SalesCart Product Page

A SalesCart product page displays products, and is where shoppers add items to their carts. A SalesCart Product link embodies all of the specific product definitions and the logic to display the products options, attributes, prices, quantity, auction, discounting and other product specific definitions for a particular product.

The following procedure will edit the existing product page created automatically by SalesCart. However, it also applies to any SalesCart product page that you create on your own. Any web page you create with products on it, that has at least one SalesCart Product Link on it, and that is saved with a .aspx extension is a SalesCart product Page. The most important thing that differentiates a normal html page from a SalesCart product page is that it is saved with .aspx extension.

After you run the wizard and select Create New Pages and New Settings, your first "demo" SalesCart Product Page template has already built for you by the SalesCart Wizard. To edit the existing "blank" SalesCart Product Page, follow these instructions:

Note: If you insert the product link inside of a form, SalesCart "may" not work properly. Information passed on to the checkout pages will be associated with a form within a form. This may be useful in advance situations but not normally. Start your Web design program, open your website and double-click open the mall folder.

Note: Never edit a SalesCart Product Link directly from the HTML mode. Doing so may prevent you from easily upgrading in the future or cause the product to function incorrectly.

  1. Double-click on productpage.aspx in the /mall folder.
  2. Go to the place on the page that says Add a Second Product Here. Place the cursor where is stays place your cursor here on the webpage or any where you would like to place the product link.
  3. From the SalesCart menu, select Add Product Link.
  4. You may make copies of the existing product page and save it with a new name and a .aspx extension. However, any page with a product link on it and that is saved with a .aspx extension will work with SalesCart.
  5. If you have existing pages, simply rename them to have a .aspx extension and then add the SalesCart Product Link appropriately to the page where you want customers to be able to buy your products.
