I have this "unchecked" on both our sites, and yet when I go on to buy a customer at the point I click on check out I get asked to either sign in or register. I had just had a brilliant shopping experience on another site, I clicked on check out, I clicked on pay by paypal, I entered my paypal account details and it automatically pulled up my details from paypal and I hit confirm. 4 clicks. So easy! On our sites I would have to register first in order to check out which means an extra 20 plus fields to load - is it possible to replicate this kind of simplicity with x-cart? Thx Ladybird

Well, if you used Paypal as a payment method then yes, you could probably do the same thing. Of course your customer would need to have a Paypal account or they would have to "register" anyway. Also, Paypal has about the highest merchant account fees, and not being a bank they don't have to play by the same rules that banks do.

![]() Same problem here...
I have "disable anonymous checkout" UNchecked and customers are still forced to enter username/password. Customers are calling me and complaining about it. Any ideas?

![]() Are you sure they are mandatory? These fields show no matter what but if "disable anonymous checkout" is unchecked they are not mandatory, customers can omit them. You can put a note or something just above these fields that registration is optional.

![]() I've told customers to skip them, and it doesn't work.
Just today, someone called me and said they didn't want to create a username and password, and weren't able to skip the username/password fields when entering shipping/billing info. X-cart popped up with a message saying that their password must be 7 alphanumeric characters, and they hadn't even entered one. At first I attributed this to customer error, but it happens often enough - and even to me - that I can't ignore it. I even thought, oh this person forgot they'd already created a username and X-cart recognizes other parts of their info. I don't know. I'm baffled. I checked again, and the box is UNchecked in my General settings.

![]() Yes they are optional in your cart. A bug in 4.3.0? You may consider upgrade to 4.3.1, it may fix it. Also just so you know - there is an image on the siet called with http that pops up security warning under https
