Hi, I'm using PS1.5.6.2 with standard theme installed. I'd like to make the password field NOT mandatory/required when creating an account in front office and comment it out, therefore forcing a manual password input and completion of the account creation process in the backoffice. I need to assign each user to a group to limit the categories they can see BEFORE they log in and this is the only way I can think of to do that. I've purchased the 'Private Shop' module for Prestashop (using PS 1.5.6.2) which allows you to 'force' a user to login to your shop ... perfect so far. Unfortunately, as per normal account creation process, once the account and password is set up you can log in to the site straight away. This is why I need the password field to be marked as NOT required/mandatory and commented out in the account creation section. Is this possible or even the best way to go about this ... ? I've managed to edit authentication.tpl in themes/default to comment out the mandatory password field, but it also needs to be marked as 'false' somewhere else ... and I have no idea where! I'm getting the error: There is 1 error password is required. Please help! Thanks, lock-e73
