Set a Default Address format. For better formatted address labels/slips
When an order is imported it doesn't seem to have the standard OpenCart address format set (normally based on country, but I would settle for a 'default'). e.g.
{firstname} {lastname}
{company}
{address1}
{address2}
{city}
{zone}
{postcode}
Because this isn't set when an order is pulled, address labels packing slips etc. display the address in the wrong format.
Available from version 806.

Adam - thank you for that link. Very useful, however, I wanted the address format to be recorded in the database so that it is used on all the default forms etc as well as my packing address slips without having to modify files and worry about future versions changing. Seeing you had done it gave me the push I needed to do this the way I'd like. I'll upload my vqmod to the thread you posted

Its a pretty simple change to the openbay file that inserts the address format at the time the order is created/pulled from ebay.
Thanks very much for your help. -

If this solves the problem where customers details don't import correctly if they have used non-standard or unexpected formatting of their names. eg Customer enters "A. Name" on ebay. Openbay only imports "A" or if customer enters "Firstname Surname" (more than one space separating firts & last) openbay only imports "Firtsname" Then this would be even more useful.
