Updated author UID for nodes purchased anonymously

I'm changing this to an appropriate feature request and marking it as postponed for consideration in a later version of the module. It's a good idea though:

Update nodes purchased anonymously through UC Node Checkout to the proper UID for the user created during checkout.

Typo fix.

This sounds great. I wanted to just add my vote and encouragement for considering this feature request again in the future. I'm a big fan of Node Checkout. It is perfectly suited for what it was intended to do and does it well. I also think that it has great potential to become a robust solution for a variety of use cases.

The feature requested here would allow greater usage of the module outside of the usage of the more event/registration/data form collection aspect. I've used and/or tested usage of this module for other things, but I also seem to get some interesting projects in the "non-standard" eCommerce category.

Thanks for reviewing the request that was made earlier and for your work on eCommerce solutions in general.

I have a fair number of conference sites that I maintain and this functionality would be very helpful. Does anyone have an idea of what would be a good bounty amount for this request? I am willing to pitch int get it addressed.

This is actually possible to do already without a patch, requires conditional statement.

1. Go To -> Store Admin -> Conditional Action -> Add Predicate
2. Trigger -> Customer Completes Checkout -> Click Save and move onto Conditions
3. Conditions -> This is area is optional, you may want to make this available for specific products -> Click Actions
4. Under Actions -> Select "Custom PHP Code" from the Drop-Down and put this in:

if (isset($order)) {
  foreach ($order->products as $product) {
    if (isset($product->data['node_checkout_nid'])) {
      $node = node_load($product->data['node_checkout_nid']);
      $node->uid=$account->uid;
       node_save($node); 
    }
  }
}

Save your work and all should be good to go!

Good luck!

#5 didn't work for me. The created node author is still anonymous.

update: It did work when I took out the conditional I was using.

#5 Works for me, thanks for sharing.

Hi,

For some reason I can not find out why the above shared CA (conditional action) is not working in "UC Node Checkout 6.x-2.0-beta8".

I have even place it in the condition and in the action section of the predicate without luck.

Also I have play with modifications like:

  if (isset($order)) {
    foreach ($order->products as $product) {
      if (isset($product->data['node_checkout_nid'])) {    
        $nid = $product->data['node_checkout_nid'];
        $uid =  $order->uid;
        db_query("UPDATE {node} SET uid = %d WHERE type = 'CONTENT-TYPE' AND nid = %d", $uid, $nid);
      }
    }
  }

What am I missing? It seems like if some other function is been executed after mine setting the user back to anonymous, but I can not tell which one.

Thank you,
Emil

Hi,

I case someone need a solution while the issue is solved, here is my solution:

<?php
/*
 *	Implements hook_nodeapi();
 */
 
function MY-CUSTOM-MODULE_nodeapi(&$node, $op, $a3 = NULL, $a4 = NULL) {
  switch ($op) {
    case 'presave':
      if ($node->type == 'CONTENT-TYPE') {
        //Get the user that order the node as the node author
        if ($node->uid == 0) {
        $uid = db_result(db_query("SELECT o.uid FROM uc_orders o LEFT JOIN content_type_registration r ON o.order_id = r.field_CONTENT-TYPE_order_id_value WHERE r.nid = %d", $node->nid));
        $node->uid = intval($uid);
        }
      }
    break;
  }
}
?>

Thank you,
Emil

#5 works fine with the current 6.x-2.x-dev

Nice thread here. I was wondering about node purchase anonymity myself. Thanks to emiliacosta for the solution!

Sorry, I'm new at this. Where would I put this code in #9? Do I have to create a module, or can I put something in template.php? Thanks!

How would I do this in D7?

Just wanted to join spyderpie here and ask if anybody knows how to accomplish this in D7?

I'm getting pretty desperate for a way of doing this before my site goes live... Anybody with some node checkout skills that could help.... please!?

for D7:
Event: Customer completes checkout
Condition: none
Action: Execute custom php code

if (isset($order)) {
  foreach ($order->products as $product) {
    if (isset($product->data['node_checkout_nid'])) {
      $node = node_load($product->data['node_checkout_nid']);
      $node->uid=$order->uid;
       node_save($node); 
    }
  }
}
