In my new site, I want to have nothing other than create_account (which will be only name, email, password) and checkout_confirmation.

What I then want is to have the customer go to their order_history to pay. Here I envisage payment via a button for each payment method offered;

[ click here to pay by paypal ]
[ click here to pay by RBS Worldpay ]

and so on. Once paid, all buttons disappear.

Anyone developer already done anything like this? Any input appreciated.

OK, so far halfway there. I stripped out the create_account page to the bare minimum;

As I don't need any addresses for my particular business. I could have gone further and stripped out the password to, but I just decided to make it easier and put a "random" password link instead.

Once filled out, the account is created and goes direct to checkout_confirmation.php (where the payment is made).

create account > confirmation > paypal > success

I want to change to

create account > confirmation > order_history > paypal

So remove the payment until AFTER the order is made. Get rid of the success page.

My idea is as I put in the previous post, to have a button by the order history to say "pay now". When paid, the button disappears and instead is shown as "paid".
