How to delete Magento order programmatically

Unfortunately, there is no way in Magento to delete the orders from Magento store.
You can only process and set status as "Cancelled" of these orders but you can’t really delete those orders from your Magento store.
In order to delete these orders, you have to log in to your PhpmyAdmin and run some queries to get rid of those orders.

Delete a single order:

You need to run the following query on your database:

  set @increment_id='00000111';
  select @order_id:=entity_id from prefix_sales_order_entity where increment_id=@increment_id;
  delete from prefix_sales_order_entity where entity_id=@order_id or parent_id=@order_id;
  delete from prefix_sales_order where increment_id=@increment_id;
 
In the above example, we deleted order '#00000111'. Generally people use prefix to database tables, so change the "prefix_" in the above query with the prefix you have chosen for your store.

Delete all Magento orders:

You need to run the following query on your database:

Enable template path hint in Magento

To enable magento path hint for your magento website

Login into admin section and go to System->Configuration->Advanced->Developer

Inside this, click on "Debug" option.

If the Current Configuration Scope is "Default" (left top), you will be not able to set template path hints for your magento website.

So you have to select the magento website from the dropdown and then change the template Path Hints to "yes" .

Now your template path hint has been enabled. You can view template path hint on the frontend of your website.

if some how due to cache you are not getting the path hint.

Then go to System->Cache management and "flush" or "refresh" the cache.

Magento: Difference between order states and statuses

If you are building website in Magento, you may have noticed that there are two columns insales_flat_order table which are confusing. These are state and status. You might think what is the difference between these two, both having same meaning.

Well, this is not the case. They both are different. State is used by magento to tell if the order is new, processing, complete, holded, closed, canceled, etc.; while Statuses are the one that YOU would be defining at the backend in System -> Order Statuses. Magento displays order STATUSES and not STATES in the backend order detail page to let you know which status is assigned as per your mapping. Remember, multiple statuses can be mapped with one state, while vice versa is not possible.

Consider an example, your customer places an order as Cash on Delivery, you will need something like COD_Pending as the order status so that you know it is not yet paid. Magento will have state new for this, which makes you unpredictable of what kind of transaction is this, COD or Prepaid. The STATUS can be anything, as you define, for your understanding; while STATE is something which Magento needs to understand, internally.

In short, Magento uses order state internally for processing order, whereas order status are used by store owners to understand the exact order flow where one state can be assigned to multiple statuses.

To understand this in detail, have a look at this

How to Override controller in magento / Override controller’s action in magento

Requirement : Some times you may run into situation where you want to override the core functionality of Magento core controllers. So in this case, The best practise is override the controller then override actions or add new actions for custom requirement.

For example you want to override OnepageController.php file and overwride indexAction.

In this example my custom module name space is “MyBlog” and i am going to overwride indexAction Mage_Checkout_OnepageController

Base File Path : app/code/core/Mage/Checkout/controllers/OnepageController.php

To Do the same we have to follow bellow steps.

Step1: We need to create a custom module

File Path : app/etc/modules/

File Name: MyBlog_Checkout.xml

File Content:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <MyBlog_Checkout>
            <active>true</active>
            <codePool>local</codePool>
        </MyBlog_Checkout>
    </modules>
</config>

Step2: Now we have to create bellow files in our custom module

File Path: app/code/local/MyBlog/Checkout/etc/config.xml

Bellow is content for config.xml file

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
     <modules>
       <MyBlog_Checkout>
         <version>0.0.1</version>
       </MyBlog_Checkout>
     </modules>

    <frontend>
        <routers>
            <checkout>
                <args>
                    <modules>
                        <MyBlog_Checkout before="Mage_Checkout">MyBlog_Checkout</MyBlog_Checkout>
                    </modules>
                </args>
            </checkout>
        </routers>
    </frontend>
</config>

Bellow is content for OnepageController.php

File Path : app/code/local/MyBlog/Checkout/controllers/OnepageController.php

<?php
 
require_once 'Mage/Checkout/controllers/OnepageController.php';
class MyBlog_Checkout_OnepageController extends Mage_Checkout_OnepageController {

     public function indexAction()
    {
        echo "Great! You are in MyBlog checkout controller section";
        exit;
    }

}
?>

Create Catalog Price Rule Programmatically in Magento

Here, you will see how to create Catalog Price Rule in Magento through code.

Catalog Rules are applied on products before they are added to the cart.

To create a Catalog Price Rule from Admin Panel, we go to Promotions -> Catalog Price Rules and select Add New Rule.

Basically, there are three main parts for Catalog Price Rule, i.e. Rule Information, Conditions, and Actions.

Here is the code to create Catalog Price Rule. In this code example, I have created Catalog Price Rule with the following information:-

- The rule is applied to particular product with the particular SKU (in our case: ‘chair’)
- The rule is applied as Fixed Amount Discount To certain amount (in our case: 20) of currency amount

$name = "My Catalog Price Rule"; // name of Catalog Price Rule
$websiteId = 1;
$customerGroupId = 2;
$actionType = 'to_fixed'; // discount to fixed amount
//(other options are: by_fixed, by_percent, to_percent)
$discount = 20; // discount amount
$sku = 'chair'; // product sku

$catalogPriceRule = Mage::getModel('catalogrule/rule');

$catalogPriceRule->setName($name)
                 ->setDescription('')
                 ->setIsActive(1)
                 ->setWebsiteIds(array($websiteId))
                 ->setCustomerGroupIds(array($customerGroupId))
                 ->setFromDate('')
                 ->setToDate('')
                 ->setSortOrder('')
                 ->setSimpleAction($actionType)
                 ->setDiscountAmount($discount)
                 ->setStopRulesProcessing(0);

$skuCondition = Mage::getModel('catalogrule/rule_condition_product')
                    ->setType('catalogrule/rule_condition_product')
                    ->setAttribute('sku')
                    ->setOperator('==')
                    ->setValue($sku);

try {
    $catalogPriceRule->getConditions()->addCondition($skuCondition);
    $catalogPriceRule->save();
    $catalogPriceRule->applyAll();
} catch (Exception $e) {
    Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->addError(Mage::helper('catalog')->__($e->getMessage()));
    return;
}

A new Catalog Price Rule with the name “My Catalog Price Rule” has been created. You can view the rule from Promotions -> Catalog Price Rules in admin.
