The checkout step numbers are not consistent all the way through with the first step number not showing once moving to step 2.

This can easily fixed and makes things very clear to the customer by matching each cartlistnumber to the cartlistname.

Also it is not necessary to show the number then "/3" especially when using the checkoutsteps (xxCoStp1,xxCoStp2,xxCoStp3) so either remove this or provide an option to disable would be good.

Hi John, I think that's been addressed

The checkout steps are not displayed during checkout, for instance "1/3" and so on.

Hi Dave,

Not on the latest 7.1.8 download it's not. Plus the "/3" is not addressed.

Hi John, I get what your saying and the cart you linked to is nice, however the software already has the ability to turn off the checkout steps by just removing the parameter from the includes. Now removing the 1/3 that's a different issue, I work with several site that do not use the checkout steps so for those having 1/3 works great. Just checked and ECT does not use checkout step

There is also using css to hide the 1/3 if using checkout steps in the includes with out affecting the includes directive.

div.checkoutstep {
text-align: left;
display: none;
}

Hi Sinbad,

I know all this already however the issue is that the number disappears on step 1 when moving to step 2 and 3 which is inconsistent.

As for the number styling this could easily be added as an includes variable instead of being hard coded. That way we can choose "/3" or "of 3" or "" depending on how you want to inform your customers.

Hi John,
Perhaps you will find the solution to your issue in this thread : https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/support/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=112381

Hi Gary,

If you have a look at the checkout as suggested then you would have seen this already has been done and enhanced with some very nice css to show progress and also matches with the cart numbers and names.

The issue maybe just an oversight but currently the cart number disappears when moving to step 2 and is inconsistent with the other steps. The other issue is to get Vince to be more consistent when implementing things such as using the language file instead of hard coding for example “/3”... This cuts way down the number of mods required for each release and makes the code easier and more flexible for everyone concerned.

John

Hi John and all
Thanks for all your input but yes, this was really just an oversight and the "/3" is now defined in CSS where it belongs really. The changes are in v7.2 and you need a new ectcart.css and inccart.asp/php file. You can download the v7.2 updater in the usual way now.
