I want anonymous users to be able tho add products in their basket and view it's contents. <b>But when they choose checkout they should be forced to register a user to continue the process.</b>

I'm unable to get this working in 3.6, is it possible?

Thanks in advance :)

have you tried user accounts, roles and policies
set:

shop all functions No limitations

for anonymous users?

Thanks for your reply :)

This seems to produce the same result as having the policy, shop -> buy on Anonymous role. This works but it still does not force the user to register.

<i>What I really want to happen when the user checkout is a redirection to /user/login.</i>

Me best guess is that this can be done with policies but I'm unable to find the correct combination.

I think I got a little to hung up in policies. I think the solution is to use a different </i>shopaccounthandler</i>. (This setting is found in the shopaccount.ini file)

<b>I've tried using ezdefault, but then I'm no longer able to add items to the basket and/or view it.</b> Even though I give anonymous user no limits in the shop module

<i>Do I have to roll my own shopaccounthandler?</i>

<b>No new handler is needed ezdefault seems to do the trick</b>, what I experienced was as follows (and I must say it behaves a bit strange):

- Add products
- View basket
- Checkout

on checkout /user/register is shown, if you ignore it and contine to add products in your basket your are no longer able to view it's contents .....
