In this section you will be able to create, edit, update, and delete users and administrators. As well, this is where you will define all required information a user must submit when they visit your site and create an account. In addition, you’ll find the methodology to import user information from System5 within this area.

Edit User Settings

This is where you will set how the store behaves when no user is logged in and the shopper wishes to check out. If no user is logged into your store and the shopper goes to check out, this setting determines whether a) a new user registration form is displayed or b) a login prompt is displayed. Setting this to yes will display the new user registration form when a shopper goes to check out and they are not already logged in.
