Hi,
Does Hikashop customer registration require Joomla User Registration to be allowed?
We are getting a lot of spam through our Joomla contacts form, and want to turn off the Joomla User registration; will Hikashop then still be able to register new customers?
Thanks,
Tim

Hi,

No, HikaShop requires the Joomla user registration to be activated if you want to have users registering through the checkout of HikaShop.
However, if you configure instead your checkout to use the "guest" mode, in that case, the guest mode doesn't require the Joomla user registration to be activated.
Note also that if you have a spam issue with the Joomla contact form and you don't use it, you can turn off com_contact via the extensions manager.
