Customize Shopping Cart Template

[CatchingUp]

I am new to this and am having a hard time locating where I can customize the shopping cart template. I want to remove the Buy Now button that goes to 'More Information' and insert the PayPal Buy Now button.

Can anybody please help??? Thanks.

What you want is more than a template customization. It requires customization of the checkout process. PM me if you are interested in getting a quote for doing this.

In my mind this should be easy. You can create a Buy Now button on Paypal that connects to their site. I just want to take this button I have already created and use it to replace the one that is on the Shopping Cart template.

The "Buy Now" button is not an image on any template. It is rather a form "submit" button that triggers the "More Information" process.

So what I guess I am trying to get to is what script actually writes the html for that page and for the submit button and where do I find it.

Thanks for your help. BTW - Do I score this thread to acknowledge help?

Yes. AFAIK, there are two places (may very well miss other places -- never looked too deeply into this):

1. public_html/sohoadmin/client_files/shopping_cart/prod_search_template.inc
2. public_html/sohoadmin/client_files/base_files/pgm-single_sku.php

The above folders are permanent holding place folders. They are also in these runtime folders:

1. public_html/shopping/prod_search_template.inc
2. public_html/pgm-single_sku.php

See the following for reference:

Never used this... :)

Frankly, I am the last one in the world to answer this, but with what seems like centuries of setting up other shopping carts, I think I can give you the answer.

If you have more than one item and you want each one to have it's own BUY NOW button, you are going to have to go to the PayPal Button Factory and make one for each item.

And you are going to have to copy the button HTML code into each item's long description box.

I may be way off base, but that is the only way I see the Buy Now thing working, since each button is a specific form for each item.

I found the script and was able to somewhat modify it. It isn't perfect, but it works. Thanks.
