Button Link – Redirecting to Another Site

[VelmaG]

I think this feature is absolutely brilliant, however there is one thing I’d like to change.

It says that it will redirect the “Add to Cart” button. This seems backwards to me. When it’s clicked it takes the customer to a different page where they have to buy the product.

It would make more sense to me that it redirects on a “Buy Now” button rather than the “Add to Cart”. They’re not adding anything to the cart. They’re actually leaving the site and going somewhere else.

Is there any way for me to change this? I did test it with the Buy Now Fancy, and it only works on the Add to Cart Fancy.

Thanks.

First of all when you click on a button and it directs you to a page it’s neither an add to cart button nor a buy now button. It is just a button that will send the visitor to a page (This is useful when crating a shop with affiliate products).

So all it’s doing is giving you the option to create a button that just redirects. Do you see how the type of button doesn’t matter here anymore?

This page explains more on the type of buttons in case you are wondering:

Basically,

-> use a button image that says whatever it is that you want to say

-> use this button image for this product

-> make this button a redirect button

Remember, your customer doesn’t know anything about what shortcode you are putting on a page. All they see is a button with your specified image and when they can click on it.

I tried using the “buy now” button, and the redirect didn’t work. I had to switch it to an Add to Cart button.
