Morning, In the Stripe dashboard payments are listed under various columns, amount, payment method, description etc. At present the Description contains the payment intent value i.e. pi_3OdmiTB5VweLdlB80T4lOjch.
My question is can I use the phocacart order number or some other custom description to differentiate between shop orders and those from other sources?
Thanks
Mike
Hi Mike,
After exploring the Stripe docs I found that the description can be passed to the payment intent data. Probably it is what you are looking for. Will do a few tests to make sure I am right and inform you.
Kind regards,

Hi Dimirijs, that's exactly what I want. Our accounting software is linked to Stripe and we have been categorising transactions by description i'e. shop, membership, etc. if we could get your stripe plugin to send a custom descrition that would b
Mikee fantastic.
It is possible to send custom description. So a new option will be added to a plugin and it will be possible to set the custom text and to use {ORDER_NR} constant to represent Order Number in the text.
A new version of the plugin is planned to be released on the next week.
Kind regards,
Dmitrijs
Hi Dmitrijs
Thanks, that's great news. Thanks for adding that option, it'll be a very useful addition when preparing accounts šš

Hi Mike,
New version has been released, please update. You now should be able to set the custom description in Payment options.
Kind regards,
Dmitrijs
Morning Dimitrijs.
Can I ask is the latest version is for Joomla 4 only or is it compatible with J3 and J4?
Mike
We do not support Joomla 3 for some time already, so the latest is for Joomla 4+. If you are on Joomla 3 then we can try to backport this feature and provide the customised version, but without any guarantee. It won't be released for a public usage.
Kind regards,

I thought so but just wanted to check. Don't worry about J3, this is for the last site thats now moving to Joomla 4. Been using J2store previoulsy but not happy with the time taken to update their component and the cost of each module and plugin so I moved to Phoca Cart. Just working on the staging site now so I'll update the plugin on that first.
Thanks for the work on the update
Mike
J2Store one of the popular e-com extensions. Interesting that you made your move to Phoca Cart and not to other popular extensions like VirtueMart or HikaShop. You found Phoca Cart strong enough in terms of features to beat them :)
From your point of view what Phoca Cart is missing at the moment comparing to other Joomla e-com extensions?
Kind regards,
Dmitrijs
We are a cycling cub of about 1000 members so cost is important to us. Our shop needs are simple and turnover not huge as you might imagine so Hika and Virtuemart are not geared towards our needs. Phoca cart does almost everything we require, the only thing it really needs is monitoring of stock levels and a low stock email sent to the shop admins when stock levels get below a certain number determined by the admins per item.

Hi Mike,
Thank you for your feedback. I am closing this ticket as resolved.
Have a good day.
