One-Page Checkout [Support Thread]

[lat9]

I am testing on the latest version of OPC.
I tested on guest checkout using test mode of Authorize.net.

However, one thing I noticed... if I create account after I placed order as "guest."
The newsletter's setting on those new users from OPC checkout is automatically set to HTML-only.

I wonder if this is intentional and whether it is based on OPC settings or the core of Zen Cart settings by default?

Also, I do agree on above comments by chadlly2003 that the OPC could do better if there is no extra steps on pressing "Next" and such.
I do feel it is almost no different using OPC or default Zen Cart checkout as you still have to go through "sections" (in OPC) instead of "pages" (in Zen Cart layout) during checkout process.
I do think the OPC should be simply true one-page and customers are simply just input their information and only button they need to click once they filled in is "Order" like some of big eCommerce websites are doing (customers should NOT have to "Save" or "Next" to continue...) If it has to be done and manage with core files, then it may needed to address with next Zen Cart major update (like in 1.5.7 or ... 2.0?)

You're right; I neglected to provide the TEXT vs HTML email choice when a guest is given the opportunity to create an account.

I've created a GitHub issue to track the change: https://github.com/lat9/one_page_checkout/issues/198
