Logout after purchase or login for new user.

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.2
-- Joomla version -- : 3.3.1
-- PHP version -- : 5.4.7

I configured the login page which has guest user and registered user. Both works fine separately.
After the registered user finished the purchases, then there is another guest user wants to buy some products. But "proceed to Checkout" goes directly to the address.
How can the guest user goes to login page which is the first page of Checkout process?

It reads as if you did this on the same device, first acting as a logged-in user, then trying to act as a guest. You have to admit that in the real world it's unrealistic. This would happen on two different devices instead.

To simulate it, i.e. for testing purposes, you should delete all cookies in your browser for your domain in between actions, or use two different browsers, one for the logged-in user and one for the guest.

Also, you can offer a logout option for logged-in registered users by publishing a Joomla login module, visible for registered users only.

Is that any other user having a similar setup.
Or the forum showed in one of the topic.

How can the user logout when he or she really wants to log off from Hikashop ?

Thanks for your kind advise.

Hi,

@lousyfool
In Joomla, when the user log-out, all cookie and session is destroyed.
So the address or other elements that HikaShop could keep, will be removed from the session for the next "user" (or "guest user").

@silvesterho
You could use a "login" module in your joomla website and just display it for the registered accounts.
So when the user is a "guest", the module won't be displayed and when the user is logged, the module will display the "logout" button.

Hi, Jerome
