}Payment Method Selection in Checkout
To allow customers to switch their payment method during checkout, a payment method selection can be enabled. This can be activated using the TypoScript constant themes.configuration.extension.shop.checkout.paymentSwitchInCheckout. Currently, the two values title and description from the orderOptions configuration are used in the TypoScript to provide selection labels. Additionally, the default payment method, which is selected first when the checkout process is initiated, can be specified in the TypoScript constant themes.configuration.extension.shop.checkout.defaultPayment.
Frontend Users with Login
If a customer is already logged in at checkout, their data from the user record is automatically entered into the order form. This data is read-only, as there should only be one central point for editing.
To allow the customer to adjust their account data, a profile editing page can be integrated using the EXT:modules extension (as is common in large online stores like Amazon, Shopware, Shopify, Aimeos, Magento, or PrestaShop). This extension should already be installed, as it is a dependency of the store. Once the corresponding TypoScript constant with the page ID has been configured, the link will appear. The constant entry could look like this: themes.configuration.pages.profile = 1947.
If you are using a different extension for profile editing, no problem. Then you still set the target page via the TypoScript constant themes.configuration.pages.profile or directly via setup TypoScript with, for example, plugin.tx_modules.settings.pages.profile = 1947.
