Disable newsletter selection?

hello! On the page where they create a new account is there a way to disable the Phone Number requirement box and also on the bottom where it says Newsletter and Email Details.. is there a way to get rid of Newsletter (I don't want to scare people off by thinking they will get a newsletter) or maybe getting rid of that whole thing. I think people will click Text only anyways.. thank you!

The Admin/ Customers details don't have an option for that.

Re: Disable newsletter selection?

Yes, absolutely it will be a little messy at first. There is a learning curve with every new software/application. It is no disrespect to those learning it, or the ones that wrote the program either.

hello...
try going to the admin area configuration > customer details. you can turn a lot of questions on/off in that configuration area.

on another note, you can google your question and often times it will give better results in these forums than using the built-in search, fyi.

Re: Disable newsletter selection?

another thing to keep in mind ... what's simple to a marketing specialist managing a store... may be messy and out of control to a coder.

So we do our best to create an easy to manage system that controls what is needed by your average store owner.

Try the custom add-on section by clicking "Free Software Addons" Above, then search for your feature.

Beyond that, custom code is necessary. and can be experimental and expensive, as with any custom e-commerce store.

I don't see that information there. Where eles can I go to edit this info?

Also How can I edit the "Newsletter and Email Details" to just Email Details in the Login/Register Page? Thank you!

find "tpl_modules_create_account.php" in /Your_Template/templates/
add code:

<!-- bof Disable Newsletter --> <?php $ACCOUNT_NEWSLETTER = false; if (ACCOUNT_NEWSLETTER == 'true') { ?>

before Newsletter code section.

I tried to figure out through admin but it did not work for me
