capturing Address at checkout

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.3
-- Joomla version -- : NA

Were trying to capture the address at checkout and place into the address table on a custom checkout page, but were not having any success.

We have the following input fields in our form.


<input type="text" name="data[address][address_firstname]" value="">
<input type="text" name="data[address][address_lastname]" value="">
<input type="text" name="data[address][address_telephone]" value="">
<input type="text" name="data[address][address_street]" value="">
<input type="text" name="data[address][address_city]" value="">
<input type="text" name="data[address][address_state]" value="">
<input type="text" name="data[address][address_post_code]" value="">

Currently, we have no problems placing data into the order table with similar formatting like:
<input type="text" name="data[order][post_code]" value="">

Any assistance is appreciated.

Also, where are we able to obtain older versions of hikashop? IE 2.3.3

Thank you!

Hi,

1. Custom address fields are meant to be processed during the registration / guest registration step (or when editing an address).
So normally, they are handled by the after_login task of the checkout controller while the registration process is being done.
Do you also ave data[register] fields like on the default checkout ?

2. Old version of HikaShop are not freely available.
If you want one, please request it via our contact form:
www.hikashop.com/support/contact-us.html
Please specify the version and edition you which to get and if the edition is not the starter one, please also provide information about your purchase of that edition.

We dont have any data[register] fields in our checkout process. Can you explain how I would go about adding this?

Thank you

Hi,

An address needs to be associated to a user entry.
So, supposing that you're not logged in, and supposing that you have activated the guest checkout you would only need to have data[register]

Yes were doing just guest checkout. So we would do something like data[register][address_street] or all of the fields in the address table? What inputs are required for this to work? data[register][address_user_id] ?
Thank you

Hi,

No, you need to keep the address fields with data[address]address_street].
It's data[register]

I think we have the starter edition and Im guessing this wont work on that.

Hi,

With the Starter edition, there is no guest checkout.
In that case, you need to provide the password and email and username fields inside data[register] in order to do a normal registration.
Otherwise, the form submit will be refused as incomplete.
