   • DragonApp_track_shipment.xml --> This file copies and modifies the elements we need to the vqcache.
   • DragonApp_track_shipment_theme_Default.xml --> The theme specific file, can be other file depending on the theme you have installed. This file changes the user layout so users can access the tracking information. (Since there are differents layout for each theme, we need different themes).

Demo

Backend End

Login: demo

Password: demo

After login, visit Extensions --> Modules --> DragonApp Track Shipment

If you just installed it, it should look like this:

Input the API key and Username.

If you input the correct credentials, you should notice now the Enabled carriers appear, these carriers are the ones you have activated in your Aftership account, you can modify them here.

The username is very important, tracking links will contain it, for example: https://username.aftership.com/dhl/0123456789 will point to the tracking 123456789 from dhl in your account.

#####In Sales --> Orders --> View --> Order History tab

##FAQ and troubleshooting

• What is the "AfterShip API Key"?

AfterShip is an online service which help you to TRACK and NOTIFY your customer after the package is shipped.
It is very useful as you can monitor ALL the shipments in one place.
The API KEY is used to interact to your Aftership account using the API, so lets say you want to send to Aftership one tracking number, the Key will make us know which account made the request, so que can add it to your account.
Create new Aftership API here, install API, and generate one API Key.

• What is the "AfterShip Username"

The Aftership Username allows your customer to access to the tracking information of your account. So if you have the tracking number 1234567890, you can provide a link like this to the customer and he will be able to access the tracking information: https://yourusername.aftership.com/1234567890.
Create new Aftership Username here.

• Which couriers do you support?
