Thank you, I ended up just modifying the template_default settings which got me to where I wanted to be for the most part. I am pretty much done, just looking to finish up some UI finishing touches, and I did find some code that looks like it could be of great help for those looking to create an automatic return to their original page during a transition during checkout, however for the life of me I cannot seem to interpret how to implement it correctly. My formatting is correct, I am just not understanding how this code works. I feel there is a step missing between inserting this in my header_php.php file in checkout_process. Like setting the $_SESSION['been_here'] value on the originating website perhaps?
I am wanting my header_php.php file to be able to use an if statement to determine which code to process, however the only variables or values I can seem to easily utilize are SERVER_NAME or template_dir, both of which do not distinguish between the same website (one version has &template_dir attached to the url which causes the template_default files to load, but $template_dir is still listed as that of which website the url is associated with in the config_sites file, so putting ```
<? php if ($template_dir =='website3') {
```isn't going to work in this instance.) Perhaps there is a simpler way to go about this, although I did not find anything on calling specific modules/pages functions outside of php if statements in the file itself. If there could be a way to set different modules/pages to be called per template (including a template default one, that would be the easiest solution I think. Or a way to just define a different $template_dir to the default_template system.)
Surely there is a solution that doesn't require me to actually learn to code :shocking:
```
if (isset($_SESSION['been_here'])) {
$server_name=$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
$len=(strlen($server_name));
$domain=substr($server_name,strpos($server_name,'.'),$len);
$origin='www'.$domain;
if ($server_name != $origin) {
zen_redirect('https://www'.$domain.'/index.php?main_page=checkout_process');
$_SESSION['been_here']=1;
}
}
```

> Solution: Added some lines of code to checkout process to see if the transaction is originating from the main site. If not, remember which sub-domain it came from -> switch to the main site -> process -> switch back to the sub-domain.

> If anyone is interested, it's generic code provided you use the main domain/sub-domain approach. I wouldn't want to do it any other way, since it would be a security risk if it worked for just any domain.
