FAQ

Q: Why do I only see the first status update on the Packingslip and Invoice pages?
A: This is a configurable behavior of Zen Cart. If you wish to see all the updates on either of these pages, go to Admin > Configuration > Shipping/Packaging. Then set "Display Order Comments on Admin Invoice" to "2" to show all order status history updates on the invoice, and/or set "Display Order Comments on Admin Packing Slip" to "2" to show all order status history updates on the packing slip.
