Related product link to Single Product page

[Quantum]

It worked fine for me after I made the change and nothing else was affected.

I was using the Smart Theme at the time.

shopping cart related product etc links to ex info page

Hey I manage to fix it using the tread below.

http://community.actinic.com/showthread.php?t=34477

But I can't seem to be able to change it the same way to the

1. Description’s product list
2. AlsoBought
3. RelatedProduct

in the checkout page: <actinic:variable name="SearchCGIURL" /> to <actinic:variable name="ExtendedInfoPageName" /> without getting code error message saying it won't work there!

Any ideas How I could fix this?

Hi,

I've just tried replacing:

<actinic:variable name="SearchCGIURL" />?PRODREF=<Actinic:Variable Name="ProdRef"/>&amp;NOLOGIN=1

with

info_<actinic:variable name="ProdRef" />.html

and it seems to work. This does rely on your extended info page names being generated by Actinic and you not changing them and also that you are not using customer accounts as it is a direct link and not using the search script to determine if someone is logged in or not.

Changing the shop cart description’s product link to Ex Info

Thanks for your reply Tracey.

I manage to change the coding/link in the 'AlsoBought' and 'RelatedProduct' section of the shopping cart but I could find and change it for the 'Description’s product list'.

I keep getting <Actinic:Variable Name="DuplicateLink"/> on the {Link to product}

Where would I find the <actinic:variable name="SearchCGIURL" />?PRODREF=<Actinic:Variable Name="ProdRef"/>&amp;NOLOGIN=1 part for the 'Description’s product list?

Cheers

Hi,

That's actually in one of the perl scripts.

- browse to your site folder and locate 'ActinicOrder.pm' (take a backup)
- open the file using a text editor such as notepad
- search for:

$sProdLinkFormat

- you should see:

my $sProdLinkFormat = "<a href=\"$::g_sSearchScript?PRODREF=%s&NOLOGIN=1$sShop\">%s</A>";

- replace this with:

my $sProdLinkFormat = "<a href=\"info_%s.html\">%s</a>";

- close and save the file
- update your site


Actinic is not able to provide any detailed support for script changes made. If you find that there is a problem, an original copy of the script can be found within the 'Original' folder in your installation. Copy this into your site folder or restore from your backup.

The Quick search results products links

The Quick search results - the product link (from the list) are also linking to the section page instead of the extend information single product page. Where do I find the code to change for this and how?

Cheers,

Hi,

For the search results try the following:

- go to the 'Design' menu and select 'Library'
- on the 'Layouts' tab, expand the 'Search Results' group (click the '+')
- double-click on the 'Standard Search Results' layout to edit it
- look for the 'SearchResultLink' variable (around line 9 on a default layout)
- replace that variable with:

<a href="<actinic:variable name="CatalogURL" />info_<Actinic:S_REFNUM/>.html">

- click 'Apply'.

You also need to make a script change:

- browse to your site folder and locate the 'SearchScript.pl' file (take a backup)
- open the file in a text editor such as notepad
- search for:

$ACTINIC::B2B->SetXML('ImageLine', $sImage);

- directly below this line add:

$ACTINIC::B2B->SetXML('S_REFNUM', $$rarrResults[$nCount]);

- save and close the file
- update the site.

quick search result links from duplicate products link

Thanks Tracey that did the trick for my last web site!

But with my new web site there is a section called ‘Anniversary Offers’ - http://www.everything4leisure.com/ac...ry_Offers.html
which is full of duplicate products which of course link back to the original products in their ‘real’ sections.

If the quick search pick out a product from the Anniversary Offers section (where all the duplicate products are) it will show the link for it and also the link to the same product (the original) in from its ‘real’ sections on the search result page (both link to the same extend information single product page of course). The problem it that the link from/to the Anniversary Offers doesn’t work, (which is the most important link as it the special offer link and customers will click on that one first!) but only the link from/to the original section works.

To see what I mean try searching for shoes for example on this test website:
http://www.everything4leisure.com/acatalog/test

Quick search is on the top right.

And the search result will come up with these two links (for the same product) :

1.Pair of Casual Shoes(Anniversary Offers)£51.06
2.Pair of Casual Shoes(Shoes)£51.06

1.Pair of Casual Shoes(Anniversary Offers)£51.06 – DON’T WORK!
2.Pair of Casual Shoes(Shoes)£51.06 – DO WORK!

Does anyone know how to fix this please?

Cheers,

Ron

You can set in search settings to not have duplicates indexed for the search.

Missing tumbnails image in search result!

Help!

I did my script change ('SearchScript.pl' file) as shown by the last TraceyG post (#22 of this thread) and it did made the links works to the full product page which is great.

But the product's tumbnails images in search result list disappeared!

They were there working ok before I did the script change which was to add the line:
$ACTINIC::B2B->SetXML('S_REFNUM', $$rarrResults[$nCount]);
directly below this line
$ACTINIC::B2B->SetXML('ImageLine', $sImage); as mention in the TraceyG post (#22 of this thread).

Here's example from one of the website I had built with this little problem:
http://www.campingstore.co.uk/cgi-bin/ss000001.pl?REFPAGE=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.campingstore.co.uk%2F&page=search&SS=book&search.x=0&search.y=0&search=ACTION&PR=-1&TB=A

Any ideas how to make the tumbnails images reappears again?
