"Where did you hear about us?" List box

[horr80]

Hi I'm interested in putting a list box with contain valid "Where did you hear about us?" entries. Currently the uses have a free format field and I would like to get them to select from a list of "Google", "Yahoo", "Friend" etc

If anyone can help it would be great.

Hi Richard

Try this :

1. Switch to the Design Tab in the software and select Checkout Page 2 from the Select Page Type drop-down.

2. Scroll down the Preview window and click on the "How did you find our site" reply field.

3. You should now have the 'General User Definable 1' layout displayed in the pane below. Find the line :

<input type="text" name="GENERALHOWFOUND" size="40" maxlength="255" value="<Actinic:Variable Name="GeneralHowFound"/>" />

4. Replace this with something like :

<!--<input type="text" name="GENERALHOWFOUND" size="40" maxlength="255" value="<Actinic:Variable Name="GeneralHowFound"/>" />-->
<SELECT NAME="GENERALHOWFOUND">
<option></option>
<option>Google</option>
<option>Yahoo</option>
<option>Others</option></select>

You can replace the above choices with values of your own.

5. Apply changes and upload the site. Customers should now be displayed a drop-down instead of a free-format text-field.

Hope this helps.

Hi
I have just implemented the above onto one of our brands and it works fine on website. I expected it to show when offline orders were placed as well but it doesn't. Do you think I have done it wrong?

if you've entered it in the checkout phase, Donna, then no..you did it right. the "other info" questions don't come up on offline orders anyway

[Donna Kempster]

Shame, would remind me to ask people when they phone.



P.S. Done many service washes today?

[Donna Kempster]

Much more like Frank Butcher (only joking Lee) ...... (u can tell the last time I watched it!)

No worries Pat, no offence taken.

I was gonna say Arthur but I think he's dead, isn't he?

I think he is Peggy yes.

I'd rather be Grant.

Sorry to drag it back to the original discussion - I have tried to implement as described and it appears fine online, but does not appear to download and show-up when an order has been placed and the reports printed.

James,
it only appears on the packing list (not the invoice)
do you print one of these?
Is it not showing in the "Misc" tab of the order details?

Whereabouts did you add the code in the checkout?
