ce-1.7.0.2shipment-trackingshipping

I want get tracking info, which is used in popup.phtml.
In trackingcontroller.php tracking info load by hash.

 $shippingInfoModel = Mage::getModel('shipping/info')->loadByHash($this->getRequest()->getParam('hash'));

How to load tracking info using tracking number?

Best Answer

One of the easiest ways would be to extend the shipping/info model with your own extension, add a method to load it from tracking number without the hash. You can also look at Mage_Shipping_Helper_Data::decodeTrackingHash() and see how to build the hash yourself.

I believe the intent behind the hash is to stop people from fishing for shipping info on orders/shippments that are not related to them.
