After talking w/ sarasioux from WBR today, I was able to code in some extra features to the customer info checkout pane. Store owners can now let customers specify either a new username, password, or both and display a nice little help message letting them know what's going on. These values will override the username and random password normally generated.

This is in Bazaar... feel free to test it and offer up feedback/suggestions. Development sponsored by your friendly neighborhood Warner Brothers. Eye-wink

Just a quick note to say this feature has been updated so the entry fields don't show up for users already logged in. Silly mistake. Sticking out tongue

Also, checkout messages have been updated to have configurable input formats. This means you can use any filter (including PHP) for the checkout, review, and completion messages. This should make checkout a lot more flexible, and I may take out the specifiable landing page for order completion now.

Peace.

Developed against the Bazaar version, but it's my hunch that if you grabbed the latest uc_cart_checkout_pane.inc and used it in 7e it should work just fine. If not, be careful updating to the full Bazaar version just for this, as a lot has changed for the Workflow integration.
