Optimized Checkout Extension

This Magento extension gets users through checkout quicker, increasing sales by reducing abandoned cart items. Maximize profits on your Magento store by making checkout clearer, simpler, and easier to understand. Optimized for the latest Magento release

Part I: First Things First

  1. Log in to your Magento admin

  2. Navigate to System > Cache Management and Disable All Cache

  3. If you have the compilation enabled, make sure to disable it

  4. Log out of the admin. Don't Forget This Step.

Part II: Upload

  1. Using any FTP client, upload THE CONTENTS of the folder "ultcheck" to your Magento root directory. NOT the folder itself - just the content!

  2. Then upload THE CONTENTS of the "ultnotes" folder to your Magento root directory. NOT the folder itself - just the content!

Part III: That's It!

Now log back in your Magento admin and navigate to System > Configuration > Optimized Checkout for the extension's settings.

Plug & Play If You Use A Custom Template

The extension has a "plug and play" mode which will replace one file from your theme:
app/design/frontend/your/theme/path/template/checkout/onepage/billing.phtml

If you don't want that file replaced for whatever reason, then disable the plug and play mode and compare your theme's billing.phtml file with the Optimized Checkout billing.phtml located here:
app/design/frontend/base/default/template/checkout/onepage/billing.phtml

You only have 2 small chuncks of code to add:

<?php // ULTCHECK ?>
<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('login') ?>
<?php // ULTCHECK ?>

And this:

<?php // ULTCHECK ?>
<?php if($this->helper('ultcheck')->isUltcheckEnabled() && $this->getQuote()->isAllowedGuestCheckout()): ?>
<li class="control">
	<input type="checkbox" class="checkbox" name="login[register]" id="login:register" value="1" title="<?php echo $this->__('Register') ?>" onclick="toggleRegister(this)"<?php if (Mage::getStoreConfig('ultcheck/general_settings/default_method')=='register'): ?> checked="checked"<?php endif ?>/><label for="login:register"><?php echo $this->__('Register with us for future convenience') ?></label>
</li>
<?php endif ?>
<?php // ULTCHECK ?>
