(Solved) Add link to "My Account" in CMS Block


Recommended Posts

I Really did try to research this myself, but spent hours looking at posts that were not related to what I am trying to do. :wacko:

 

I want to get rid of the "user account block" on the top, because I feel it is redundant to have a "log in" link, a "my account" link, and a "cart link", when the cart block is right below it. I know how to turn the "user account block" off, but I need to have a link somewhere, so my customers can sign into their accounts.

 

I would like to add the line "My account" to my CMS block and have it link to the customer sign-in page. I have re-named the CMS block "Information", and I feel a link to sign into your account belongs there. But I see that the CMS Block only allows you to link to a page you create, such as "about us", terms and conditions...etc... When I create a "Your Account" page for CMS, and add in the friendly link to the page ie: "my-account", it creates a new page called" my account", and links to /content/my-account.

I am comfortable editing tpl. & php files if needed. I just need some direction.

 

I just need to know how I can create a hyperlink to the "my-account" page in my store. ;)

 

Thnaks in advance,

Kathleen

i suppose you could do 1 of 2 things

 

1) edit the cms block module and hard code a link in there

2) create a cms page called (my account) and leave the content blank. then using htaccess you could create a redirect from the cms page to the real my-account page.

Thank you! I will investigate these options, and if I run into problems, I will be asking for more help ;)
