Add a step to checkout to collect custom info

hi,

we've created a custom field that asks a customer to select a start date for their magazine subscription. but this appears in the address section of the registration form. when a customer returns for another order, the subscription start date field is already populated from the previous order and is being missed the second time.

how can we take that field away from the registration form and have it displayed as a step in the checkout so that all customers see the field and are required to select an option from the dropdown every time they go through the checkout?

many thanks

Hi,

You have to create that field in the table "order", and in the checkout worflow configuration you need the set "field".
This is available in the business version of HikaShop

thanks, we don't have the business version at the moment, is there a way to do this using the free version or something i can manually change in the code that would allow me to do it?

i realise that might not be possible as it's a commercial feature, it's just giving us a bit of a headache at the moment.

many thanks

ps. here's the site to illustrate the problem, if you add an item to basket you'll see the reg form with the 'Subscription start date' dropdown field.
