Super Simplified Checkout

I am trying to create a super simplified cart/checkout process, and I can't seem to get the right things turned on and off the way I want them.

Essentially, I want the user to be able to add items to their cart as usual. When they check out, I just want them to see the cart, add an e-mail address for the purchaser, the shipping info, and then go straight to PayPal. I do not want to go to the interim page that shows the cart again, shows Billing and Shipping info (and options to add or change), and has other shipping and purchase info at the bottom. I simply want the user to fill out the purchase and ship to information, and then go straight to PayPal for the transaction. I do not want to collect or store anyone's billing information. When they click Next or Finish, they go straight to PayPal to complete the purchase.

Please check out the attached image...

Also, I need to know how to change the email settings for transactions. I am getting an email when someone creates an order. I do not want this, I want an e-mail to only be sent on completed transactions.

Thank You!

Thanks so much for your reply!

I have started to make some progress!!!

I followed your instructions, but if I remove "PAYMENT" from the workflow, after the user signs in, clicking "Next" sends you to a Thank You Page, and no transaction is ever initiated.

I put "PAYMENT" back in the checkout workflow, and now it works, although I still have the Payment Option (for which I have only one) showing. I would like to get rid of the on-screen Payment Option information, but obviously, still keep the payment in the workflow so people can check out via PayPal.

Anyway, after you complete the log on screen, and click NEXT, you are still taken to a summary page, which in this case, is really no different than my first, stripped down page.

Is there any way to remove this second page from the workflow...and go straight to PayPal? This would be my ideal scenario.

Go ahead and put something in the cart, check out, and, of course, you can cancel out of the PayPal screen once you reach it.

But please let me know if there is a solution for this!

Thanks,

I think that you'll just have to use only ONE step through your checkout workflow to do it ("Hikashop->System->Configuration->Checkout").

Can you please explain further? Which ONE step???

Also, how do I remove the Convert Cart in Wish List from showing up on the order screen?

Thanks,

Rob.

Here's a screenshot. I can see an empty box in the workflow...but see no way to remove it...

Hi,

I think that your checkout configuration is fine, you must have the "payment" step, else it will not redirect to Paypal.
To hide the payment method, I think that you have to do that with css properties because the field is required.

Thanks to add:

.hikashop_payment_methods{ display: none !important; }

Thank you. I will try that.

In the meantime, I am also trying to remove the Convert Cart in Wishlist button.

Can you please let me know how to do that?

Thanks!

Rob.

Thanks! Finally found this in the Configuration >> Features >> Wishlist

The previous solutions were to find an option in Configureation >> Display >> Display Options...but there was no option in that area to change the Wishlist.
