Note: The following document applies only to merchants that signed up prior to 04/12/2006 have access to the version 1 and 2 checkout flows.
If you wish to revert to your former checkout flow, you can do so by following these instructions.
To disable Checkout Manager:
- From the Store Manager, click the "Checkout Manager" link.
- Click the "Disable Checkout Manager" link in the gray box (see figure 2).
- Click the "Disable" button.
- Click "Proceed" after reading the warning.
- Click "OK" to return to the Store Manager.
- Publish your order settings.
- If you use the Store Editor to build your store, you must publish the Store Editor as well. Republishing will change the URL of your item order buttons from order.store.yahoo.net to order.store.yahoo.com.
Note: Before you enable Checkout Manager, you will see a gray box on the Checkout Manager hub with links to testing and enabling Checkout Manager (see figure 1).

After you have enabled, the content in the gray box will change to "disable Checkout Manager" (see figure 2)

Notes:
- If you use Store Tags to build your store pages, the order button URLs will be updated automatically. However, any order buttons that you may have customized (such as for multiple add to cart) will need to be updated manually.
- If you sell downloadable goods while Checkout Manager is enabled, customers will no longer be able to download those items if Checkout Manager is disabled. Merchants will need to make alternate arrangements to provide those goods if customers have not already downloaded them. Orders for downloadable goods placed after disabling will be available for download.
