Magento Terms and Conditions Missing
This was an interesting issue we ran into recently while building an E-commerce site for one of our clients. Typically “Terms and Conditions” is easily enable in the administrative section by first going to Configuration -> System -> Checkout ->Checkout Options and choosing yes to enable “Terms and Conditions”. Then going to Sales -> Terms and conditions and typing in your terms. With our setup, we were able to choose yes to enable “Terms and Conditions”, but we were not able to see the option under sales to fill in a list of terms.
The only fix that worked for us was to log into phpMyAdmin, and add the following values.
1 2
insert into checkout_agreement values (null, 'Terms and Conditions', 'These are your terms!!!', '', 'Yes/No', 1, 0); insert into checkout_agreement_store values (1,1);
Simply change ‘These are your terms!!!’ to the terms that apply to your site, and that’s it.
You can also write in HTML at this point, and use this fix to display things like hyperlinks, fonts, etc.
Hey guys-
Saw this article and am experiencing the exact same problem..but your fix doesn’t seem to have solved it! Anything I’m missing that could explain the no-show of the sales->T&C menu item?
Unfortunately this fix won’t allow you to see or edit your sites “Terms and Conditions” in the administrative area. Meaning, our fix doesn’t enable GUI administrative access. But what it does do is allow you to display your “Terms and Conditions” during the checkout process, following manual insertion of the data. If you’re uncomfortable with editing your database directly via phpMyAdmin, which is absolutely understandable, we DO NOT recommend this fix. But adding the value to the correct table should enable this functionality.
So to our commenter, are you able to see the data in the appropriate table after you’ve made this modification? And if so, is it Exactly as you see displayed above?
Same here! After 2 years of running magento without a slight error I updated it and added a new theme … and now – the described problem occurc.
Will try the workaround via database …
Thanks!
