still got no options showing up for shipping besides free
is this just the shipping step page? or shipping/payment/order total page... i've tested for every shipping i could think of so will have to run some things down.. one issue comes to mind is to see if shipping is getting called which builds the list of active shiipping options..
i've had order,php error before... but found it wasn't needed again... deleted the extra calls.. will look into changing to require_once
i'm out of town now so don't have my work station with me to look at.
Re: COWOA (for ZC v1.5.x)
the issue is that only the free shipping shows on the shipping page and the estimate shipping.
Re: COWOA (for ZC v1.5.x)
I've got a client that's "kicking the tires" on the COWOA plugin. He noticed that you can't go through guest-checkout if you already have an account. Is there any way for that functionality to occur (other than deleting all customers' records)?

still looking at this, but so far not getting an error to show up. I'm getting it to show with other shipping options over the set amount and not show when under set amount..

so the customer with an account doesn't want to log in! I think this version of COWOA only has an off switch.. The one I've been playing with and running on my own site has an only COWOA switch which totally hides the account side of Zen Cart. Also an admin switch to change accounts to COWOA and back to Standard..
I think it would be possible to change the logic of COWOA to make it work. Currently not something in COWOA. We use the customer email address to figure out the user ID for both types of accounts and added password for the standard account. So some of the same rules would still need to be in place so when the account holder do login, they can see past orders.
Re: COWOA (for ZC v1.5.x)
twas settings. I had to look up how it was supposed to be done for later versions of zen cart. The settings for free shipping were different and working. So it wasn't the COWOA.

It's not that they don't want to log in; the site's products are seasonal and the returning customers, many times, don't remember their password and can't "find" the password-forgotten emails to actually log in.
Re: COWOA (for ZC v1.5.x)
I started playing with the beta release - having not touched anybody else's version in a long time. I just recently made my version responsive - and ran into an issue with the beta release. I don't see how to create an issue on github - it's not a code thing but a usability issue that needs discussing. Shall I mention it here?

That's why I changed my password reset system...

It's always a pain degrading the template back to the basic, but the idea is that it would make it easier for the user to upgrade or match their site. With the new responsive basic adds another one to the list.. If I give up and do what I know, would that make it hard for a non-coder to modify and match their site! Perhaps a good discussing in a new thread for it's something to think about in all mods that modify template forms.

No.. any discussions for the beta version need to be logged on Github.. not sure why you don't see the issues tab.. it's in the same location as any other Github repo: https://github.com/DivaVocals/zen_COWOA/issues
Re: COWOA (for ZC v1.5.x)
First of all thanks for the work on getting this going for 1.5.5. COWOA (guest checkout) is a great needed feature.
I have a question/request that I have brought up before. I would love to see the possibility to allow guest checkout even when there is already an existing registered account for this email. Is this technically possible without screwing up the zencart customer or order db's?
Currently you can not use the guest checkout with an already registered email. Say a returning registered customer comes back to our site and just wants to do a guest checkout this time, won't work. Reality is many customers are not remembering the correct password and dealing with the password reset function is more cumbersome to them than simply go with the guest checkout. So they go with guest checkout only to find out they can't because they have already a registered account with us with this email. Now frustration sets in and we ether loose the sale or I get frustrated calls from them. Some try the reset password function but the reset email lands in spam too often leading them to multiple tries at the reset function, more frustration sets in.
We IT folks might think this is not big deal, just use another email or go to your spam folder and look a bit harder.... well your average site visitor is not always that computer savvy.
