    Destination of Login button

    When clients login, we would like them to be redirected to the store portion of the site and not back to the index page. How can I change the "Login" button so that it redirects the user to somewhere other than index.html?

    Can someone please help me out. This is causing major design flow problems with the site. I have to get this resolved today (Wednesday). I've got a number of issues outstanding and my client has said that the site must be live by midnight tonight (it was supposed to be in place by May 1). I'd appreciate any advice anyone can spare on this or the other issues I've posted over the past couple of days. Thanks.

      This is normal behaviour of the login link.

      The way to take people into the store and login is to create a brochure fragment on your home page that says something like 'Log in and enter the store'. Make the URL of the fragment link something like:

      http://your.URL/cgi-bin/ss00000x.pl?SECTIONID=index%2ehtml

      Naturally replacing http://your.URL/cgi-bin/ss00000x.pl with the URL of your ss00000 script.

      This will take people to the front page of the store and log them in on the way.

        Chris...my code is already http://www.gen-dia.com/secure/cgi-bi...D=index%2ehtml but it takes me back to the home page, not the store page. It always used to but doesn't anymore since we went to 6.1.2. Am I doing something wrong here?

          Anyone have any ideas on this? My client is freaking out. I have to get this so that after someone logs in, they're directed to the store (or where they came from) and NOT the home page. HEEELLP!

            Panic not.

            Try going to 'Help | Troubleshooting' and clicking 'Purge Session Files'. This will remove all session files (which store where Actinic thinks the base URL of the store is) and start all your customers off with a clean sheet.

            Also, try the following link for the login:

            http://www.gen-dia.com/acatalog/index.html

            I can't find the example username and password you gave me, but I think this will take people into the store afterwards.

              URGENT

              Chris...it didn't work. You can try it with the username/password of test and test. I'm 2 days past the client's deadline and they're having a fit. I have to get this sorted out. Is there a way that I can hard code the login so that it just goes to the store page (Test_Kits.html)? I've really got to get this working.
