want 2 login pages - one for check out, one for login

[vandiermen]

I made a zen cart v.1.3.7 for someone and they did not like the registration with a login at the top at check out, so I was going to ask how would I make 2 login pages - I want to make one for when someone clicks on login and another for when someone gos through check out, but as I was writing this I made it my self which I found not to hard as I know the coding...

If any one else wants to do this

1.
Copy:
\includes\templates\template_default\templates\tpl_login_default.php
Create:
\includes\templates\template_default\templates\tpl_login2_default.php


2.
Backup and Edit:
\includes\templates\template_default\templates\tpl_login_default.php

Remove
<?php echo zen_draw_form('login', zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, 'action=process', 'SSL')); ?>
<fieldset>
<legend>Returning customer Login </legend>
<label class="inputLabel" for="login-email-address"><?php echo ENTRY_EMAIL_ADDRESS; ?></label>
<?php echo zen_draw_input_field('email_address', '', zen_set_field_length(TABLE_CUSTOMERS, 'customers_email_address', '40') . ' id="login-email-address"'); ?>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<label class="inputLabel" for="login-password"><?php echo ENTRY_PASSWORD; ?></label>
<?php echo zen_draw_password_field('password', '', zen_set_field_length(TABLE_CUSTOMERS, 'customers_password') . ' id="login-password"'); ?>
<div class="buttonRow back important"><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN, '', 'SSL') . '">' . 'Forgot your password?' . '</a>'; ?></div>
<div class="buttonRow forward"><?php echo zen_image_submit(BUTTON_IMAGE_LOGIN, BUTTON_LOGIN_ALT); ?></div>
<br class="clearBoth" />
</fieldset>

Add (to where you removed the above) :
<div><p align="right"><a href="http://www.yourdomain.com/index.php?main_page=login2">login</a> </p>
</div>

***and edit to suit your check out needs

change the word BUTTON_IMAGE_SUBMIT to BUTTON_IMAGE_CONTINUE_CHECKOUT

3.
Copy the folder
\includes\modules\pages\login\

Past and make the folder
\includes\modules\pages\login2\

You may or may not need to do the following:
Edit:
\includes\templates\template_default\templates\tpl_login2_default.php

Change:
<div class="buttonRow back important"><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN, '', 'SSL') . '">' . TEXT_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN . '</a>'; ?></div>

To
<div class="buttonRow back important"><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN, '', 'SSL') . '">' . 'Forgot your password?' . '</a>'; ?></div>


I hope I did not forget anything...

I would not do this with any other version but V.1.3.7
the above procedure worked for me but I would not do this unless you know what you are doing,
...always backup the documents you are editing
