Disabling Customer Registration Details?

[phn0rd]

Hello Everyone,

I'm new here, and to Zen Cart as a whole. I'm in the process of trying to help my friend setup his website, http://www.individualizeit.com

The only method of payment he plans on accepting is Google Checkout. He plans to allow customers to Sign Up for accounts at his site - but only for the purposes of applying discounts and to be added to a newsletter.

As such, the only two fields that he would like to request upon registration are "Company Name" and "Email address." There is no need for any address information for shipping or billing information to be collected as he will not be using them - the checkout process will happen through Google Checkout exclusively.

How would I go about doing this? Is there a setting somewhere in the Admin area? And if not, what PHP files / other settings would be relevant for these changes?

I am a programmer and have no problem going in and adjusting code if need be to get the job done. However I am new to the Zen Cart system, so I'd a) like to know if there's a cleaner way to get the job done, and b) would like some idea as to where in the Zen Cart library I would go to make said changes.

Thanks a lot!

- Andy

It is not so easy but many have desired this and I believe that there is a 3rd party module COWA or Checkout Without An Account floating around somewhere
It is not in the contributions but you can search for posts about it

Well, that's not *exactly* what I'm looking for. I've already enabled Google Checkout without an account, and disabled the other methods of checkout on my own.

What I'm looking for now is a way to modify what information Zen Cart requests from new users upon registration. I can poke around in the code as I mentioned if there are no easy ways to do this - but if there is I wanted to check into it here. I see, for instance, that I can disable it from requesting a state in the Admin section.
