Unable to add to cart

[Muldrick82]

Unless the customer is a registered user.
I WANT the customer to register when they purchase, but I DO want them to be able to add to cart without being registered.
Is this possible?

[cbsteven]

Yes. Store settings -> Checkout settings -> Password is required

[Muldrick82]

Well, if I log out I can not add items to cart.

My point is that I WANT folks to be to add to cart without being logged in or registered.

I DO want them to register when they purchase, but not necessarily when just adding to cart.

So I logged out as a customer, attempted to add to cart, there is no add to cart button, unless I log in.

With the setting I gave you, you can add items to cart, but you cannot complete checkout unless you register.

If your store is not letting you add to cart without being logged in, then you changed a different setting.

[Muldrick82]

Well, I see the
"Require login "To Buy".

I have it set to "To Buy".

There really is no other option unless I allow purchases without registering, which I do not want.

[cbsteven]

Change it to "Not required". The setting I gave you will do what you want. This is the third time I have answered the question.

And the third time this does not fix my problem.
If I change it to "not required" people can purchase without registering, which is not what I want.

Have you actually tried what I suggested?
If your checkout setting is PASSWORD REQUIRED, then you will NOT be able to check out without registering.

Instead of repeatedly telling me that I don't understand your question and that my advice is wrong, how about you try actually doing what I suggest, and then thanking me for my time and helping you out.

Be nice everyone. Ecommerce comes easier to some than it does to others. Also, patience is a virtue.
Here's what I suggest...

Hi guys...

There are two settings in question.

Under Settings -> General Store Settings -> Checkout Settings, the Password Required will make sure that the customer has to have an account before they are able to check out.

The Require Login field under the Product Settings needs to be Not Required so that anyone can look at the prices and add to cart without having an account.
