simpson7647 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Hi all, currently when a customer registers, they for some reason only need to enter there password once. I would like them to have to enter it twice and ensure they match - If they don't I would like an error message to appear. Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjamin utterback Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Hello, this is not an option by default in PrestaShop. I am not sure of the code changes necessary to make this happen. I will move this to the correct forum, you may have better luck there. What version of PrestaShop do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpson7647 Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Thank you, The version is 1.4.7.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dh42 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Hey sorry, I forgot to reply to your email. Is there a specific reason why you want to do this? I generally would recommend against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpson7647 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 (edited) Hi, that's okay. Well currently when a customer registers, they only have to enter there password once. I would like them to enter it again to verify the password for obvious reasons such as so they don't make mistakes when typing. Why would you recommend against it please?

Dh42 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 The main reason I would recommend against it is more fields turn people off in an order process. That is why a guest account is so popular, the one field, password turns people off. At the same time, have you taken into account that prestashop sends you the password when you create an account?

benjamin utterback Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Also, in PrestaShop 1.5 you have the option of a quick account creation. This is to retain customers who want to register but not fill out so many fields. The option is under Preferences>>Customers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpson7647 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 My Version is 1.4.7 currently Benjamin so I guess I cant do that? Thanks DH42, I do see your point now. How can I enable so that members can simply purchase as a guest? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Hi simpson, yes that option is not available in 1.4x. However, you can turn on guest checkout in Preferences>> Enable Guest Checkout (yes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpson7647 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Hi Benjamin, thanks for the info. I've just enabled guest, and it does look that little bit easier for customers. What does everyone recommend? Enable guest or not? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dh42 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 My clients say guest checkout is a PITA, it increases customer service emails and calls. But, it does increase sales. Are you shipping worldwide, or local? And are you charging taxes based on some kind of tax zone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Hello, I would agree that it increases sales. Guest Checkout is used more often than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpson7647 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 I'm just currently dealing in the U.K. All prices include Tax. The guest section does appear as long as creating an account really as it has things such as date of birth etc. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
