Billing address entry on registration

Is it possible to show the billing address input form rather than having to click NEW to add an address?

Thanks!

That will be the case if you're not logged in.

Ah, I see, but even if I am logged in, I would like it to show. We have a lot of users who have registered who just entered the basics, name, username, pw, email. They also need to add their billing address. I'm concerned about ease of use and customer support.

Thanks!

Sorry, I had logged in with my Client's creds in order to download software. Same person as BeTheDance.

Then, they will have have to click on "new" if they already have an account. If you want to have the form display directly on the checkout for them, there is no option for that. You would have to develop it.

If I change the language on the button to "Add your Billing Address", will that conflict? In other words, is the 'New' language used elsewhere? I'm assuming so.

If you do it via a translation override ( www.hikashop.com/en/download/languages.html#modify ) it will change it for every "new" button in hikaShop.

Instead, you could edit the file "address_view" via the menu Display->Views and change the text HIKA_NEW to your custom text.
