Transaction ID too long

Hi,

Is there anyway to make the transaction ID shorter. In payment form that we were previously using it is only 7or 8 characters long which is fine to use for a banking ref. In Membership Pro it is way to long to use as the payment ref when doing bank transfer.

Thanks for your time.

Hi Chris

You can edit the code to make it shorter. Please :

1. Open the file components/com_osmembership/model/register.php

2. Find this line of code:

3. Change 16 to 8

After that, it will work as expected

Hi Tuan,

Thanks for that, made the alteration to the register.php file as above but still getting 16 characters.
Is there a second file that can be overriding this?

Thanks,
Chris

That should be the only field. You subscribe for the plan in the frontend and receiving that transaction id, correct?

Tuan

Hi,

Yes adjusted the above file in the backend to 8. Then subscribe to plan in frontend and transaction ID comes in email and it stays at 16 characters. I also tried changing it to (()) like in the payment form component which sends 8 characters and no difference.

Hi Chris

Maybe you should submit a support ticket sending us super admin account of your site and the link to subscription form. I am going to check to see why it happens and get it sorted for you

BTW, what payment method you are using?

Tuan

Will do, and offline payment at this time.
