Guest Checkout

When an unregistered guest adds items to their cart and goes to checkout they are directed to the login page, then the create account page. I would like to take them directly to the create account page bypassing the login page. I can't see to find where to do this in the Admin and I can't find the link in my files.

Could someone please help me locate this link in the admin or code and provide the code involved in changing this? Thanks in advance.

Re: Guest Checkout

When an unregistered guest clicks on "checkout" they currently go to:

http://mudcreekarchery.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=login

After clicking "Create Account" they go here:

http://mudcreekarchery.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=create_account&action=process

I would just like to eliminate the first step, hoping to make the process a bit more fluid for the guest.

Thanks,

Muddy

Re: Guest Checkout

... if your customer already has an account you create an extra click for them. Which is worse?

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

Re: Guest Checkout

I am currently using the sidebox login donation that a registered customer can use at anytime. If they need to login after filling the cart I am fine with the extra step as they should be more familiar with the site. I'm not nocking the current config, I just think it may seem a bit more fluid for a new user. Anyone know where to apply the change?
