Need help to upgrade to allow extended info pages

[susan]

I have been advised to the following but not sure how ot do this is it within the back office of sellerdeck or on a file and upload by ftp ??

You are using a different version of the SellerDeck than what I have programmed for you originally, so don’t know if the upgrade you have conducted will affect these links or other things, but this should work based on your selecting the extended info page elements and how it is to be displayed within the software, so hopefully this will work but can not guarantee that:



<actinic:block if="%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ProductListNameLink%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20%202%29" ><br/>

<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ExtendedInformationType%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20%22Opens%20in%20a%20Pop%2dUp%20Window%22" >

<a href="<actinic:variable name=ExtendedInfoPageEncoded />" target="ActPopup" onclick="return ShowPopUp('<actinic:variable name=ExtendedInfoPageEncoded />',<actinic:variable name="ExtInfoWindowWidth" />,<actinic:variable name="ExtInfoWindowHeight" />);">

</actinic:block>

<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ExtendedInformationType%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20%22Opens%20in%20the%20Same%20Window%22" >

<a href="<actinic:variable name="ExtendedInfoPageName" />">

</actinic:block>

</actinic:block>



The above is also included in the attached text file for ease of copy n paste.



Add this code fully into the layout called ‘FG Product Page Product Layout’ directly below/after the ‘ProductDescription’ marker and directly before/above the ‘RealTimeStockDisplay’ marker, so add a line between those and then paste the code provided into it.



Make sure you take a backup of the layouts/site before making the change so you can revert if you make a mistake.



Review it on a product which you have enabled the full settings for extended info page on and also check through all of your existing products that you have not enabled extended info on other products by mistake with no or bad content etc, just to be sure.



This will allow the extended info text/link to be displayed at the base of the main product description.

The code should be added to the back office through the Design Tab (between Content and Orders. However which version did you upgrade from and which version are you now on. You clearly have a custom layout there so it is quite possible it will not be upgraded correctly, if you upgraded to Sellerdeck 2014 and then applied a responsive them then this layout will not even be active.

OK but should that be for every product page with an extended page or just once osmewhere on another page.

Essentially Sellerdeck is a template system which with the blockif system allows a single template to cover all options.

Reading the original post your designer has given you the details, you only need to enter the code into the layout ‘FG Product Page Product Layout’ once on any product page, it should then affect all products using that layout.

Then I suggest you need to involve the developer to sort it out.
