My Checkout Without Account Mod

I'm using 1.3.8a and have the following MODs installed:

Column layout
COWOA
InternetSecure

When an order is placed and gets to the payment page, it shows 4 placeholders for the credit card types but only shows "My Image" in all four of them.

Not sure how to fix this.
Please see attached

Problem solved.
The answer is on page 147 of manual. :smartalec:

Does anyone know how to show the currency symbol by the dollar amount at the checkout?

I need to show not only the dollar amount but also the currency that it's being charged it when the customer goes through the checkout.

I'm using COWOA and have also installed the InternetSecure mod and that's who needs to see this at the checkout.

Can we show a currency symbol next to the dollar amount?
I'm surprised that is not a toggle in the admin somewhere.

Thanks
Robert

This needs to be posted in a section other than the COWOA board where someone is more likely to help you. The only difference between COWOA and regular checkout is one page and that page has no dollars amounts on it... its the name, address, etc. page.

Tried that, thanks.
Maybe a more general board might work.

Got this fixed by modifying the Localization >currency module and putting US$ as the "Symbol left:" instead of just $.
This will then also work for any currency.

Thanks to the person who suggested that. Worked like a charm.

I would like to get back to the split screen login to give the customer a choice of if they want to create an account or use the COWOA to place their order.
I read a post in this forum about how a slight code change in one of the files would turn off/bypass that split screen and go straight to the COWOA page which it's currently doing and working fine.

I can't find the post to see how to re-edit that file and go back to the split screen checkout.

I still have the splitscreen option turned on in Admin, just the checkout process to point me to the original file again.

Thanks.

Hi,

I am using Zen 1.3.8 and have the COWA mod installed. I am trying to remove the options for email formats (Text only or HTML).

I successfully removed this option with the create_account.php file, but I am having trouble with the no_account.php file.

I am commenting out this line in includes/modules/my_template/no_account.php:

if (!isset($email_format)) $email_format = (ACCOUNT_EMAIL_PREFERENCE == '1' ? 'HTML' : 'TEXT');

Any help is always greatly appreciated.

Hi MC,

Please note: a recent client of mine asked for the Newsletter/Email type to be removed from registration process, which all worked okay until ZC emailed out the first 'Order Confirmation' which went out as text only.

ZC requires a value to be passed to the dbase for at least 'email type' if it doesn't the dbase has no value inserted and when ZC sends out any email it checks for what email type is set and since there is no value in the dbase it defaults to sending text emails, therefore no pretty html templated emails.

To get around this you could turn off Newsletters in 'admin->configuration->customer details' via 'Show Newsletter Checkbox' and then change the english defined for the label 'Newsletter and Email Details' in /includes/languages/english.php to perhaps 'Email Preference'

or

hide the html from registration form altogther using css, and preset the radio to 'HTML' option; that way at least its setting a value in dbase.

regards,
Matt

Just installed this and it works splendidly. But only after I manually installed the files.

Simple question, how do I go about altering the layout between vertical and horizontal? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Hi Matt,

Thanks so much for your help on this.
I disabled the newsletter option in admin->configuration->customer details. The COWA form cleared the newsletter option, but the "sign-up for account" form did not.

Nonetheless I removed the HTML and Text-only options for the COWA form by going to includes/templates/mytemplate/templates/tpl_modules_no_account.php and commenting out:

<?php echo zen_draw_radio_field('email_format', 'HTML', ($email_format == 'HTML' ? true : false),'id="email-format-html"') . '<label class="radioButtonLabel" for="email-format-html">' . ENTRY_EMAIL_HTML_DISPLAY . '</label>' .  zen_draw_radio_field('email_format', 'TEXT', ($email_format == 'TEXT' ? true : false), 'id="email-format-text"') . '<label class="radioButtonLabel" for="email-format-text">' . ENTRY_EMAIL_TEXT_DISPLAY . '</label>'; ?>

That worked perfect. I am still working on the create accounty page and will keep an update on my progress. :smile:

Hi there... dumb question here.
I am in the process of installing the COWOA module in our zen cart (v1.3.8) and I get the concept of replacing YOUR_TEMPLATE name folder with the template name you are actually using in your site (I'm using the default green one) but some forlders have the "freetemplate2" name.... do I also replace the name of the tamplate I am using there?

thanks,..

Do not worry about "freetemplate2". What happened was that I was hosting the download for COWOA on my site and when my site got hacked, I accidentally deleted the download when I was in the process of cleaning up my files. Someone else on these boards was smart enough to keep a copy of the download and was nice enough to send it to me so that I could continue hosting it. I assume "freetemplate2" was the name of their template because if you look at the files, they are the same as the COWOA files. You do not have to upload the "freetemplate2" files. It wont hurt anything if you do, it will just take up a little space. At some point, when I find the time, I will go through and remove that from the download.

Thanks for the reply.... Now it makes sense...

I'm pretty sure I've uploaded all the files. I've installed the patch and turned on split-login..but I can't see the checkout without account on the login page.

I'm a bit confused about the freetemplate2 folders though. I've only just installed Zen Cart and I've not made any modifications until this one..so do I need to upload those files? I've uploaded them..but surely the standard green template needs the freetemplate2 folders uploading to it? Argh I'm so confused.:huh:

Furthermore, you will not see the checkout without account option at the login screen. You will only see the COWA option at check out.

The first step of checkout is the login page. It is where you are taken when you click on "checkout", unless you are already logged in, in which case you are taken to main_page=checkout_shipping.

COWOA will only appear when there are items in the cart. If there are items in the cart and you still do not see COWOA, the number one reason is an FTP error when you uploaded your files. Reinstall.

How can I remove the side boxes from this mod during the checkout process. I found a hack to remove the side boxes during checkout for the default zencart, but it does not work when checking out without an account, please advise.

I wonder if any had used COWOA on 1.3.6 then upgrade to 1.3.8. Is there anything need to take note of or problems will encounter?
