Buy now button in main page products

[soki]

This thread will be the support thread for a new contribution/add on I make for adding a buy now button in main page products listing (New Products, Featured Products, Specials Products, etc...).

Instructions here: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...oducts_id=1440

You can see the add on in action on my web site http://www.easytechnology.gr/index.p...ex&language=en

haven't tested this yet but does it enable users to purchase a product directly rather than with any other items that may be in the shopping cart?

_thanks

Add the product to shopping cart, if have more products in cart will not change them.

Sweet Contribution...just what I was looking for. But can I position the button on the side of the image. I've been cssing for 42 hours straight and know it's somewhere...but if you have a shortcut, that would be amazing.

I also wanted to display part of the description (like the specs of the product and attributes). I'll look into this and will hopefully have some feedback.

Thank you,

As I mention in the contribution is an extension to this original thread http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123392 , he uses css and product description but i have not include those to my contribution to make it simplier for users to install it. So please take a look in the thread http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123392

Hope you good luck

Hi

I'm trying to add this to my shop - when I do so, I get the button as required, however the whole grid of the site falls apart! It's like the containing frame isn't big enough to hold the extra Buy Now Button...

Does anyone else have this or better yet any advice on how to fix??!

Thanks

If you use some other contribution that modifies the main page may need to do some changes. For example I use also the column divider add on and have problems because some products had false product id, for example the real product id was 750 and when I clicked the buy now button in main page the product id was 71000.
I manage to overcome that by deleting this 2 lines
$r_params = str_replace("50", "100", $r_params);
$r_params = str_replace("33", "100", $r_params);

in includes/templaters/YOUR TEMPLATE/common/tpl_columnar_display.php

Please check if something similar happens to you with some other add on.
