How to disable customer registration?

is there a way to totally disable customer registration at check out point.
I don't want to even display that part of the form to them.
where do I go to disable that option? :?

[skin1]/main/register.tpl

You'll need to remove the links in the laguages area of the admin also.

Also I'd suggest enabling the debug console under general settings of the admin ;)

I really don't know what I'm looking at in this file. I've played around with it without success. Although I wish there was just a simple turn off button for no required registering, I would like to make registering as simple, short and as fast as possible. How can I change this code so it only has the required fields (name, address, username and password for example). Thank you.

include/register.php

Code:

$fillerror = (empty($uname) || !empty($error) || empty($passwd1) || empty($passwd2) || ($passwd1 != $passwd2) || empty($firstname) || empty($lastname) || empty($b_address) || empty($b_city) || (!empty($states) && empty($b_state)) || empty($b_country) || empty($b_zipcode) || empty($phone) || empty($email));

Simply edit that if statement to your liking.

The template file:
skin1/main/register.tpl

merry xmas! :wink:

Is there a way to turn off the registration (log in/authorization area on left nav) feature on the main customer page? Or, add some text to it so people know this is voluntary?

Turning off authentication

I'm a little lost on the answers to this question. I'm hoping that (by now) there might be a simple way to "turn off" customer registration? Seems like this would be a basic on/off function since many ecommerce sites do not require registration.

(it's one of the main reasons so many people switched from PayPal to more expensive services, site owners saw dramatic increases in sales if the user did not have to register)

3.5.x:

skin1/auth.tpl:

find:

Code:

{if $usertype eq "C" or ($usertype eq "B" and $config.Modules.partner_register eq "Y")}

<tr>

<td height=24 nowrap class=VertMenuItems>

{include file="buttons/create_profile_menu.tpl"}

</td>

</tr>

{/if}

And remove or {* comment *} it out.

just to clarify...

If I do this, it will disable the entire login/password "authentication" process on all pages or do I need to hunt each "chunk" down separately?

And... the checkout process will not require anyone to sign up?

THanks!!

I remarked out the code in skin1/auth.tpl per your instruction but xcart is still asking for a username and password upon checkout.

I don't want my customers to log in (yes, I know that this will require they enter their information every time they order).

In previous versions of X-Cart, each order placed created an anonymous user with username "Anonymous5342" or something like that. How can I get my newer version of X-cart to do this?

Wouldn't this do the trick?

koby	02-12-2005 08:43 AM

I tried doing this, but the cart subsequently gives me errors making sure my passwords matched.

In order to work around this, I tried remarking out register.tpl. When I did this, I got Smarty errors.

I have noticed that register.tpl has not been present in previous versions of X-Cart, so this is a new phenomenon to me.

What else can I try?

I would also like to know how to comment out all references to login/registration.

I am using 4.0.10....anyone know.

Please advise,

same here, it would be nice to get rid of that authenication box on the right side of the screen.

Should be really simple. Just do as previous posters have said and comment out the auth.tpl and authbox.tpl from home.tpl, edit the checkout pages to remove any reference to 'login', make sure 'Disable Anonnomous checkout' is NOT checked and then comment out the whole username/password section on register.tpl.
