Checkout Text Link Broken When using SSL

[Darren B]

OK

Just noticed a problem with the horizontal text link for the view cart, there appears to be a problem with the GA code and script.

The link works fine when SSL is turned off, but is mangled when i turn it on. I have searched the forum and not found this only one about the checkout button but alas it did not help. the checkout button works for me on the view basket page it is just this link. I have reverted to factory default, copied the code from another pc, but nope.

Does anyone here have any ideas or pointers.

Cheers

It seems to work OK using IE7 and Vista although I do get the 'Done, but with errors on page' warning - Line 55 expected ;

Thanks Andy

Im talking about the link at the top of the page in the horizontal text navigation

not from the checkout button in the basket

The link from view basket at the very top of the screen works for me in FF but I only see [ ] instead of [check out]

I have sent a snapshot to support, it all works fine if i turn SSL off, i have been through all the revert to factory default and checked its using the v9 layouts not upgraded v8 but nothing

im guessing it is the GA code thats screwing it all up when mixed with ssl

thanks though Jont, od though i see the checkout bit, did not notice that before

im guessing it is the GA code thats screwing it

There have been several issues with the inbuilt GA code

I ermmm sort of noticed the ongoing GA threads, im still not sure why the data is not 100%, google gives me conflicting results depending on which bit i look at.

Hi Darren - this is a known problem and is an unfortunate consequence of Google switching their code half way through us doing the integration.

You need to replace the entire contents of the <a...> tag (just the opening <a> tag) in the code of your Checkout link with the following code:

<a href="<actinic:variable name="OrderLinkText" />"<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20True" > target="_top"</actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%21%3d%20True" > target="_self"</actinic:block> onclick="pageTracker._link(this.href); return false;">

Thanks Chris

Sorted now, Iain from support sent me the fix earlier. When i was testing it was not something i checked either and to be honest did not realise the live site had it after i released it

I must add to this thread -

We have been all sorts of probelms with the checkout button and GA.

Tech. support are working on a fix for me. I am hoping that it will be soon.

Is this thread still valid. I have the same issue but if I replace the code I end up with a 404 page not found error.

Which <a> ref get replaced in which layout?

Here's the code for 'Checkout Image Navigation Button':

<actinic:block if="%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleAnalyticsEnabled%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20false%29%20OR%20%0d%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleAnalyticsEnabled%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20true%20AND%20%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsSplitSSLSubdomain%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20false%29" >
<a href="<actinic:variable name="OrderLinkText" />"
<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20True" >
 target="_top"
</actinic:block>
<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%21%3d%20True" >
 target="_self"
</actinic:block>
 onmouseover="SwapImage('nav_checkout','<actinic:variable name="CheckoutIconImageHighlight" />')" onmouseout="RestoreImage()"><img src="<actinic:variable name="CheckoutIconImage" />" alt="<actinic:variable name="CheckOutText" />" border="0" name="nav_checkout" /></a>
</actinic:block>
<actinic:block if="%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleAnalyticsEnabled%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20true%29%20AND%0d%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsSplitSSLSubdomain%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20true%29" >
<a href="<actinic:variable name="OrderLinkText" />" <actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20True" >target="_top"</actinic:block> <actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%21%3d%20True" >target="_self"</actinic:block> onmouseover="SwapImage('nav_checkout','<actinic:variable name="CheckoutIconImageHighlight" />')" onmouseout="RestoreImage()" <actinic:variable name="GoogleAnalyticsMarkup" value="Google Analytics Checkout Link" />><img src="<actinic:variable name="CheckoutIconImage" />" alt="<actinic:variable name="CheckOutText" />" border="0" name="nav_checkout" /></a>
</actinic:block>

and here's the code when you just want a basic text link:

<actinic:block if="%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleAnalyticsEnabled%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20false%29%20OR%20%0d%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleAnalyticsEnabled%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20true%20AND%20%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsSplitSSLSubdomain%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20false%29" >
<a href="<actinic:variable name="OrderLinkText" />" <actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20True" > target="_top"</actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%21%3d%20True" > target="_self"</actinic:block>><Actinic:Variable Name="CheckOutText"/></a>	
</actinic:block>
<actinic:block if="%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleAnalyticsEnabled%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20true%29%20AND%0d%28%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsSplitSSLSubdomain%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20true%29" >
<a href="<actinic:variable name="OrderLinkText" />"<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20True" > target="_top"</actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22RemoveCustomFrameInCheckout%22%20%2f%3e%20%21%3d%20True" > target="_self"</actinic:block> <actinic:variable name="GoogleAnalyticsMarkup" value="Google Analytics Checkout Link" />><actinic:variable name="CheckOutText" /></a> 
</actinic:block>

You'll also need to delete the entire contents of 'Google Analytics Checkout Link'.
