Sleeping Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 My boss gave me the directive to make our store as fool-proof as possible (selling software, we have "dumb users"). That means that I must make the shortest path from login to receipt as short as possible. With regular (non-digital) products, I have a path of 6 pages : - Login - Index (products_listing) The customer can only buy 1 product, so clicking on "Buy now" directly leads to : - Shipping information - Credit card information (billing address has to be same as shipping) - Confirmation - Receipt We plan on offering digital products, but we'd like to keep the same "fool-proof-path". However, clicking on the "Buy now" button of a purely digital product leads to the products_info page. I suspect this is because making a product downloadable requires the addition of a product attribute, and "Buy now" always redirect to products_info in the case of a product that has attributes to force the customer to select the proper attribute. However, since the only attribute this products has is to be downloadable, so there aren't even any drop-down boxes in the products_info page. Is there a setting that I missed that marks a products as having only "downloadable" as an attribute and therefore not requiring the use of products_info or is it something that I would have to code (which I can do, I would just like to save the effort if possible)? Thanks a lot. After three days without programming, life becomes meaningless. -- The Tao of Programming
