Magento-1.9 Checkout Onepage Checkout Shipping Methods CE-1.9.1.0 – Remove Shipping Steps in Onepage Checkout

ce-1.9.1.0checkoutmagento-1.9onepage-checkoutshipping-methods

I'm using CE 1.9.1.0.

I'm trying to remove the Shipping Information and Shipping Method steps from onepage checkout but with no success.

Perhaps someone could help me out or point me in the right direction?

Here is what I've done.
I removed the shipping step and used a default shipping method that I know is always going to be available.
Not sure if this is what you need but you can at least use it as a starting point.
Here is my idea.
I created a new module with an enable/disable shipping step config setting, so you can always re-enable the shipping step from the system->configuration section.

So create the module StackExchange_Checkout.
You will need the following files.

app/etc/modules/StackExchange_Checkout.xml - the declaration file

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <StackExchange_Checkout>
            <active>true</active>
            <codePool>local</codePool>
            <depends>
                <Mage_Checkout />
            </depends>
        </StackExchange_Checkout>
    </modules>
</config>

app/code/local/StackExchange/Checkout/etc/config.xml - the configuration file where you define models, blocks and rewrite the onepage checkout block. Also it sets a default shipping method.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <StackExchange_Checkout>
            <version>0.0.1</version>

                </rewrite>
            </checkout>
        </blocks>

                </StackExchange_Checkout>
            </modules>
        </translate>
    </frontend>

Magento – Onepage checkout: how to start checkout from shipping method

I don't know any module, however you could find a way to include or reorder the checkout process as explained below. It could help you to develop a solution.

I wanted one day add a step in the middle of the checkout process. At the moment, there is no official way to do it, I mean you don't have any events which allows to change the behavior.

The solution I found consist to modify the class Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage_Abstract. Attention, it's not a classic model, it's an abstract, you can't overwrite it by using the tag <rewrite> in config.xml file.

So, you have to copy the file app/code/core/Mage/Checkout/Block/Onepage/Abstract.php to app/code/local/Mage/Checkout/Block/Onepage/Abstract.php, edit the file by adding (if you use Magento 1.5) or editing (if you use Magento >= 1.6), the method _getStepCodes as showned below. In this case, you can change the order of the steps, add your own or remove steps. Take care of the consequences of such changes.

abstract class Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage_Abstract extends Mage_Core_Block_Template {
...
/**
 * Get checkout steps codes
 * diglin - method took from Magento 1.6 but add a dispatch and $transport to allow to hook the code
 * 
 * @return array
 */
protected function _getStepCodes()
{
    $data = new Varien_Object();
    $data->setStepCodes(array('login', 'billing', 'shipping', 'shipping_method', 'payment', 'review'));

    Mage::dispatchEvent('checkout_onepage_stepcodes', array('transport' => $data));

    return $data->getStepCodes();
}
}

EDIT

The code I provide here was a code proposed to Magento core team to allow customized steps, that's one of the reason why the Mage namespace and the Abstract are used.

The block checkout/onepage class is also rewritten:

class Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage extends Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage_Abstract
{

/**
 * Get 'one step checkout' step data
 *
 * @return array
 */
public function getSteps()
{
    $steps = array();
    $stepCodes = $this->_getStepCodes();

    if ($this->isCustomerLoggedIn()) {
        $stepCodes = array_diff($stepCodes, array('login'));
    }

    foreach ($stepCodes as $step) {
        $steps[$step] = $this->getCheckout()->getStepData($step);
    }

    return $steps;
}

public function getActiveStep()
{
    // diglin - add the $stepCodes to provide custom step
    $stepCodes = $this->_getStepCodes();
    return $this->isCustomerLoggedIn() ? $stepCodes[1] : $stepCodes[0]; //custom / billing Step or Login Step 
}

Magento 1.7 – How to Remove Steps from Onepage Checkout

Try to rewrite below block files with following functions:

Rewrite class Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage_Billing

    public function canShip()
    {
        return false;
    }

Rewrite class Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage_Shipping_Method

    public function isShow()
    {
        return false;
    }

Rewrite class Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage_Shipping

    public function isShow()
    {
          return false;
    }

I hope now issue related to progress will not occurs.
