new user profile on checkout

[jpeters]

Hello,
as far as i know phoca cart uses regular Joomla account creation for creating new users.
so if a non-existing user whants to checkout and would like to create a account (enabled user registration in Joomla user management) the user can select on checkout to create a new user profile.
so far so good, but after register the account (because you get redirected to joomla core user create) the user is not in checkout anymore. then the user (self registered) has to go to checkout again to checkout.

if this is the current way of working, perhaps a feature request.
on checkout simple add a option (create user profile) on checkout page. based on the information there will be a user created on the backend without redirecting the user. so the user completes the checkout and the user will be created.
or otherwise integrate user create inside the checkout page.

Hi, the problem is, we need to use Joomla registration feature for this - with all the features includes. The problem with custom registration forms in Joomla is, they will be never up-to-date and can be different to Joomla user registration in time This is why we don't duplicate user registration and let Joomla create it. So we are 100% sure, there will be no difference, no problem, no security issue, etc. - not now and not in the future

So this is maybe much more a question of discovering if there is no other way - something like some user plugin which allows to add a link to checkout or add a redirect to checkout (after registering, etc.). Something like this plugin:

Just some plugin which can interact between Joomla user management and Phoca Cart checkout.
