Customer Can't Register

[kevin13952]

I just discovered that a customer can't register on my site unless they are placing an order.

 

Perhaps I'm missing a setting somewhere that causes this?

 

When I try to create a test customer I click the "Sign In" link at the top of my page. I then enter an email address in the "Register as a new customer" section. But when I click "Register" it shows the "Authentication" breadcrumb but nothing else below that.

 

So I tried adding products to the cart and registering during the checkout process and it worked fine.

 

But my customers shouldn't have to go partially through the checkout process simply to be able to register.

 

Any thoughts or ideas on how to remedy this?

Can you share your website link and did you modify authentication.tpl?
