Link to merchant, category and brand
Submitted by cq on Tue, 2008-09-09 06:17.Price Tapestry
Hi David,
How can i link to merchant, category and brand page from the header.php
The first two works for specific category.
<td>
<a class='hmenu' href='/search.php?q=category:Electronics:'>Electronics</a> |</td>
<td>
<a class='hmenu' href='/search.php?q=category:Fashion:'>Fashion</a> |</td>But not for the following links. When i click the link and click the category in the category page, it return back to homepage.
<td>
<a class=='hmenu' href='/category.php'>Category</a></td>
<td>
<a class=='hmenu' href='/merchants.php'>Merchants</a></td>
<td>
<a class=='hmenu' href='/brands.php'>Brands</a></td>
</table>How can i solve this problem.
thanks
jack
Hello Jack,
If you are not using search engine friendly URLs, the only problem I can see with your second block of code is the filename used in the category link, which should be categories.php.
However, if you are using search engine friendly URLs, then you must link to the search engine friendly version of these pages, for example:
<td><a class=='hmenu' href='/category/'>Category</a></td>
<td>
<a class=='hmenu' href='/merchant/'>Merchants</a></td>
<td>
<a class=='hmenu' href='/brand/'>Brands</a></td>
</table>
Hopefully that is all it is!
Cheers,
David.
