I have created a custom Payment module but I could only display the following information in the admin side of Magento
Type of Card
Card Number : xxxx-last 4 digits
Order was placed using USD
But how can I get other details just liek in case pf Paypal like,
Card Validation Status:
Address Validation Status:
Last Transaction ID:
etc. I am getting all these response from my custom payment gateway but I don’t know what function to call or how to display it in the back-end for the store owner to see.
Can any one help me with this? Right now my payment module is doing authorize_capture as the payment action so I have Model/PaymentMethod.php which has function capture(Varien Object payment, amount) to deal with the logic. So can I set the Payment Information from there or do I need to create any other files?
Please let me know.
EDIT: I found partial answer to what I need doing.
But I am not able to override a default admin template file. This link tells to create a Block file which overrides Mage/Payment/Block/Info and set a template in there to be used.
But its not reading it. Can some one tell me the correct way to override an admin template file so that future upgrades don’t overwrite it.
I hope some one must be familiar with this bit now.
it isn’t taking the code from my overriden module Block file. The template file I need to over ride is app/design/adminhtml/default/default/template/payment/default/info.phtml. Using the link mentioned I have already overridden Mage/Payment/Block/Info and wrote my own code but am not able to set and point towards my template. Any Ideas?
Here is a good article by Alan Storm which will show you how to add settings to the backend:
