my jump won't forward on

Hi Mally, and Happy New Year to everyone!

It looks like you are using a customised jump.php that is hard coded to be expecting to be running in the top level folder of your website instead of /shop/ where it is currently installed for this site. Rather than use an absolute path to /includes/common.php; if it is reverted to the relative version that should do the trick - check for the following at line 2;

...and REPLACE with:

Hi David,

Happy New Year :)

I've rechecked and corrected the files, but it still wont forward, although the link appears correct. If I do it from my PT shop it clicks and forwards, very strange...

If you goto {link saved} and click on Visit Store, it works. the link is {link saved} , if you try and click on that it doesn't forward

Hi Mally,

I see jump.php is now working and links from the standalone Price Tapestry installation are working fine; but I couldn't find the plugin container permalink in order to test a buy now link from a plugin generated product page; I tried /shopping however I was wondering perhaps if you may have used /shop in which case the installation folder of the standalone Price Tapestry installation would need to be changed as they cannot be the same (otherwise the actual folder /shop/ takes precedence over the virtually generated version of the same name by the plugin). Something like /pt/ would be ideal where you don't intend visitors to ever see the Price Tapestry installation.

Also note that at the current version the container permalink and virtual pages must be at a single level below the WordPress installation, e.g. /shop for the container page (the page containing [pto] and e.g. /merchant, /category, /brand etc.

Don't forget to ensure that Permalinks are set-up in the WordPress installation and the appropriate .htaccess in place - after going to wp-admin > Settings > Permalinks choose an appropriate option (Numeric is ideal) and WordPress will either automatically create .htaccess for you (if it has the appropriate file permissions) or display the contents to create.

If you're still not sure; if you could post the URL of your container permalink (e.g. /shopping and a plugin powered product page where the Buy URL is not working I'll check it out further...

Cheers,
David.

Hi David,

currently the site I'm using is not using the pt plugin, its simply a wordpress theme where I have exported the results from PT as a .csv and imported them into the site. So the buy link on the wordpress page simple links to the PT buy jump.php url

Hope this helps? cheers Mally

Hi Mally,

It seems to be working OK now, for example I went to this page and clicked Buy Now and was successfully redirect to audible.co.uk.

It may be page specific - if it's still not working correctly for some products could you let me know a product page URL and I'll check it out further...

(one thing that sometimes causes these effects but I don't think would be the case here as the original problem was in jump.php is caching so that might be something to consider if a caching plugin is still serving old versions of the product pages before the jump links were corrected....)

Cheers,
David.
