Purchase as a guest when the email address is registered

[janeklass]

Hi,
 
If a person has an account but still wants to buy as a guest. How to do it? The store is currently saying that an email address already exists. (look at the picture)

You can not do this in Prestashop. 

Or you must change group of this account to Visitor or Guest -> So you can checkout with the same email 

File check this: classes\form\CustomerForm.php lines 120

  $id_customer = Customer::customerExists($emailField->getValue(), true, true);

I have this line in this file and it is exactly the same. Is there any need to change this? Does the change affect anything else in the store?

just enable guest checkout,  we have our own inhouse checkout module we wrote because we are US agency, the ps default is better than addons checkout modules which have not improved in years....ours has little trick, when you fail to sign in, it prompts you to checkout as guest....rather than lost pwd/email....

that technique came from walmart.com/jet.com looool
