-- HikaShop version -- : 2.6.3

Due to nature of store, shipping address will always be different than billing.

Is there a way to force a new ship address instead of default to using billing?

Hi,

You would have to turn off the option "Show shipping 'same address' checkbox" in the HikaShop configuration.
Then, you want to edit the file "address_select" in the menu Display&gt;Views and change the code: Code:

if(empty($this-&gt;addresses)) { $js = ''; $params = new stdClass(); $params-&gt;type = $this-&gt;type; $params-&gt;address_id = 0; $params-&gt;edit = true; $params-&gt;fieldset_id = 'hikashop_checkout_'.$this-&gt;type.'_address_zone'; echo hikashop_getLayout('address', 'show', $params, $js); }

to: Code:

if(empty($this-&gt;addresses)) { $js = ''; $params = new stdClass(); $params-&gt;type = $this-&gt;type; $params-&gt;address_id = ($this-&gt;type=='billing' ? 0 :(int)$current); $params-&gt;edit = true; $params-&gt;fieldset_id = 'hikashop_checkout_'.$this-&gt;type.'_address_zone'; echo hikashop_getLayout('address', 'show', $params, $js); }

and that the code: Code:

&lt;?php if($this-&gt;type=='shipping') $this-&gt;addresses = null; ?&gt;

at the top of the view file and that should do it.
