-- Joomla version -- : 3.3.6

Hi,
I would like to setup a hikashop site as a dropshipper provider. i.e. my clients are re-sellers
My needs are:
1) guest users can view product/category listings pages but without availability and pricing information
2) only registered users can view full information
3) only registered users can order
4) shipping address to be compiled for each orders

Currently i have addressed all the requirements but (4).
How can I setup hikashop so registered users must fill out shipping address for each order that is the address of their end-user client?

In other words I want that the shipping address inserted in each order is not saved into the client address list but is only valid for that single order.

Thank you in advance for yours response

4. You can add shipping address as custom fields to orders table.

do you mean text custom fields? in that way there is no country/region/province list?

As people will copy/paste information from theirs orders, it's easier to use text field.
Otherwise there is filed type Zone for country, state...etc.

Hi,

For 1,2,3:
You can potentially edit the view "product / listing_img_title" and add:

if(hikashop_loadUser() == null){
	$link = '#';
	$this->params->set('add_to_cart','0');
	$this->params->set('show_price','0');
}
After:
$link = hikashop_contentLink('product&task=show&cid='.$this->row->product_id.'&name='.$this->row->alias.$this->itemid.$this->category_pathway,$this->row);

This will hide the add to cart button, remove the link to the product detail page, and hide the price.

4. Disable the option "Show shipping 'same address' checkbox".
Then you will have to edit the view "checkout / address" and add:
$this->addresses = '';
Before:
$this->type = 'shipping';
This way the system will always ask for the shipping address, and all the addresses are still stored in the database when editing orders, etc.
