Here is a reply from Viart after I showed them the Snapshot of how OPC should work.
=======================================
Dear Ibn Saeed,
Thanks for contacting us with the details.
At present, it is not possible to specify payment details on one page and users are redirected to another page to submit them, therefore the main difference will be in the payment details that a user can submit on the same page where all other details for the order are submitted.
Id addition, you should have noticed that all other details on your image are already available on the main order profile page.
Regarding 2CO and other payments this question does not relate to ViArt shop, but rarther depends on the payment system and its capabilities to support all parameters we can send to the systems.
Please, feel free to contact us on any further questions.
With kind regards,
Anjula
ViArt Support Team
=============================
From the above reply, I think this feature is going to the dump.
I really dont know how the Viart team interpreted "One Page Checkout" to work initially when they quoted me the price.

I think I might have just saved $60.
If I had not already missed the boat I would put it towards the "Introduce a friend - with a reward" feature.

I don't understand it looks now like it's a 2 page, 1 page checkout?
I'm in if it is 1 page.

Actually no, I read that as it will be one page, at present it isn't?

Ok, so i am in, lets go and split the difference, who wants to wait for another 2 people, could be months

I am confused with Viart's response.
Is it a One Page Checkout or 2 Page or 3 Page(Present system).

Anjula's response appears to be a confirmation of where Viart is now - not what could be coded for you?

I guess this feature will get dumped as well.
Chris, did you check the Snapshot ?
How can a feature such as One Page Checkout require an extensive explanation.
Its simple, one page checkout with all the required steps on One page.

If someone else wants to take over this feature, do so. Im out.

At present, it takes Viart 4 mouse clicks and the complete checkout process goes through 4 pages.
Now, what I originally wanted was that the Present 4 page checkout procedure to be turned into One Page checkout.
Here are the pages which Viart goes through.
1). Checkout :: Login
2). Checkout :: Personal Information
3). Checkout :: Payment Details
4). Checkout :: Confirmation
According to Anjula's explanation of their "One" Page Checkout.
Anjula's Quote:"
therefore the main difference will be in the payment details that a user can submit on the same page where all other details for the order are submitted."
So according to Viart, the new Checkout would be:
1). Checkout :: Login
2). Checkout :: Personal Information
3). Checkout :: Payment Details
I think Anjula should provide a detailed explanation on HOW they interpret the One Page Checkout procedure.

Ibn Saeed - I think that we all understand you. At least for me you are very clear.
I do wonder just how much language is an obstacle?
Ibn Saeed

I do think that the language is an obstacle.
Now can anyone explain what Anjula meant by the following quote:
"
Id addition, you should have noticed that all other details on your image are already available on the main order profile page."
I think by image she means the Snapshot.
Which main order profile page is she talking about. Is it
Orders > Order Profile Page

Do you know a live shop that does it exactly as you want? It might pay to give a link (to us ) and Anjula?
