Magento Version: 1.5.0.1 I’m not sure when this feature was added. It’s there in 1.5.0.1 and might be in previous version. The phtml template file for your system emails are located in app/locale/en_US/template/email/ However, you don’t want to edit these files. Instead, go to System -> Transactional Emails This UI [...]
astormMagento Version: 1.4.2 I’ve found that most of my route based 404 problems in Magento can be traced a misnamed controller file and/or class. Adding some debugging to the standard router’s _validateControllerClassName method often point to the problem. In 1.4.2 you can find this file here.

astormThere is no sure method except sales_order_save_after, but generally I tend to use sales_model_service_quote_submit_after. It covers opc, api and adminhtml (but not multiaddress). sales_convert_quote_address_to_order covers all, but I don’t like it.

astormWhile America threw on its eating pants and combed the Thursday circulars for deals, John Gruber spent Thanksgiving preparing to unveil his regular expression for finding URLs in arbitrary text.
astormThere's a long held bit of conventional wisdom that says you don't want to parse HTML with regular expressions. While it's a great way to learn regular expressions, it's trivially easy to write something that's only going to work correctly on a subset of
astormI've been fiddling with this design in my off-hours, and while I've never been 100% happy with it I was sick of dealing with a few of the limitation the old design presented. For example, implementing your own CSS Drop Shadows were all the
