Is it possible to able the visitors shops without register an account?

Also when the customer chose some product and start checkout is possible just send an email with the order to the admin of shop who will contact the customer to start the transaction?

thanks

Me too. Our customers often made a registration and they think they made an order. Maybe they are just stupid, but it's embarrassing for us :-\

The current version (v0.7.7) offers a cart that can not be processed without having the "customer" object being active and logged in.. in order to get the customer object active, a customer must sign in first.

Given this, it is necessary for your shopper to enter in minimal information for the order such as address, phone, email.

Daniel will show us the way im sure but what i have is a way to simply grab a users input from a form and create the account programmatically for them, sign in and process the order. everything happens behind the scenes so the customer has no idea that an account is being created for them until after they process the order and the confirmation page comes up. you can check it out here

**its live so if you donate, its for a good cause, but it will withdrawl ;D ;) :)

Hi Lev,

"... what i have is a way to simply grab a users input from a form and create the account programmatically for them, sign in and process the order. everything happens behind the scenes so the customer has no idea that an account is being created for them until after they process the order and the confirmation page comes up..."

How did you so this,  can you add it as a contribution?

I'm really interested in using opencart but I cna't until there is a purchase without account contribution, or even better the way you are doing it and then ask for a password to be chosen at the end of the shopping process if they want to create an account.

Cheers.

Its donation and self-registration on one page. ::)
What happens is:
  The user either enters their information such as address, name
    -or-
  The user signs in with their current credentials.
 

If its a new user, they will have the option to create an account by supplying an email address and password.
If its a new user and they do not supply the email/password, a random generated account is assigned (something like onetime_03453454@{YOUR_DOMAIN}.com.

Either way, the account is created once the form passes validation and a confirmation emial is sent (ofcourse if they chose not to create an account the email will not be delieved to them as the email address in their profile is in the form mentioned above).

The users will have a chance to go into their 'My Account' page and supply a valid email/password after the order is complete, so they really should all create account after the order since it will be just 2 fileds for them on a screen that is automatically displayed after the order is complete.  ;D  phew :D

Let me know if you need more help.
I also attached my code, but keep in mind this is DONATION as well as *SINGLE PAGE checkout.



* actually they will need to go to the confirmation page for the order and then the payment processor page since that is the structure of the site.
