Ubercart – Mask credit card number on review page

Posted on August 2nd, 2009 in ubercart | No Comments »

 

We use Ubercart for most of our basic and complex e-commerce requirements.

Recently, our client required that the CC number should not be displayed in full on the final review order page.  After a lot of Googling this what we finally did:

1. In the file:  sites/all/modules/ubercart/payment/uc_credit/uc_credit.module
2. inside funtion uc_payment_method_credit() find this line of code at around line number 521 case ‘cart-review’
3. In this case statement you will find a line like this:
   $review[] = array(‘title’ => t(‘Card Number’), ‘data’ => uc_credit_display_number($arg1->payment_details['cc_number']));
4. uc_credit_display_number() function takes a second paramter called mask (by default it is FALSE). Pass TRUE as this second parameter. So, now your code should look like this:
   $review[] = array(‘title’ => t(‘Card Number’), ‘data’ => uc_credit_display_number($arg1->payment_details['cc_number'], TRUE));

Thats it!
On your review page the credit card number should be masked showing only the last for digits.

Steps to Embed Google Maps in Drupal Site

Posted on July 9th, 2009 in Drupal | 4 Comments »

 

The Embed Google Maps module and Gmap block module provides a convenient way to embed Google Map into your Drupal site.

Gmap block module enables site admins to create blocks that containing a Google Map. Each map is highly configurable which contain multiple locations, created separately and are therefore reusable in multiple blocks. Each location is created by adding an address, and per location admins can specify whether or not a marker should be created, if an info window should be used and if a directions form should be used.

Gmap block module uses the GMap API version 3 which is exponentially faster than it’s predecessor. Version 3 also doesn’t require an API key.
Embed Google Maps allows CCK field for embedding Google Maps into nodes. You can embed any kind of Google Maps including driving directions and personal maps. You can also type a search query into the field and display the search results in the field.
These two are independent modules and can be enabled, configured separately.
