I need to duplicate the onepage checkout function in CE 1.3.3 and want to be able to access it via domain.com/index.php/checkout/onepage-variant in order to be able to customize onepage without disturbing the core onepage checkout files. This is is already in a dev environment and creating another store is not an option.

What would be the best way to approach this?

And advice will be greatly appreciated!

Edit: Just to clear things up further what I need is 2 functioning instances of onepage checkout. We're going to be doing testing based on 2 different customizations and see which one works best.

  • New routes = cheap & easy. OPC = big & complex. Can you provide any further details? – benmarks Nov 20 '12 at 02:02
  • @benmarks Yes what Ive done is created a copy of the onepage.phtml and named it onepage-variant.phtml. Is it possible to create a route to go to this new phtml file using the url "http://magentostoredomain.com/index.php/checkout/onepage-variant/" ? – Sam Vaidya Nov 20 '12 at 13:52
  • @benmarks Actually I finally got what I wanted by creating a new CMS Page labelled "Onepage-Checkout" and inserting layout xml for the onepage checkout with amendments to point to the duplicate phtml files and the onepage-variant template folder. I can now customize the variant phtml files without disturbing the core onepage checkout. I can access my variant using SEF url. Thanks for your input! – Sam Vaidya Nov 20 '12 at 16:33
