Hi,

I recently configured xcontinueshoppingdynamic = "Yes" to enable continue shopping URL but found few situations where it does not always make sense.

For example, if I am on shopcreateorder.asp page and click "Edit" to edit my cart and then click continue shopping, I am redirected to shopcreateorder.asp page instead.

Similarly, if I am visiting a content page and click on view cart and then click continue shopping I am redirected to the content page I was visiting.

Is there a way I can only have last product or category page visited saved the xcontinueshopping field?

Thanks,

Faisal Ali

Fali,

It needs some hard coding to get it done.

Put these lines at the top of the shop$db.asp file:

''Set backpage for continue shopping button in cart
dim curl, cqstring
curl = request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME")
cqstring = request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING")
if cqstring <> "" then curl = curl & "?" & cqstring
if instr(curl,"shopdisplayproducts")>0 or instr(curl,"shopdisplaycategories")>0 or instr(curl,"shopexd")>0 then
setSess "continueshoppingpage",curl
end if


The last visited product page is saved in a session value.

Then modify your shopaddtocart.asp file:

''Find out where we came from
sub SetContinueURL (ContinueURL)
dim pagefrom, words(20),wordcount

''Return to last visited product page
if getSess("continueshoppingpage")<>"" then
pagefrom = getSess("continueshoppingpage")
else
pagefrom= request.servervariables("http_referer")
end if

ParseRecord pagefrom, words, wordcount,"/"



Existing lines are in blue, new lines to be added in red.

Kind regards,

Erik

Thanks Erik for your help on this.

I am using VPASP SEO module so my pages have SEO friendly URLs. I modified your code to work for SEO friendly URLs:

shop$db.asp:

dim curl, cqstring
curl = request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME")
if instr(curl,"products") > 0 then
setSess "continueshoppingpage", curl
end if

shopaddtocart.asp code is same as yours.

Thanks!
