Built-in Features / Re: Delivery addresses and rat...
Last post by Basara - September 22, 2025, 01:54:35 AMHello.
When a customer orders as a guest (without registering an account), they are asked to enter an address during checkout, and this information is reflected in the order and the invoice.
For registered customers, during checkout they can select an existing address or add a new one. When adding a new address in their account, they can also enter another recipient's name. This way, both billing and delivery addresses can be managed separately.
If this is not working in your case, please provide a screenshot or a short screen recording and explain the issue in more detail so we can help troubleshoot further.
Regarding your note about delivery options:
"Also we have set delivery options and applicable rates but they come up only on the order form"
This is expected behavior. Delivery charges are shown at the checkout step because rates depend on the delivery address, and different customers may have different shipping locations and applicable rates.

Last post by Basara - September 22, 2025, 01:47:41 AMThe Encryption Data Manager is a built-in extension in AbanteCart. You can find it under:
Extensions > All Extensions in your admin panel.
If, for some reason it was removed or is missing, you can download the extension files directly from GitHub and place them under the /extensions directory of your installation: Encryption Data Manager on GitHub
Important: Before setting up or changing your encryption key, make sure to back up your database using your hosting control panel tools. Once certain data is encrypted, it will not be accessible if the encryption key is lost.

Last post by CC-Don - September 19, 2025, 03:19:24 PMWe are a gifting biz and we have customers who order gifts from us to be delivered to others at their receiving address. We need this reflected in our order forms to process. Also we have set delivery options and applicable rates but they come up only on the order form as it is and the delivery charges aren't being added to the product prices. Your help will be very much appreciated.

Thank you for the details. The upgrade has successfully replaced the patched files, so the security fix is already applied. We've identified an issue on some servers where the version number is not being updated correctly in the interface.
To correct this, please manually edit the file: core/version.php and update it to:
