Redirect Issue

Hi Christy,
Did you look into tryig the .htaccess file like I suggested.
It sounds like your having more problems then you had
to begin with.

James,

I'm very sorry I wasn't clear. This problem concerns our second website, Uniform Corner

We have a generic code that will give anyone who logs in 10% off our entire catalog.

Until the new version of Developer comes out which will make mass discounts easier, the customer right now has to sort of bumble through it when filling out info in the cart area, but it does work sufficiently.

Tryout username: store password: promo

I don't want it going to our catalogbody.html, but to this page, however I want the discount to extend to all items on the site.

Thanks again!

Christy

It would probably be a lot easier if you set up the 10% discount as a Price Schedule within Actinic, and the gave all registered customers this Price Schedule, giving everyone that logged onto your site a 10% discount.

James,

The 10% discount is set up as a price schedule within Actinic. It works well except for I am unhappy with the page the customers reach when they login.

John,

I have had trouble getting support from my ISP on alterning the .htaccess file, but am still trying!

Redirect

Hi Christy,
Do you have FTP access to your web server?
I seriously recommend pursuing this method
of redirect.

It is so much easier to write one line of code
in the htaccess file, rather then do all the
mods people are recommending.

I'm sure those mods would work but why
go through such a big hassle.
I use redirects all the time for basically all
of my clients in one way or another.

I am assuming that your site is on a UNIX
server... right? If it isn't, never mind what I
am saying here. Otherwise... I wish you a
speedy solution to your problem.

I have read all the posts in this thread at least twice and it has got me really confused.

Copy the code required to login to an HTML file and call this file whateveryoulike.html

Now create the login button or use the one you have to link to whateveryouwant.html

OR

am I missing something

p.s. The .htacces file is much neater and easier than hacking scripts to death

Hi Christy

I created a basic logon from the home page as described in the Knowledge Base.

When clicked, it will take you to the Logon page, which you then enter you Username - Test, and Password - Test.

I have made it so it takes you to the page of my choice when loging on - 'Products with optional extras'.

Please take a look http://barlc09.users.netlink.co.uk/james/index.html

Once logged in, the 10% discount that you have allocated to registered customers will apply throughout the site.

I found that this works fine.

James
