Screen: ShopSite > Commerce Setup > Order System > Shipping Page
Customers enter addresses and other order-specific information on the Shipping Page.
Billing Address |
Select the name and address components that you want to collect for a billing address, and check the boxes for those that are required. You can also set the maximum length of each component. |
Ship Only to Billing Address |
Check this box to prevent customers from entering a separate shipping address, so that orders can only be sent to the billing address. This option can help to prevent credit card fraud, as a stolen card can’t be used to ship products to a different address. However, this option also prevents customers from ordering a product as a gift and having it sent to someone else. |
Bill Address Displayed Above Shipping Address |
If you do not check "Ship Only to Billing Address," the shipping screen displays the billing address and shipping address fields next to each other in two columns. If this does not fit your page layout, check this box to have the billing address display above the shipping address in a single column. |
Use Billing Text |
If you don’t enable the Ship Only to Billing Address checkbox, the shipping screen will have fields for both a billing address and a shipping address. There will also be a checkbox that customers can use to indicate that the shipping address is the same as the billing address, instead of having to enter all of the address information twice. Enter the text here that you would like customers to see next to that checkbox. |
Shipping Address |
Select the name and address components that you want to collect for a shipping address, and check the boxes for those that are required. You can also set the maximum length of each component. |
Footnote Value |
Enter the HTML and text that you want ShopSite to use to indicated a required field in the billing and shipping addresses. |
Footnote Text |
Enter the HTML and text for the footnote that explains that a field is required. |
If the order form for your store appears in a frame, the customer's browser may not display the "secure connection" icon (a small key in the status bar), even though the order form is served from a secure sever. You can use this option to have the order form open in a new window or come to the top of the frames, either of which will show the secure connection. |

Text at the Top of the Shipping Screen |
You can customize the text that appears on your customer's shipping/billing page in this field. You can use this field to create a header, or you may want to give them brief instructions about the shipping and billing fields. |
Create Customer Comments Box |
Check this box to display a text box on the shipping page for customers to enter comments about payment or their overall shopping experience. You can ask for specific information or give instructions by entering text into the "Text at the top of the Shipping Screen" field. |
Create an add to e-mail list box |
Check this box to add a checkbox on the order form that customers can use to request to be added to your e-mail list -- an "opt-in" e-mail marketing program. When you are viewing or downloading orders, you can see which customers checked the box, and then you can add their addresses to your mailing list. Note that you can define the text that appears next to this box, so you can use it for purposes other than an e-mail list.email list opt in |
Add to e-mail list box checked by default |
Check this box to have e-mail list checkbox checked by default, so that customers are automatically consenting unless they uncheck the option on the order form. |
Text displayed for add to e-mail list |
Enter the text that you want displayed next to the e-mail list box. |
Text at the Bottom of the Shipping Screen |
You can customize the bottom of the shipping page with your store's footer, or include final reminders before the customer places his order. |
Custom Checkout Fields |
You can use custom checkout fields to add your own form fields to the ShopSite shipping/checkout screen. See Creating Custom Checkout Fields for more information. |
Javascript added at start of built-in CheckIt function |
You can insert additional JavaScript here to enhance the functionality of the CheckIt function which verifies that required fields have valid content. See Shopping Cart JavaScript Variables for a list of the built-in JavaScript variables generated by ShopSite. |
