Guide for One Step Checkout

The extension can significantly reduce cart abandonment, combining the entire purchase process on a single page. The whole checkout flow with various steps is simplified to a handy page with customizable sections and fields. Among its prominent features there are Google address suggest and freindly guest checkout.


Having troubles?

  • Try disabling the extension and check if you're getting the same result with Magento default checkout. One Step Checkout is designed to be as transparent for other checkout-related extensions as possible, it will display the data “as-is”. So if you're getting suspicious results please compare them to what you get with One Step Checkout disabled.
  • Some custom themes may have custom design for blocks displayed on checkout. If you see blocks displaying incorrectly on One Step Checkout please try switching to Magento default theme. Would that help that will mean that theme should be adjusted to disable custom design for checkout blocks.

Geo IP Data

To install the Geo IP database, go to System → Configuration → Amasty Extensions → GeoIP Data.

Databases are required for the correct work of the module. Also you need to install php bcmath or gmp extension on your server.

You can get the databases automatically or import your own data.

Hit the Download and Import button to make the extension download the updated CSV dump file and import it into your database automatically.

To import the files from your own source, use the Import option. Path to the files should look like this (the part 'var/amasty' should be replaced with your folders’ names):

var/amasty/geoip/GeoLite2-City-Blocks-IPv4.csv 
var/amasty/geoip/GeoLite2-City-Blocks-IPv6.csv 
var/amasty/geoip/GeoLite2-City-Locations-en.csv
In the Import section, the Import button is grayed out by default. It will be available right after you upload the CSV files. The red error notification will switch to green success notification when the import is completed.
Sometimes it happens that the import is stuck in the middle of the process. It’s a common issue, and there is a solution for it. Read our article and learn how to import Geo IP database properly.

Manage One Step Checkout


Labels and Layout

Please go to Admin panel → System → Amasty One Step Checkout to configure display of fields in checkout blocks and other options.

At the Labels and Layout tab you can specify labels for checkout blocks and choose layout for the checkout page. It is possible to specify labels and all other extension settings for each store view.

Fields

At the Fields tab you can configure the order and other parameters of fields in checkout blocks. Please choose for which block to edit the fields, Billing or Shipping.

  • To change display order for a field just drag the field to the right position.
  • It is possible to edit label for each field.
  • In Placement column you can specify in percent how much space each field will take in a line. E.g. Last Name field will take 50% of a line. If you specify 100, the field will occupy the whole line.

  • Add fields. With Add fields button, either in Shipping and Billing sections, you can add up to three new fields. Set a label name, a placement, and length. E.g. Include additional fields, that in your view, can be appropriate like e-mail or note to seller.

Frontend

As you see, checkout is combined with shopping cart page and is very compact. Customers need to fill in just one page and the order is complete. To save additional space, you can remove the shopping cart and enable editing of products in the cart on the order review step.

Customers can log in right on the checkout page.

  • To login as a guest, customers need only an e-mail.
  • To sign up, they should simply add a password.
  • If a customer is already registered, there is a second tab Login in your account, with e-mail and password fields.

Registered customers will have their checkout information filled automatically.
