View Full Version : Position of the Quantity Value

At present the Quantity value shows up above the component drop down menu's

As the Quantity is the trigger to the purchase, I am afraid that some will enter the quantity first before selecting the components

Is there a way to display the quantity below the components ?

Regards

Chris

Thanks for that but all gibberish to me. I guess what I want is a ADD To Cart button rather than the order being made by entering the Quantity

Found the problem, just stupid at this end

I had the settings to single "Add to Cart" at end of page and never went down that far

Thanks

I am using Clean Layout 4 and Quantity on Product Page. agiftislove.com (http://www.agiftislove.com)

I also would like to move the Quantity Box for each Product RIGHT ABOVE the Buy Now Button. I went into the above link and didn't see anything about the Quantity Button.

Can you please help?
Thanks

The most likely culprits are the <p> tags that are in Act_CartButtonImage.html.

Open this template and remove the <P> from tbe beginning of the code and the </P> from the end of the code.

Nope. Didn't Work. Take a look at the individual products on my site www.agiftislove.com (http://www.agiftislove.com/acatalog/catalogbody.html)

There are a lot of components/attributes under the quantity checkbox - especially for my angel collectibles.

I really need to get the Quantity Checkbox RIGHT ABOVE the Buy Now Button

Any other suggestions
Thanks

OK Bonnie. I didn't know you were using attributes and choices. This changes things.

What you need to do is locate the following variables in your product layout template:

NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTQUANTITY
<Actinic:ACTIONS>NETQUOTEVAR:ADDTOCARTBUTTON</Actinic:ACTIONS>

Change this to read...

NETQUOTEVAR:VARIANTS
NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTQUANTITY
<Actinic:ACTIONS>NETQUOTEVAR:VARIANTADDTOCARTBUTTON</Actinic:ACTIONS>

That should do it.

Chris,

Must be a bad day. I have searched through the Actinic Help Menu and the Advanced Part, and the Knowledge Base, and I cannot find the product template layout???????

I've probably been in it a hundred times, but today I am lost.

Thanks

Chris,

Using Clean Layout 4 and Quantity on Product Page. Website:
www.agiftislove.com (http://www.agiftislove.com)

I found the product layout template in Act_ProductLine.html

Here is what is in there. I cannot find portion above you are telling me to change:


<!-- ProductLine HTML begin -->
<!-- Insert HTML for the top of the individual product -->
NETQUOTEVAR:INCLUDE Act_ProductSeparator.html
NETQUOTEVAR:ENDSEPARATOR
NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTFORMBEGIN
<tr>
<td colspanspan="3" width="500" valign="TOP" align="LEFT"> NETQUOTEVAR:TEMPLATEBEGINXML NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTIMAGE <a name="NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTANCHOR"><span class="left"><b>NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTNAME</b></span></a>
<span class="actxxsmall">NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTREF <p>NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTDESCRIPTION NETQUOTEVAR:EXTINFOLINK</span>NETQUOTEVAR:EXTINFOBUTTON

<img src="email_friend.gif" alt="email a friend" width="161" height="21" border="3"

+ '&body=I just saw the following unique gift item - NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTNAME - at '

+ 'and thought this and their other unique gifts might interest you.';">
<span class="actxsmall">NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTBEGINLINKNETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTLINKTEXTNETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTENDLINK

<br></span>

</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td align="LEFT" colspan="2"><span class="actxsmall">

<Actinic:ACTIONS>NETQUOTEVAR:ADDTOCARTBUTTON</Actinic:ACTIONS>
</span>
NETQUOTEVAR:TEMPLATEENDXML
</td>
</tr>
NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTFORMEND
NETQUOTEVAR:NEXT
<!-- Insert HTML for the bottom of the individual product -->
<!-- ProductLine HTML end -->

Sorry to be a pest,
