Can I set a default payment method for my customers rather than it remembering the last one used?

You can set the default payment method by doing the following:

* browse to your site folder and locate 'Session.pm'

* open it in a text editor such as notepad

* search for:

($key eq "COUPONCODE") || # and coupon code

* add the following on a new line after the above:

($key eq "METHOD") || # and payment method

* close and save the file

* then edit 'ActinicOrder.pm'

* search for: 1952

* you should see:

my $sSelectLine = ACTINIC::GetPhrase(-1, 1952); # "<OPTION VALUE='%s'>%s\n"
my $nMethodID;

* add a new line under this:

my $nDefault = "10005";'

* 10005' is the ID for 'Credit Card Details Captured for later Processing'. You can get the ID's for the payment methods from the Help file | Exporting Data | Fields in the Order Export | look for the 'Payment Option' field in the 'Order File'.

* close and save this file

* update your site

The default payment method will now be shown for each customer and not what they have used on a previous order.
