Show Basket page instead of Conformation Page

[lessharma]

Sorry Guys, I had a look on the forum for this answer but couldn't find it.

At present on my sites when you click 'Add to cart' it takes you to a 'Conformation Page' with the options CONFIRM | CHECKOUT NOW | CANCEL, could this page be the 'Show Basket' page instead with more options UPDATE | SAVE | RETRIEVE | CONTINUE SHOPPING | CHECKOUT NOW ?

Yep - change the default 'Shopping Mode' in 'Design | Design Options' to 'Quantity on Confirmation Page'.

Then also check that none of the sections have a different shopping mode within the 'Page Settings' tab of your sections.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for that, but how do I swap the 'conformation page' for the 'show basket page' after you press 'Add to cart'.

Changing the shopping mode is the way to show the 'View Cart' page after adding to cart.

Thanks Chris,

Two little Q's.

1. Where is the master 'Use parent setting' for Shopping Mode in page settings controlled from?

2. Also if I tick 'Quantity in Shopping Cart' upload the site and then click 'Add to cart' I get this message.....

A General Script Error Occurred

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Error: Tiny Tulips Tibetan Pinafore:
Invalid order details

Press the Browser back button and try again or contact the site owner

I must of edited something wrong along the way as this error doesn't happen on any of my other sites if I use 'Quantity in Shopping Cart'.

Hmmm - the only thing I can think of is that you are missing the <input type="hidden" ...> field in your product layout that sends the default product quantity to the shopping cart scripts. This is the only bit that's different when changing shopping mode.

Can I see a URL with the problem happening? Or maybe you could check your product layouts for the following code:

<input type="hidden" name="Q_ProductReference" value="DefaultQuantity" />

If it's missing, this could be causing the error.

Hi Chris,

This is the URL of the page...

http://www.starbabies.co.uk/acatalog...nk_Stripe.html

Not sure what is wrong.

Add to cart works fine in other modes, just not in 'Quantity in Shopping Cart'.

THe problem is with the hidden field used for product quantities

This is what is generated online

<input type="hidden" name="Q_<MM:BeginLock translatorClass="ACTVARIABLE" type="Actinic Variables" depFiles="" orig="%3Cactinic:variable%20name=%22ProductReference%22%20/%3E">

Yuk!

You need to look in your product layout and find the code that inserts the hidden quantity field into the store page. To do this, you could right-click on the layout and select 'Find' and then look in the layout for 'Q_'. It is a hidden form field you are looking for that looks something like:

<input type="hidden" name="Q_ProductReference" value="DefaultQuantity" />

When you find it, replace the html tag with:

<input type="hidden" name="Q_<actinic:variable name="ProductReference"/>"  value="<actinic:variable name="DefaultQuantity"/>" />

Thanks Chris, That's working perfect now!


One simple last question.

Where is the master 'Use parent setting' for Shopping Mode in 'Page Settings' controlled from?

[cdicken]

It's in 'Design | Design Options'.

Hi Guys,

I am having a simiar problem, the URL is:HERE

When you click on add to cart, the invalid order details error appears.

I have replaced the Default Quantity Actinic code with

<input type="hidden" name="Q_<actinic:variable name="ProductReference"/>"  value="<actinic:variable name="DefaultQuantity"/>" />

as suggested, removed any commented code and purged and refreshed the site.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance, This forum has proved to be an invaluable resource

Tracey,

Have you been able to sort this one as yet? It looks like you are on v8.5.1 HERA, please upgrade to HFUA as this will sort the issue for you. You can try replacing <actinic:variable name="ProductReference"/> with <actinic:variable name="ProductID"/> and then it will work, the upgrade will make this change for you.

Kind regards,
