Disabling returns on front end

[ajensen27]

Anyone know which pieces of code to remove on the front-end to disable all the functionality for customers to return orders?

 

We don't allow most returns but I want to keep it enabled on the backend in case of cancelled orders or the rare instances where we do accept a return. This allows me to replenish the stock without having to go in to the product to increase the amount.

 

Vs 1.5.2

 

Thanks!

PS backoffice - Orders - Merchandise Returns - Enable returns (applies to 1.5.6.2).

 

Update: didn't read carefully.

 

1) remove a link in themes/<theme>/my-account.tpl

2) Add the following to your .htaccess file:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)controller=OrderReturn(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourdomain.com [R=301,L]

Thanks for the reply! I was able to remove the "My merchandise returns" link from both the my account section and the my account block. I also added that code to the .htaccess but I'm still seeing the below on the order history page.

Check themes/<theme>/order-detail.tpl file.

That file did the trick! Thanks!
