Custom buy link button?

[emilg_fsdg]

Hey guys, 

 

Fairly new to the awesome Prestashop platform. I am using 1.6x version. 

 

I am using Prestanshop as a 'portal'. So , currently, Prestashop is running in catalog mode.

 

The actual cart&shopping functionality is being dealt by a separate reseller, so I do not need any cart functionality in Prestashop; only use Prestashop to showcase the products and show the prices (already found how to show prices in catalog mode).

 

What I need now  is to create one buy 'button' in all products' pages, which would re-direct all customers to the actual reseller's website. The buy button link would be the same for all products.

 

Ideally, a buy button to replace the 'add to cart' would be the best idea, is this possible?

Of course, it's possible.

But all of buttons will be linked to the same URL or different URLs?

If so, what is the rule here?

[emilg_fsdg]

Thanks for the reply. All buttons linked to the same URL, yes

So, one buy button for each product page, all with the same URL.

Oh, so just simply go to each template files and edit or override it by yourself. 

You also can develop a module, using javascript to insert the buttons on fly, but it's a bit complex if you are not familiar with that.

 

cheers,

Yeah..well.. I m a graphic designer mostly, so I should have first declared my level of expertise in web development..its very very basic

So any help in implementing that link would be appreciated.

There are actually several places you have to edit in your theme.

For example:

- Homepage

- Category page

- Search page

- Comparison page

- Product page

- Product page > tab Accesories

- Manufacture page

- Other modules:

 + Related products

 + New products

 + Bestsellers

etc...

 

I think you should pick up one of them and play with that, then if you have any trouble, post your specific question here, people will join and help you out.

 

In my opinion, you should try with product page first.

Locate the code where the button (Add to basket) is.

Try to add your own code there.

 

Hope this helps!
