Order step validation

Order step validation exists to make sure users cannot modify the underlying HTML of your checkout process to skip order steps.

To prevent this from happening:

• Go to Settings > Ecommerce > Advanced Configuration > Shopping Cart
• Check the Enable step validation checkbox (Figure 1.1)

It’s advisable to combine this with making the Payment method ID field a required in your validation group.
