Customer address details from an ebay order should be stored in the customer database for future use.
I have noticed that when an order comes through from ebay whilst the address details are present on the order/invoice etc they are not filed on the customer record. So if I later go to view the 'customer' only the 'General' details are filled in, address fields are blank.
It would be nice if the address details were stored as they are when a customer signs up to the opencart store - for future orders (ie customer calls up to order). Is this possible?

Hey Dan,
Sadly, this crosses over into data protection territory and eBay need to respect the details given are for orders/shipping only. Should a customer LOVE what you sell and return to your store and create an account - great. However, OpenBay Pro wasn't set up to create accounts within OpenCart to expand on client portfolios as it is used to manage your marketplaces from one location and stock and order management as well.
We can't see this being added in the immediate future, we can only advise that maybe you have a flyer within your packaging to tempt traffic with offers to view your website - a great way to go the extra mile and build a loyal customer database.
