hello, i've been trying to skip some checkout steps but have had little success with 👉 https://guides.solidus.io/cookbook/redefining-checkout-steps from guides anyone who can help on a way forward??

What exactly is the issue you're having? Are the steps not getting skipped? Are you able to skip them and there's something unexpected happening?

am not able to skip any step with the specified method

can you share the code you wrote?

on app/model/spree/order_decorator.rb

I thought you said you followed the guide, that code doesn't look like anything in the guide. Did you follow a different guide?

yes i did at first then changed after reading the solidus core order.rb model. I did as the guide stated but there was no change.

I'm not removing any checkout steps, but I am adding one. My file is

/app/decorators/embold/spree/order_decorator.rb

and it starts with

module Embold::OrderDecorator
  def self.prepended(base)
    base.insert_checkout_step :verify_address, {
      before: :delivery
    }

I wonder if your decorator is in the wrong spot. The guide points to a spot similar to what I'm using.

following your example, this is what i have on

/app/decorators/malimali/spree/order_decorator.rb

module Malimali::OrderDecorator
    def self.prepended(base)
        base.remove_checkout_step :address
    end

    ::Spree::Order.prepend self
end

for context i'm using solidus starter frontend. still it doesn't skip checkout step address.

At this point I'm not sure, I would have to start doing some general debugging to see if the decorator is even getting included. I usually add something like

<http://Rails.logger.info|Rails.logger.info> "some message here that I can search development.log for"

good idea, i think that is the problem. i'll try to solve this, i hope when i come back you'll bear with my ignorance. Thank you for now.

No worries, we're here to help each other. Good luck! 🙂

hey Omari, any luck solving the issue?

no, still struggling

@Omari Mubutu finally had the chance to test it myself and the issue is that you need to tell Rails to load your decorators. You can achieve that by adding the following code:

# config/application.rb

module SampleSolidusStore
  class Application < Rails::Application
    config.to_prepare do
      # Load application's model / class decorators
      Dir.glob(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "../app/**/*_decorator*.rb")) do |c|
        Rails.configuration.cache_classes ? require(c) : load(c)
      end
    end

    # ...
  end
end

have been away; and this works now. thank you 👍
