My Checkout Without Account Mod

[mazinego]

When a customer is checking out with the same email address they used the last purchase, it tells them that the email address they are using is already registered with the site and to login to complete the checkout process. How can they login when they don't have a password to login with?

I am having the same problem. I have re-installed the files, but no luck.

I see COWOA customer's info in both COWOA_account and cusomers_id on PhpMyAdmin.

Can anyone tell me what to do?

TIA

Just to clarify... the first time they checked out, they used "checkout without account"? If they registered the first time they checked out, they will receive the error if they try to checkout without account a second time with the same email. Just want to make sure. Also, do you have a site I can look at?

Hello! I added something to your cart and on the shopping cart contents page... when I click on "checkout", I get the 404 error. I'm not sure if you've done anything else to it since you posted this message because you had said your error was happening when clicking on "checkout without account" on the login page. The error that I just received has nothing to do with this mod.

You have missing pages and/or you still have files from some mod that are messing things up. This mod does not start working from the shopping cart contents page. It starts when you click on "checkout without account". If you clicked on checkout without account before and got a 404 error because mainpage=no_account was not there, that means that your files did not upload correctly during FTP and you should try again (or you uploaded them to the wrong template). Also, I don't recall there being any switch in the admin to change to a one-page checkout, although I am still using version 1.3.6 so I don't know if this is something new in 1.3.7. Are you sure you never installed a mod that has anything to do with logging in or checking out??

Hi - thanks for checking it out and for your reply. You are right. I went back in and found out my FTP program had been goofing up and only sending just short of 1kb or so of each file over to the server. So I had to just delete all the modded overwrite files, and start over. Of course I had them backed up so that was easy enough. The COWOA does work now for me, thanks, but it brought up a new crop of errors. The first one was some "call to action ()_" undefined, on line XX" of tpl_checkout_default.php. So I went into the tpl_checkout_default.php and opened it with a line-numbered notepad program to see the problem was an extra '}' so I got rid of that. Then there was another "call to action ___ undefined" error, this time it had something to dow the PayPal checkout variables listed in the tpl_checkout_default.php file. So since I'm not using PayPal checkout I just commented all that out. Now everything is working except a new problem totally unrelated to this mod... I am using Authorize.net on this site since my client has their payment processor, and so I have that module installed and set to default, but the pay page says "you must select a paynt type to continue", which is weird because I had selecte the ccard button!

Sorry for the weird post above... I spent the night in the hospital waiting room and so am running on no sleep. I must have been feeling dozy because I typed my reply, then copied it because I was logged out, and apparently I pasted it twice. By the time I figured that out it was too late to edit

Hi

I have just installe the COWOA mod on a 1.3.7 cart. I seem to be having some trouble getting it working. When you go to the checkout there is a button missing for creating an account for new customers.

If I go to checkout without account the progress bar has wrapped to the next line for complete order.

If I then put details in and try to continue it asks for company name even though it should not be required. If I add a company name in I get these errors when I continue.

Any help really appreciated. Pulling my hair out with this one.

Hello all me again.

Well for some strange reason this has started working in a fashoin. I went to the shipping modules and the order totals and re set them up and checkout started working. It still requires a company name though.

The problem with the progress bar is still there and the button. The progress bar only shows in IE and not on FF. The button problem is because the button is not present. The location it is looking for it looks very strange. Mayne someone can throw some light on this.

Also maybe I have missed something, but how do you know when the customer has checked out without account. I expected to see a . after the email address in admin, but they all look the same to me. Also I have installed the order status mod. How or/and where does the customer use this ? I expected to see somewhere where the customer can enter email address and order number.

Regards
Laurie

Hi Laurie,
Yes, you missed something. The old version of this mod put a period after the email address in the admin. That is no longer the case with the new version. I don't know all the specifics, but I think that the older version's method was a more "dirty" method of achieving the checkout without account and the period was very necessary. The new version does not require a period after the email address in the db. (author of this mod: please feel free to yell at me if anything I say is incorrect - i sure as hell am no expert!) I believe someone did make some sort of addition to this mod where you can tell which customers signed up. I downloaded it but never implemented it. Its somewhere on this thread.

Hello,

Im using v.1.3.7.1 and im wondering if this mod will work or will have compatibility issues? Also, which one should i use? The "No Account Zen" or the "Optional Account Zen"?

Thank you

Now I have the checkout mod working perfectly except a new problem has come up... I am using Authorize.net on this site since my client has their payment processor, and so I have that module installed and set to default, but the pay page says "you must select a paynt type to continue", which is weird, because I had selected the paypent type!

It wasn't like this before I installed this mod!

Download "No Account" and read the text file. If it doesn't sound like its something you want to do, use optional account.
