Guest Checkout without registration

[roroPrestashop]

Hi Everyone.

I've been pulling my hair out for days trying to figure out how to have ONLY guest checkout and without the need to register.

 

I've gotten pretty far, where I have been able to checkout properly as a new guest and somehow also, when creating a new shopping cart, I can checkout again, and then there would be separate customers in the admin.

 

But there's some stage where it's checking for a password and telling me that it's required... 

It's actually such a mess because it seems like there are multiple places needed to edit and my code is starting to get sloppy. 

 

Does anyone know of any way to do this? Is there a module out there? (I couldn't find anything....)

 

Thanks!!!

You can use Once Page Checkout mode and  also enable Guest checkout.

Then try to hide the elements for existing customer to log in at checkout page - then user should be able to checkout without log/register a customer.

Thanks, but I wish it was that easy.

- I removed the choice of whether to checkout or register and only showed guest.

- I removed the password field and only kept name and email and shipping address.

 

It seems to work the first time but the second time, the system is recognizing me as a returning customer and then it doesn't work right and asks for a password as an error.

I just tried, it seems working fine. 

I made order many times, every time I can use guest checkout. 

have you made any changes to change to other logic instead of modifying the theme file to hide the "log in as existing customer"?

Thanks.

It seems like I solved it but not entirely sure yet. I have changed the AuthController for a separate issue and maybe that caused some problems. 

I'll continue checking.

yes, that might be the case.

but if it better indicate that you have made changes to the controller so that it will be easier for us to find out the cause of the issue with more info.
