Checkout workflow

hi,

i want to change the checkout workflow.

first step i want to have the left login for register users with username and password.
and on the right for unregistered user the fields email and password and then the register button.

after clicking the register button i want the next page to have a table with delivery address and billing address.

is that possible? could you give me guide lines to do it?

thank you

It sounds like you're describing the default screen of the checkout. Am I missing something in your explanation ?

we want after confirmation the user to be able to add the delivery address and the billing address.

we are not able to have delivery address, i enable the Force shipping regardless of weight and the user is able only to put multi billing address.

If you don't see the shipping address selection it's because the option " Force shipping regardless of weight " is turned off (if you edited the views of the checkout from an old version of HikaShop and then updated, it's possible that the view doesn't include the modifications in order to display the interface when that option is turned on) and that you didn't set any weight in your products.
An easy solution is to set a weight on your products...

Is a fresh install

the Force shipping regardless of weight is on (Yes option)

we have weight in our products

i can see only billing address.

Could you give a link to your shop ?

its a draft demo

We checked on our end and there is indeed a problem with the option of the configuration.
Could you change the line:
$done->has_shipping = $shipping;

by:
$config =& hikashop::config();
$done->has_shipping = $shipping || $config->get('force_shipping');

in the file components/com_hikashop/controllers/checkout.php

and the line:
$this->has_shipping = $shipping;

by:
$config =& hikashop::config();
$this->has_shipping = $shipping || $config->get('force_shipping');

in the file components/com_hikashop/views/checkout/view.html.php ?

That should correct the problem of the option not being taken into account.
For the fact that even with a weight it doesn't display the shipping, you should use grams instead of kgs. It's a conversion problem where the rounding of the values results in the weight being 0.

thx Nicolas i made the changes but i am not able to insert the details for the delivery address.

i cant see any different.

We tested the modification on our end and it has solved the problem for us. Could you double check the modifications ?

i double check the changes but could you tell me where the user he suppose to insert the delivery address?

ok i have it now,thank you Nicolas!

But why its nesesarry to put weight on products to have the shipping address?


Also at the registration part we want to avoid the Address Information at the first step and the user to be able to insert the address details at the next step. How we can do this?

for example the "first step" is something like the screenshot below

With the modifications above, if you have the option " Force shipping regardless of weight " turned on, you should not have to set weight in your products.

For the registration, the address fields and the user registration fields are on the same screen in order to reduce the number of steps the user need to go through in order to buy on your website and thus increase the conversion rate.
You can't dissociate both in HikaShop. If you want to do it, you will have to edit the views of the checkout in order to do it.

in another copy i made the changes but it doesnt works.. you will proceed with an update version soon?

We are thinking of doing an update before next week. But that doesn't change the fact that this fix should work and that's the only fix we made on our end regarding the problem and that has solved it for us.

What do you mean by "in another copy i made the changes but it doesnt works" ?

In your previous message, it seemed that you had found why the modification didn't had solved the problem and that it was now working...

in this site Nicolas it doesnt works, i double check the changes

Could you provide a back end access to your website so that we can check your settings ?

You didn't had any shipping method configured.
