Add to Zen Cart Cart from main site

[mkyle]

Hi,

is it possible to have a link on a product on my main site that when clicked would add the item to the zen cart shop cart and take you to the checkout pages

Thanks, Martin

If you mean by "main site" = page outside zencart, then no.
But you could link to product of your choice, so goes to
that product in your zencart install.
Reason: Add to cart is done via sessions in zencart, so if you
are on outside page, sessions are not called.

Thanks for the quick response. What would be the easiest way to link it to the product in the zencart install

Thanks Martin

Well as don't have url of your zencart site, rather difficult
to quote code, plus what sort of link do you want.. text/image?

Call up the desired product in your browser.

In the address bar of your browser will be the http PATH to that page:-

http://www.yourwebsite.com/index.php...&products_id=4

That's your hyperlink...

If you just require text link then fairestcape's
link is correct.. add that code and associate
to an image if required.

Just don't include the zen id in the link you use. You can chop that off the end of the url.
