A customer noticed that when a guest placed an order, the order confirmation email displayed "Link send Administrator" instead of a functional invoice link. However, when the same email template was used for a status update from the backend, the link worked correctly.
The osCommerce support team explained that this issue occurs because guest accounts do not have access to invoices within an account dashboard. Since guest accounts are hidden and do not function as regular customer accounts, the invoice link cannot be generated.
To resolve this, the support team provided two solutions:
- Convert the guest account into a regular customer account. This would allow access to invoices within the customer's account.
- Instead of displaying "Link send Administrator," the message can be adjusted for clarity. This can be done by navigating to Design and CMS → Translation, finding the LINK_SEND_ADMINISTRATOR key, and editing it.
After implementing the fix, the customer was satisfied with the solution.
