new shipping address updates billing address

A minor issue but needs some attention.

If a customer adds a new shipping address it adds the new address to the billing addresses. Not ideal but ok. The problem is that it selects the new address as the billing address. One has to be sharp eyed to spot this change if you didn't expect it.

How can I ensure that the originally selected billing address remains the selected one even after a new shipping address has been added?

Thanks

A further issue has been spotted.

If an address different from the billing address has been entered and selected it doesn't appear on the user and admin emails. Instead the billing address is used for the shipping address even though the alternate address was selected.

Thanks for replying

I believe it is the latest version.

Hi

Thanks for the response

To be honest, this is turning into a bit of a nightmare.

We took the Payment out of the checkout workflow as you suggested. It didn't default to PayPal, it went straight to 'Thank you for your order'. I put the Payment back into the checkout workflow and now it won't appear on the cart at all and a purchase is no impossible. The PayPal plugin is published and configured. Needless to say it didn't resolve the original problem with the addresses either.

I really do need someone to go through this with us.

Apart from a few css errors, mostly yours, but not all, there are no Java errors showing in the Firefox error console.

Your help would be really appreciated on this

Thank you for your response.

Since I last posted I have made some changes including putting the message function into the templates. I have also resolved the issue with the addresses. I don't suppose you could tell me how to get the email address to appear in the content of the Admin email for the order?

I have no idea why the PayPal plugin wouldn't display or work, but for reasons beyond me it now does. I did reload many of the related files, so that may have done the trick.

There is still a problem though. When selecting a characteristic that is not the default nothing is put into the cart when the 'Order Now' button is clicked and the page jumps back to the home page rather than going to the cart page. If the default characteristic is changed then that will work and the others won't.

Thanks for your help

I've restored the original order and managed to keep the basic design the same. The designers probably won't be pleased, but then what can be done.

It does seem to have resolved the problem, Thank you.

I'll let you know how I get on with adding the email address to the admin order email.

Cheers

All working correctly it seems

Thank you

Hi. I am having this same issue. You say you have "also resolved the issue with the addresses". Do you mind posting how you did that for me? I am sure it will be helpful for those finding this post with the same issue. Thanks.
