I want to disable the guest checkout!

I tried it earlier and it gave an error so there is code connected somewhere else

We will soon being ALPHA testing changes to the checkout process. As previously mentioned, we will post here links to an internal test store where you can test the changes and provide your feedback.

Alpha testing has been completed on this modification to the v4 checkout system. This is such an important feature that we want you to be able to review it and provide feedback well ahead of the 4.1 release (release date yet to be finalized - probably June).

You can test it on this internal test store, which is a copy of the ProductCart standard version demo store that is active on the Early Impact Web site. This test store is being regularly updated with the latest v4.1 files.

Storefront: http://www.earlyimpact.net/stdv41/pc/
Control Panel: http://www.earlyimpact.net/stdv41/pcadmin
(12345/demo)

You will find the 3 "Guest Checkout" settings under "Settings > Checkout Options"



We look forward to your feedback.

My first reaction is that it is not visible enough.  Most folks like me use autofill and I did not even see the password fields when I put an order through.  Can it still be separated like before to make it very noticeable.  I would also suggest an instruction like " (5 characters min.)" next to the field.

Thank you for your feedback.

Please always indicate which of the 3 settings you are testing with. The behavior changes depending on which setting you choose in the Control Panel.

As for the password fields: we plan on adding a text message above the fields to let customers know why they may want to register. Of course, this message will be hidden when option #3 is chosen, since the password becomes a required field.

We can also add some interface elements to make the password fields more visible (e.g. different background color) when options 1 and 2 are used.
