Hi,

I couldn't find any "Invalid address" message in HikaShop.
It must come from something else. Could you give a link to your website so that we can see that ?

Regarding the button, if you update to HikaShop 1.5.7, that should be fixed. You can download the new version on our website.

From what I can see, this comes from the email sending library of Joomla which throws an error because an email address is invalid.
In can see that you removed all the login/address views from your checkout.
Please make sure that you also unpublish the emails of HikaShop via the menu System-&gt;Emails (business edition) so that the emails are not sent with empty information.

I'm also getting the invalid address. I'm using essential edition. What should I do to turn that off?

Go in the database and edit the table jos_config. There set the order_created_notification.publish entry to 0

Can't find jos_config in database. Are you referring to jos_hikashop_config? If yes, the closest I found was "order_creation_notification_email". There was no "order_created_notification". Did a search on the entire database too and could not find the search term "order_created_notification".

Hi Nicolas,

I found the following "order_creation_notification.published" and "order_creation_notification.html" in "jos_hikashop_config". Which one do I change the entry to 0?
Also if I change the entry to 0, will that mean I stop getting email notifications when an order is created?

Thanks for your help!

it's the published ones you need to change.
The creation email is for users, not the admin.
Since you don't ask for the user email in the checkout, they don't get the emails anyway so it won't change anything.

Hi Nicolas,

just changed "order_creation_notification.published" to 0 but "Invalid address: " still shows up. Any other suggestions?

Mmm.

Then let's do differently. add the line below in the override area of your translation file via the Languages tab of the configuration:

PHPMAILER_INVALID_ADDRESS=""
