Guest Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I need to change the checkout process. When a customer wants to buy something they have to log in or create a new account. The second screen after login is checkout_shipping.php - shipping instruction, and from here they can go to checkout_shipping_address.php - the address book. I need to change it so it will go directly to the address book checkout_shipping_address.php and not to checkout_shipping.php. is it possible? any ideas which files control the checkout process? Thanks for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 The user must be registered before checkout_shipping_address.php can be used - why do you wish to do this? Sonia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Because the shipping address will always be different than billing. The way it is set up right now with checkout_shipping.php first showing the billing address as shipping, many ppl just click "continue" and don't notice that they have to enter a new address. The only way I can see to fix that is to take them directly to the address book where they will see fields to fill out. The user must be registered before checkout_shipping_address.php can be used - why do you wish to do this? Sonia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Take a look at this store - add something to the cart and hit the checkout button :) Regardless, the user must be registered before they can add a shipping address, or you must collect the address at signup (which osCommerce does not do). The standard osCommerce checkout is a very cumbersome seven pages if a shipping address must be added... really DOES need work! Sonia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Hey Sonia, thanks for your msg. All my customers have to create account. I disable guest account. I like how you simplified the checkout process, but it does not have the shipping address. ( and I like the website :) I think that if I would got rid of the checkout_shipping.php and go directly to checkout_shipping_address.php it would solve my problem.....

Guest Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 It does take the shipping address - click the link below the billing address that says "Please click here to add a separate shipping address" When you select a country the correct shipping modules load :) Sonia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 You can simply change your "checkout" links to checkout_shipping_address.php I personally dont think that adding yet another page to the "War and Peace" checkout of osCommerce is a good idea :'( Sonia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
