Thanks, Robin")* Hi, In that case, I would recommend to simply hide the billing address area everywhere. First, add a CSS code like that on your website: \#hikashop_checkout_address_right_part{ display: none; } And add an entry with the namekey shipping_address_same_checkbox and the value 0 in the hikashop_config table of the database via phpmyadmin That will remove the billing address on the checkout and activate the shipping address interface by default on the checkout.

I appreciate your creativity in coming up with all these fixes. There were many other questions I had that were answered by your previous responses to other Hikashop users. Very helpful for sure. Anyway, I got it to work. Now customers can checkout without entering a Billing Address. What I ended up doing was hiding the Shipping Address with CSS like you said, and changing the language of 'Billing Address' to 'Shipping Address'. So the data is actually entered into the database as Billing Address, but because the hidden checkbox is checked for 'Use the same address for Shipping Address', the customer's address is also entered into the Shipping Address field in the database.
