But I have a problem I don't understand: On the last step before user is redirected to paypal or he chooses the banking payment, he has to click on the checkbox "read terms". The checkbox comes after the selection of the payment method. Now user clicking first on the payment method, the error message says that he has no accepted the legal terms, even if this field comes after on that page. Why the hell HIKA validates first the legal terms checkbox, that is defined as last step?

I spent ages cleaning and upgrading the site and the template so it all works as it should - BUT now my store is broken ![:(](/media/kunena/emoticons/22.png ":(") Initially I thought that hikashop had lost the file path to the pictures; [ clinitas.info/index.php/buy-now.html](http://clinitas.info/index.php/buy-now.html) The pictures are there in the right place but not showing. If any selects to buy nothing is added to the cart. I dread to think what else is wrong! Any help to fix would be appreciated. - the store only holds 8 items maybe I should delete and start again?
