Disable Registration/Login For Customers Through Checkout!

I have created a contribution for shop owners to disable the login/registration for customers. Details of the package are below with the link to the download page!

This contribution allows you to disable the force login when your customers go through checkout, this allows customers to go through your checkout with their products and pay for the items with out signing in or registering. This will save your customers a lot of time and could make your abandoned carts go down!

The main idea of this is to save time for the customers who wish to pay through an online processor like PayPal. PayPal will give you the customer's details so they have no need to sign up as do other online processors!

This contribution CAN (optional!) allow you to ONLY show offline payment options to your registered customers; this will allow you to get their details before allowing them to pay with a Postal Order, Cheque or any other form of an offline payment.

This contribution will add a link to your login/sign up page on your checkout shipping page; this will allow customers to login/signup before completing the checkout procedure if they would prefer to do this. You can also tell customers to signup if they wish to pay with an offline payment.

This looks very promising, thank you..

One thing though, I noticed it is spelled "Diable Registration/Login

"
missing the "s"

I had to look it up and see if this was new terminology before I got led to here =)

Sorry for the spelling mistake, must have been tired from sorting it all out :P

I have now updated the contribution's install file and have also added a fix for ONE of the Protx Form payment modules, details are below:

As far as I can see there are 2 different types of the Protx Form module, take a look inside the following folder:
includes\modules\payment
If you see a folder named protx_form then the fix is for your Protx module, if you do NOT see the Protx form folder then there is currently no fix for your version, I am still looking into making it work.
Just to clarify the alteration is for the file protx_form.php ONLY IF YOU HAVE A FOLDER NAME protx_form.php

The new package has to be cleared through the administrators so could be a day or two before you are able to download it.

Ive installed this mod and every thing works fine except when a customer goes to the shipping page of the check out pros. They are unable to pull the shipping rate for UPS. It says "We are unable to obtain a rate quote for UPS shipping". But if a customer logs into their account the shipping quote is pulled just fine. I'm Thinking this has to do with the zip code not being filled in and it doesn't give the option for my customer to enter one witch is resulting in customer not being able to get past Step 1 of 3 during checkout with out logging-in or registering I am running zen-cart 1.38a if this helps you out with anything on trouble shooting this but also the same thing has happened to me on 1.37 as well.

Yes this module can't work with shipping methods which needs a country or zip/post code, there isn't really anything you are able to do, at best you could create a page before the shipping page that asks for the user country or zip/post code although this wouldn't be as simple as 1 2 3.

As a test I copied the files into a 1.3.8 install, but it doesnt work. All I get on the checkout is paypal, even if I have check/money order available in admin. Can we get an update for this, please? Thanks

Hi I had beed using this module and loved it, but took it off the site as i was using nochex and was worried that i wouldn't get the order details. Does this mod work with nochex? I'd really like to put it back as there has been a decrease in my conversions since i took it off.

Hello,

Just wondering if there is a version of this mod that allows you to enter a shipping address in ZenCart?

Thanks
Andrew

Hello,

Isn't this mod the same as Checkout Without Account Mod? Does it have extra features?

Regards

Hi this version (the one I'm using for zencar 1.37) allows customers still to enter all the necessay info but doesn't require them to create an account.

Sorry for the delay in the reply, with over 800 people downloading this module and the only thanks we get is when someone runs into a problem we have decided to discontinue our support and work on this module, all we asked was that you sent an email to us when you used the module just to let us know that our time and effects were worth while and it is worth updating the module to work with other payment modules as well as getting it to work with zone shipping etc.

As a test I copied the files into a 1.3.8 install, but it doesnt work.
You shouldn't copy these files for any other version, have you tried the read me file? I've not had chance to test it for 1.3.8 but I would think it is the same or very close in regards to the changes made.

Does this mod work with nochex?
I have no idea, if Nochex sends the customers details to you then it will work, it might need additional coding but I am unsure of this.

What you need is the Checkout Without Account module.

Its similar to this module but with checkout without account the customer enters their details just like they were registering but they do not enter a password, with this module they do not enter anything at all.

this version (the one I'm using for zencar 1.37) allows customers still to enter all the necessay info but doesn't require them to create an account.
Are you sure you have got the right module because this module doesn't let your customers enter their name, address, email etc.

I tried this mod and it indeed did not work with USPS ("no shipping to your area").

Is there another mod for quick checkout? I looked but I did not find one.
Thanks! :)

Ok is there another way to disable customer login since i lost the login on my page anyway? With just selling graphics i don't need it.

I've started another thread but I'm waiting for a response: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=92400

Would that help you?

I am very please to have this "diable registration/login", but my concern is that possible to combine "Fast and Easy Checkout" " with diable registration/login"

if that is possible, that will much better for the checkout for both customer wants to registered and don't want to.

and how to combine those to modules?

Anyone knows?

Hi there i am using the 1.38a version of zen cart i have zencart install via my cpanel Fantisico, now i need to add a module can you please tell me how to upload the file and to where? the module i want to upload in the optional insurance module.
Please any help will be appreciated

Download the mod to your PC and unpack it. You will find instructions inside; if you don't have an FTP program, you can upload the files in the appropriate directories (per directions) through your site control panel.

It may sound daunting but, in most cases, it's not hard if you pay attention and don't panic. ;)

As always, back up before making any changes! :)

how do you install this option into the zencart?:unsure:

This is an excellent mod 'in principle', but since it has absolutely no way of knowing what country (or area) the purchaser is in, it sadly makes it virtually unusable.

Without buyers being unable to input their location, it's NEVER going to work out shipping. If you get an International order on your shop, you could seriously end up out of pocket.

Ivum had obviously spent many hours developing this product, but it's a real shame it was not developed to be more practical.

Exactly right, and this is the main reason that many of us think the answer to the cart abandonment problem lies more in proper presentation and customer education than hacks that really only trick the customer into thinking that an account hasn't been created.

If you can figure out a way to tell visitors that the only difference between creating an account, and not creating one, is a 5-digit password (if you're selling shippable goods), I think most people will see the wisdom in that, and will also understand the advantages to having an account, if both are presented properly.
