netSEO Order Quantity Alert for CS-Cart - Order Quantity Tracking Module in Admin and on Printed Documents

netSEO: Order quantity alert for CS-Cart

netSEO: Order Quantity Alert is an addon for CS-Cart that visually highlights order lines with quantity greater than 1 , both in the admin panel (order detail page) and on the invoice / printed documents . The goal is to reduce operator mistakes when preparing packages (packaging, number of pieces), through a clear signal where the quantity is not 1.

Highlight in admin — order details

On the Orders → order details page (e.g. orders.details ), for each product in the table:

• If the line quantity is 1 — the display remains the standard CS-Cart display, without changes.
• If the quantity is greater than 1 — the value is displayed in a visible badge : bold text, red outline, light background and discreet pulse animation (red) so that the operator immediately notices the “multi-piece” lines.

The implementation uses template hooks and dedicated backend CSS; no changes are made to the core CS-Cart files .

Printed invoice — classic email templates (print invoice)

For the classic Print invoice / order flow that uses the mail templates in the backend ( orders/invoice.tpl etc.), the quantity > 1 is displayed in a black, round dot , with a white, bold number, sized appropriately for printing and PDF (including print-color-adjust for black background on print).

Quantity 1 remains displayed normally, without a dot.

Twig Tax Documents (Invoice order.invoice, Summary order.summary)

If the store uses the new document engine (Fiscal documents, Twig snippets, products_table snippet), the old print templates do not apply. In this case, in the addon settings there is a Documentation tab with:

• clear steps: where to open the document editor and the products_table fragment;
• a copy/paste block with example Twig code (quantity column detection by header or by index), including the .netseo-print-qty-alert style.

The same flow is repeated for Invoice and Order Summary , if both use the same product table type.

License, Addons Manager and Updates

The module depends on netSEO Addons Manager :

• license code in the License section;
• backend verification (including grace period after installation);
• updates through Upgrade Center with netSEO connector (api.cs-cart.ro), just like other netSEO addons.

Translations and settings

The settings interface (License tab, Documentation tab) includes translated labels and tooltips (e.g. Romanian / English) via the addon's .po files, aligned with the CS-Cart convention for SettingsSections and SettingsOptions .

Compatibility

The addon is intended for:

• CS-Cart 4.10.1+ , ULTIMATE and MULTIVENDOR editions;
• required dependency: netSEO Addons Manager ;
• Admin CSS loaded only in the backend, with no impact on the storefront.

Native integration into CS-Cart

netSEO: Order Quantity Alert uses Smarty hook overrides for the product row in the order detail and for the row in the email invoice, plus separate styles (admin vs. print). Without such a module, quantities > 1 appear as a simple number, just like 1, and in the busy warehouse flow the risk of preparing only one package instead of two (or vice versa) increases. This addon adds a consistent visual layer — pulsating red in the admin and black dot in print — and integrated documentation for the Twig variant, so that the same behavior can be reproduced on modern fiscal documents.
