My Checkout Without Account Mod

[na641]

Hi guys. Love the module and was hoping to get a little help customizing and figuring it out.

First of all, the little div that displays the sale progress (shows the five steps with the arrow above it), is that supposed to integrated with the module or do i have to add this manually? I ask because i've installed the module but i don't see it. (this may be my fault as i have a pretty customized theme with a lot of elements hidden)

Secondly and most important, i was hoping to get some help customizing the process, particularly removing a step or two. For example, the store i'm setting up only has one item and one method for shipping, so i would like to remove the shipping page somehow. is there a way to do this?

Other than that, are there any other pages that can be easily removed/merged? Like billing and payment pages.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Not sure if anyone else has ran into this problem.

I can purchase and create and account, but when I logout and try to log back in it doesn't recognize the email address. I even went to have the password sent to me and it still doesn't recognize the email address.

This is the error I get.

Error: Sorry, there is no match for that email address and/or password

The email address is in the admin.

OK, I tried setting up an account with my work email address. Seemed to work fine this morning. Not sure what was going on. I did toggle the
recreate sessions, maybe that helped. I just purchased an item from the store and it seems to be working fine.

[FONT=Arial Narrow][FONT=&quot]Hi,

Just stumbled across this mod, and noticed it’s very similar in nature to what I’ve done with the checkout process. At the moment, I am in the final steps of finishing my webstore. In fact, I only need to customize the checkout process before I can test and go live.[/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=Arial Narrow][FONT=&quot]Anyway, I have a few important questions, but let me explain my method first. For reference, you can visit http://www.brainbulbrecords.com/store and see what I’ve done so far.[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial Narrow][FONT=&quot]
First off, I’m using PayPal Express Checkout, and nothing else. I’ve removed all links to login and create account. This includes the checkout button on the shopping cart page. This of course forces customers to go through the PayPal Express option, with no option for creating an account.[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial Narrow][FONT=&quot]
So at this point, I just need to figure out how to suppress the Welcome email and add a mod that allows a customer to check order status w/o logging in (one of the add-ons to this mod).[/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=Arial Narrow][FONT=&quot]Question is, can this be done, perhaps using parts of this mod?[/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=Arial Narrow][FONT=&quot]Again, I have not finished my store, so there may be some things I’ve missed.[/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=Arial Narrow][FONT=&quot]Sorry if I'm just way off base (or off topic).

Thanks,

C[/FONT][/FONT]

find craftzombies post in this thread #205 At the bottom of the box you will see the No Account Zen. Clicking on that link will download her mod and inside you will see how she addressed the emails sent.

This is my perfered mod as I do not wish to have customers log into an account.

^ Thanks, I actually already went and did something like this. I just configured PPEC to not create an account, and edited the email files to not send a link to track orders. I'm pretty much done! I've already tested, and bought multiple times using the same PayPal address. Just have to add some more products.

[chrisareas]

It would be nice if there were a self contained track order module that only required an email address and order number!

Hey guys,

I'm sorry for my absence here. Between school and a few other things I've been pretty run down. I've got finals yet to contend with. I think I've fallen out of phase with Zen a little too because I hit a roadblock with a new manufacturer that's set me back a few months.

Until I'm all done, I'm adding my e-mail to the wiki in the links section. If you've got a question that's not being answered, please feel free to e-mail me. I do respond regularly.

On that note, Boggled, I wanted to make sure that you got my response.

Thanks much,
Joe

I'm just about to install this contr. but find that I'm unsure what is meant in Step One of the install: Go through all directories and change all "YOUR TEMPLATE" directory names to the name of your actual template.

I'm using the classic template and have simply modified the style sheet to suit, so do I need to change anything?

This question shows that you really should take a step back and learn more about the basics of zen-cart. We all had to do it, look in the top right under tutorials/FAQ and search and read up on templates also it would be a good idea to buy the book if you haven't done that. Not making fun of you here, we all had to do it and I recommend that you do it or later you are going to have to fix things and it will take longer. Good luck
