Hi Paul,

Since you say order, I'm glad, because that means that the software is working as intended. The OrderTemplateExtender runs twice, BeforeRender and AfterRender. You can use the second parameter in ExtendTemplate, which is  a Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Frontend.TemplateExtenderRenderingState type, to decide when to append your new tags:

if (RenderingState == Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Frontend.TemplateExtenderRenderingState.After)

or

if (RenderingState == Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Frontend.TemplateExtenderRenderingState.After)

But the issue of doubled rendering only applies to loops. Is that the case here also?

it's a loop so it worked

Thanks

No problem:)

Got almost the same problem in step 6.

In step 6 I'm saving some of the order intormation in a file with a timestamp but some times it creates two files. I tried using the same metod as on step 3 but it doesn't work.

The problem is that it doesn't happen all the time.  

Just a thought: It's not that you're double clicking the "accept" link?

Tryed that and it doesn't mather how meny times you press the button.

It must be that it sometimes runs the method twice.

But why?

What object type are you using to save the data? A Notification Subscriber? Could you post your code here?

Im using a OrderTemplateExtender

...if (this.Order.StepNum == 6 && this.User.UserName != "")

}

...

System.Web.UI.Page p = new System.Web.UI.Page();
if (RenderingState == Dynamicweb.eCommerce.Frontend.TemplateExtenderRenderingState.Before)
{
                      
  string _timeStamp = DateTime.Now.ToString();
 _timeStamp = _timeStamp.Replace(" ", "");
 _timeStamp = _timeStamp.Replace("-", "");
 _timeStamp = _timeStamp.Replace(":", "");
 string _filename = Order.ID + _timeStamp + ".csv";
 FileInfo f = new FileInfo(p.Server.MapPath("/Files//Filer/Integration/eCommerce/Order/" + _filename));
 StreamWriter Tex = f.CreateText();
 Tex.WriteLine(_salesOrder.ToString());
 Tex.Write(Tex.NewLine);
 Tex.Close();
}

Hm... If it runs twice, you must get almost, if not pricecely, exact timestamps? What's the time difference?

Btw. what build are you running? We've had reportings about assemblies being loaded twice, but we fixed that a while ago.

yes the timestamps are just a second appart.

it should be the latest build before the one comming this week

One second, that's a lot IMHO.

Have you tried Dynamicweb.Base.w() some text in the extender code? If it prints out twice also, it means that the extender is being run twice. If not, it seems as it's being initiated by two requests.

it prints it tree times every time

Could I ask you to download the latest Application.zip and use the assemblies from this archive in your custom solution?
