hook in there that passes on the tx id with which you can do as you like

just thinking out loud for a sec, i would probably apply the same style that the containing div uses to the .wppizza-cart-fixed class for starters and see what happens then (would probably have to mess around a bit more, but might give you some ideas/basis)

just another bit of a hint (while i ‘m at it ) maybe my comment here regarding “wppizza-cart-fixed” might help too somewhat

>How do I do this?

wppizza->layout

sticky/scolling” cart settings [if used] -> Distinct CSS Background Colour when…

ignoring that fact that i works just fine on many themes that have a “normal” layout where it doesn’t go higher than its surrounding container (try twentytwelve and you’ll see that it is never further up than the top of the sidebar) i will just not spend any more time on this sticky cart thing as it’s a losers game and will never work on all layouts. (not even thinking about responsive layouts which have their own requirements)

if it works as is for someone, fine. if it doesn’t you have to find your own implementation for your particular theme

i’m not really suggesting anything as such.

the main problem is, that i don’t really know anything about CIM and just have to go by some documentation/links i have been able to dig up somewhere. So if you *know* that these two can happily live together/independently, maybe the following is something that helps

after every executed order the following action runs

wppizza_on_order_executed

passing on the order id. so perhaps this sort of thing (?):

add_action( 'wppizza_on_order_executed', 'my_cim_function');
function my_cim_function($orderId){
	global $wpdb;
	$orderDetails = $wpdb->get_row("SELECT * FROM " .$wpdb->prefix . "wppizza_orders WHERE id='".(int)$orderId."' AND initiator='anet' ");	
	
	$transaction_id=$orderDetails->transaction_id;
	$transaction_details=maybe_unserialize($orderDetails->transaction_details);
	
	/*
		the above two vars hold the - you guesses it - transaction id and all transaction details returned from auth.net
		
		maybe you can now do something with this regrading CIM ?
	*/
	
	
}

does that help perhaps ?

[edit 19-Jan-2015:] just for reference – the above can be simplified a bit . please see here

ha, so after all of this , is what we are talking about simply that that client of yours wants a CIM implemntation of the authorize.net gateway , rather than the SIM one ?

(or am i just really thick here…)

reading through this:
http://community.developer.authorize.net/t5/Integration-and-Testing/Which-method-to-use-AIM-SIM-CIM-DPM/td-p/16638

you apparently cannot combine the two (but admittedly i never had anything to do with CIM implementations )
