Regards, Cat' :)")* Hi, You should keep the "login" view in your checkout workflow, otherwise, you won't get the address interface, as you already saw. Instead, you should change the "Registration" option on that same screen to "No registration". That way, HikaShop will display the address form normally and you users will be able to enter their address.

In the registration field, it states that it's only Avail. in commercial versions. I'm assuming the client will need to purchase either the Essential or Business version, is this correct? Also, the client would like to know that if they purchase a commercial version, then will they be able to customize the product/fly page, to include previous viewed products and recommended products? I see that I can add related products but not sure if this is the same as recommended.

Regards, Cat' :)")* Indeed, that would require either the Essential or the Business edition. For the recommended products, yes that's the related products feature you can use. For the previously viewed products, we don't have that option for now. I don't think that it would be too complicated to add though. We'll look at adding that in next release as that has already been requested in the past.
