Linking back from cart to extended info

[pixelhaus]

I have my site set up so that the products are bought from the extended info pages.

Is it possible to:
A: Make the continue shopping button on the cart return to the product page as opposed to the extended info page that it came from ?

B: Where the product appears in the shopping cart, make the text-link connect to the extended info page for that product as opposed to the product page ?

Richard,

As for point A) there are 2 options, you can use the suggestion for a javascript add in on this thread http://community.actinic.com/showthread.php?t=1100 or else you can follow the Knowledge Base article on the following link.. http://knowledge.actinic.com/acatalo...383.html#a1019

As for point B) I will run this past development and see what they have to say but it would most probably be a wish list item.

Kind regards,

I have the same problem.

I would also like to be able to link the "also bought" and "related items" lists back to the extended info page.

I have tried using

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

Which works for the lists on the extended info page for the product but causes an error when in the shopping cart or checkout pages.

Is there an alternative variable I can use in these pages to link back to extended info?

When the customer hits 'continue shopping' I'd want them to go to the last but one page. (They purchase from an extended info page, but I want them to be returned to it's section page)

Now, the part of the script that controls this is :

my $sURL = $::Session->GetLastShopPage();

Is there anything that would do the equivalent of GetLastShopPage-1 ?

Bump

I too would be interested.

Many thanks

Browser history function

I have not tested this, but shouldn't it be possible to use Javascript to access the browser history?

javascript:history.go(-2)

OK - Now got this working

It was not the 'Continue Shopping' button from the 'View Basket' page which was the issue here but rather the Bounce page location after someone buys from an Extended Info product page.

I Followed the Knowledge base article for How do I change the URL to which a customer is bounced once they 'Add to Cart'?

And set the target URL to "javascript:history.go(-2)"

Works like a dream.
