Shopping Cart

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to set the cart so when a customer adds to cart, they are directed to the cart with the option to continue shopping or checkout?

 

At the moment when you click on add to cart it looks as if nothing has happened, however if they look in the cart the item will be there. I think customers are confused and don't realise they have placed the items ready to checkout.

 

Any info appreciated.

 

Thanks.

 

John.

Hiya

Do you have any contributions installed?

Or worked on the site, has this always done it?

Nic

not sure what you mean by contributions Nic. Site has been like this since I got the template.

Template!

In that case, depending on where you got it from, it could be a mess of code!

Have you been in touch with the suppliers?

Nic

yes but they just sell the templates and don't have much technical knowledge. I will look through the php files and see if there are any settings in their that give the answers, trouble is I'm not sure where to start.

John,

Check the code in

catalog / includes / application_top.php around line 335 you should see

 

if (DISPLAY_CART == 'true') {

$goto = FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART;

$parameters = array('action', 'cPath', 'products_id', 'pid');

} else {

$goto = basename($PHP_SELF);

if ($HTTP_GET_VARS['action'] == 'buy_now') {

$parameters = array('action', 'pid', 'products_id');

} else {

$parameters = array('action', 'pid');

}

}

 

its the switch that controls the feature you want.

Make sure that

A) its there

B) it has not been commented out

 

Regards

Nic

Hi Nic,

I checked the code and it seems ok. If I pay you do you think you could go in and have a look. If so I will contact you through your site and give you log in details.

 

Let me know.

 

Thanks

 

John.
