I have only one product on my site, so I don't want the hassle of login/register for my users on onepage checkout. Hence I want my onepage checkout to skip and hide login/registration and directly take every checkout as guest checkout. I'm a new magento developer so have very limited knowledge about blocks, models, etc.
Below is the article which shows how it can be done, but I cannot implement it
http://excellencemagentoblog.com/blog/2011/10/17/magento-onestep-checkout-remove-login-step/
Can anyone just help me with the paths I need to create this files. I have asked the same question on magento stackexchange but no one replies there
Actually I am new magento developer so don't know how play with model, block etc. which the tutorial in my question did not explained clearly. Followed this tutorial to achieve this in 3 simple steps. Just there's a slide change due to the intro of persistent directory in /template. In step 2, the path you need to edit is template/persistent/checkout/onepage/login.phtml and you are done!

i manage my company website which runs WordPress. There are several chapters across the USA. I have pages setup for them so that people can view our chapters content. I was wondering, instead of them emailing me the changes they want. Is there a way where i can allow the users to only be able to edit a single page, without giving them access to the entire WordPress admin page/ website.
I would be willing to pay for a commercial plug if this option exists. Thanks for reading this.
There are Various Free / Paid Solution will be available for this based on your Model You can Choose any one of the following or there could be many other ways to get this done these are some of the way
You Can make them Editor and The Owner of the Chapter which they blong so in this way they will not have any rights to Edit other Chapters they will be only able to edit the Chapters which they own.To restrict other access in this case you can use plugin like User Role Editor and many other available at Wordpress repo.
You can also customize plugin like WP User Frontend to achieve the front end edit possible.
A Complete Custom Solution where use need not to login they simply submit the Changes which will be logged as article draft and you can later review and approve.
i think there will be much more way but it will be completely based on your applications nature so hope this helps to you.
I wonder if any of you could help?!
I've recently started a new project which requires an e-commerce system, with that being said I have installed magento and have started to play around with it.... however I am struggling to find any sort of information on using the mage.php file.
What I need really is help on the list below...
I've been looking for the code to display a product from magento on a page that is not situated within magento's platform. Can anyway point me to the code needed for this please
I'd like to incorporate the checkout/login or logout/my account links on every page even when not viewing a page located in magentos system.
I suppose basically I want to use magento to handle the product side of things but want to create my website without having to touch magento except from to call in certain functions.
Any help on this would be appreciated!
You can build the website using an easier content management system such as Wordpress and only use Magento for the Shop section of the website.
There is a plugin for Wordpress that allows you to display products from a Magent website.

There are many tutorials to adding extra tabs to the product page but I am struggling to find information on how I can create tabs on a new form from scratch. I have looked at the following resources but the information presented doesn't seem to be very clear or my magento isn't good enough to understand it yet:

how to create multiple tab in magento custom module?
I am trying to emulate the tab system that runs vertically down the left side of the product section but on a custom form.
Are there any references out there on how this should be done (similar to the official magento one explaining how to create an admin module)?
p.s I haven't posted code as anything I have is directly from the tutorials.
I ended up working through the excellencemagentoblog version and have successfully got tabs working. The examples given aren't exactly straight forward unless you understand the magento structure really well but the information within the article is adequate enough to work through.
I have been searching but have not found much information on this. Would it be possible to completely override Magento's frontend interface? What I mean with this is completely remove the shopping cart, menu's, product listings, everything, and replace with a completely customized interface, which will not be used for a eCommerce portal.
I just found out that our customer does not in fact want a eCommerce solution, although we have built a lot of functionality on Magento and it would be a shame to have to re-write EVERYTHING on another platform and still build a ordering framework as well.
So my question is this, can you build a theme on Magento that only shows parts of the system completely unrelated to the actual 'shop' and where would I find information to figure out how to do this? I'd like to keep the custom frontend in Magento to easily re-use the product view blocks, etc. but Magento itself is not a system our client wants.
I have thought of an alternative where the Magento shop is merely placed in a sub-directory and used as a sort of 'engine' to run the eCommerce side of the system and building a completely different system which integrates with Magento, the downside of this of course being that we would have to rewrite completed work as well.
What would be the best route to follow?
Here is one way to go about it:
Edit the homepage via the backend and enter the following code in to it:
{{block type="catalog/product" template="page/homepage.phtml"}} this will allow you to display products on the page.
Make sure that when you enter the code you can see html markup (and not just the output)
Make a completely customized webpage showing whatever you want
I'm trying to make a site where the user can choose between three options and then quickly pay (on the site, not redirected to paypal) and then once they pay are able to view the product (video). I want everything to be on one page. I have been looking at Ubercart for Drupal and WP eCommerce for Wordpress. They both seem overly complex for what I need, however, I can only program in HTML/CSS and I'm just starting to use PHP. Does anyone know of a guide, easier way, or CMS with an easier to use module for eCommerce that would fit my solution.
I have created a number of sites with WP-Ecommerce... Avoid using it if you can. It is buggy and inflexible. There are a number of other ecommerce plugins in WordPress plugin repository.
Get an account with Paypal and it will let you generate "Buy it Now" buttons for your products that are static HTML and manage all the payment process via Paypal. There's no signup fee. Their rates are a bit on the high side (starting at 2.9% + $0.30), but for low volume or testing new ideas they're a great place to start.
Give BigCommerce a try.
It is easiest to setup and use by far and if you have basic knowledge in HTML/CSS you'll be able to edit the templates no worries.
Integrates with a tonne of payment gateways out of the box.
Comes with free 15 day trial too.
