Billing and delivery addresses different by default

[moonmosaic]

I need to have the billing and delivery addresses different by default because my customers rarely send gifts to themselves. If the delivery and the billing addresses are the same then they have to click the box, otherwise they need to add an address for delivery.
I can't believe how many of my visitors have complained about setting this up being a pain.....looks easy to me!
Anyway, what do I need to change in the php file to make this happen?

{l s='Choose a delivery address:'}

{foreach from=$addresses key=k item=address}
id_address_delivery}selected="selected"{/if}>{$address.alias|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}
{/foreach}

<input type="checkbox" name="same" id="addressesAreEquals" value="1">id_address_invoice == $cart->id_address_delivery || $addresses|@count == 1}checked="checked"{/if} />
{l s='Use the same address for billing.'}

I know this is the area, but not sure what to change and where.

Thank you so much!!

Perhaps you can be inspired by my demo-shop. Users don't login and there are fewer steps in the checkout. You could easily change the "Use the same address" checkbox to be unchecked per default.

Go to themes/your_themes/order-address.tpl, somewhere in line 32,

<input type="checkbox" name="same" id="addressesAreEquals" value="1"

change it to

<input type="checkbox" name="same" id="addressesAreEquals" value="0"

I did that but it didn't work. Perhaps I should change something else too?

Oh, sorry. The thread ate half of the codes.

form

<input type="checkbox" name="same" id="addressesAreEquals" value="1">id_address_invoice == $cart->id_address_delivery}checked="checked"{/if} />

to


<input type="checkbox" name="same" id="addressesAreEquals" value="0">id_address_invoice > $cart->id_address_delivery}checked="checked"{/if} />

I think it will work.

Hi,

Thanks for the tip, but it doesn't work for me. All I get is a blank page when I change the code.

Your check out has problem. If I use other people's email address and then I will get all of their info, address, phone number, and order history? You will have a lot of legal issue to deal with....

[presta-dyr]

You're quite right. My security relies on the fact that I have very few customers. ;-)

Anyway, I like the checkout made by zelarg described in the thread Single page checkout. His strategy is to generate a password that you can get via e-mail if you are a returning customer.

Thanks Star, it worked for me!

I need to do the same, but I am using 1.4.7 and my code looks a little different than what is shown above. Can someone tell me how to change this so the checkbox will be unchecked by default?

 

<p class="checkbox">

<input type="checkbox" name="same" id="addressesAreEquals" value="1" onclick="updateAddressesDisplay();{if $opc}updateAddressSelection();{/if}" {if $cart->id_address_invoice == $cart->id_address_delivery || $addresses|@count == 1}checked="checked"{/if} />

All you need to do is remove

checked="checked"

 

Hope that helps!

Hallo,

 

in the checkout process, you have on top of your addresses a checkbox it is checked for using same address for delivery and billing.
