Terms and Conditions don´t show up

-- url of the page with the problem -- : mywebsite.com/mypage
-- HikaShop version -- : 2.2.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.1.5
-- PHP version -- : 5.3.21
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Torch 25.0.0.3831
Hello, I am using Hikashop registration form instead of Joomla registration form becaue I like it better and it gets more information from customers.
It is also important to me that the customers and users of my website have to accept the terms and conditions on registration and also on checkout. I created a single article with the Terms and Conditions set in general category and a menu item in the main menu for it. That all works fine and the page opens great when the menu item is clicked. Then in the Hikashop configuration, checkout section I selected the article for the terms and conditions. Saved it and when I check it, it shows the artcle item number - great. Problem is it doesn´t show up in the registration forms or on checkout or anywhere else as far as I can see. What can be the problem? Thanks for your help.

Hi,

You have to add the step "Terms and conditions" in the checkout workflow. Else it will not be displayed.
By default we only display the terms and conditions in the checkout workflow not in the user registration.

For the registration, what can be done is create a custom field in the table user, set it as required, type checkbox, and for the description set a phrase with the link of the article.

Hola Xavier,
Thank you for the help. You set me on the right track for the terms and conditions in the check out and it is working fine there. However, I am having some problem with trying to set it up in User Table. The field shows up but no check box appears – only the asterisk for required field. It seems that some of the field type options work and others don´t. Radio doesn´t show up neither do drop down lists. Text box, date and some of the other field types do show up. What do you think is my problem? Also how do I set a link to the label description? Do I have to go into the code for that? If so what do I add and where? Thanks.

Thanks Nicolas,

That got my checkbox working. There does´t seem to be a way from the custom field option to put a link on the label to the Terms and Conditions article. How do I go about linking the label with the article? Do I have to alter code? If so what do I add and where? Thanks

Ok I got the custom text showing up but it drops the link. How do I get it to show as a link instead of plain text.

Thank you very much, Nicolas. Mine is working fine now as well thanks to the code you showed me. I really appreciate your patience with my ignorance.

By the way, how do I make the email, email confirmed, password and password confirmed fields show the asterisk as required fields on the register form. Thanks.

Thanks, that did the trick
