d4funky1 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Hi, When a customer press' the checkout button they are redirected to my login.php page where they are provided options. I would like to know if it is possible for when they press the checkout button they are taken directly to the order_info.php page without being presented with the options? Also, i would like to remove the option to proceed directly to checkout from the login.php page? I'm sure this is possible but i would like to ask first before i attempt and do anything drastic. As per usual, any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks D4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fromthe5 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I am also very interested in getting this information. Without it I'm stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloged Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 As I remember it correctly this behaviour is coded in the application_top.php and in login.php itself! And if I'm not mistaken some of these behaviours can be set in the admin via configuration! Grtz, Arjan Gelderblom I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive.

fromthe5 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I certainly didn't seem to find anything about it in the configuration section. Maybe I'm going blind. (more blind) It seems to me that this should be a no-brainer, because making someone fill out personal info fields when they are ready to make a purchase online could be very costly. In general people are very wary about giving out personal info online. The sensible way to set this up would be to default to the order_info.php page with an easy conversion if the merchant wanted to force his customers to provide personal info. In any case I'm no closer to the answer at this point. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d4funky1 Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 nope i've had a look at the application_top file and i can't see for looking. I assume there must be a redirect command associated to the checkout button. If we can find this command then alter the code to redirect to order_info instead of login we may have cracked it. As the checkout button appears on all pages application_top sounds like a good choice but i can't see the wood for the tree's now. Any new insight would be greatly appreciated. But yes, i feel conversion rates around the oscommerce world would increase by implementing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d4funky1 Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 Okay, Try this: open checkout_shipping.php find the following lines (around 24, 25, 26, 27, 28) if (!tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) { $navigation->set_snapshot(); tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL')); } And simply comment them out so they look like: // if (!tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) { // $navigation->set_snapshot(); // tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL')); // } Get back to me and see what you make of this D4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d4funky1 Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 IGNORE THE LAST POST Here's what to do. Go to the same section of checkout_shipping.php if (!tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) { $navigation->set_snapshot(); tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL')); } and change to: if (!tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) { $navigation->set_snapshot(); tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_ORDER_INFO, '', 'SSL')); } Conversions Galore!!!

fromthe5 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Doesn't seem to make any diference. Maybe it also has to be adjusted in another area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fromthe5 Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 AH! Got it! I thought I was doing well before I saw what was on that page. I'm helping out a friend, trying to get this together. http://blatmanpainclinic.com/store/FILENAME_ORDER_INFO Methinks this isn't what I wanted to see. I'm trying to remember where to fix it. It's late.... too many hours of this and other stuff. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d4funky1 Posted July 6, 2007 Author Share Posted July 6, 2007 Just an update - but on the small amount of data we have collected since implementing this in the last 24 hours our shopping cart conversion rate has increased by 17%!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
