You can add the following into the text description area of the product

!!<<a href="http://www.site.com/cgi-bin/ss000001.pl?PRODREF=ZZZZZ&amp;NOLOGIN=1">Funky Product</a>>!!

where the "1" in ss000001.pl is the script number found in network setup
where ZZZZZ is the product reference

HTH

sorry for asking again but i cant get it to work

This is what i have put

!!<<a href="http://www.cardcraftplus.co.uk/cgi-bin/ss000000.pl?PRODREF=EM4051&amp;NOLOGIN=1">Quilling Papers</a>>!!

but the link goes to a page saying page cannot be found??

please can you help??

Is that the correct script number? It will usually end in a "1" eg ss000001.pl check under Advanced | Netwrok Setup | Common Settings | CGI Script ID Number

[jont]

Just checked your site at it is indeed a "0" at the end of the script

[jont]

Looking at your site your scripts are going through /scripts/ and not the cgi-bin .. try changing that in the above code to see if it resolves

yep thats deffo the right number!!

I tried with the amendment from cgi-bin to scripts and after two SSL certificate errors, landed on the cardcraftplus login page - that is probably correct. The NOLOGIN=1 is used to prevent customers on your site being logged out by an internal link.
