Telephone Numbers

[Kevin M. Bell]

Is there a way to set the telephone number as a required field? Some
customers don't leave the number, but I need it for the shipper (FedEx).

Hi Kevin,

I had the same problem. As far as I know you cannot make this field a
required one, so I did the following workaround: In the ShopSite ->
Preferences - >Store Text -> Billing look for Phone Number, in the field
type something like:

<b>Phone number</b> [required information for FedEx delivery]

or something similar, this will make the customer aware of your logistic
need for the phone number. Since I have set up our cart like this, all
customers give us the phone number without the field being required

Regards from Germany,
Niko

Thanks, Niko. I figured that would be a possible work around. I'm glad to
hear it has worked well for you. I've made the appropriate changes.

Danke!
