Merchants using Store Editor 3.0 templates can choose to link to their Catalog Request form by adding a link to their main site navigation, or by adding a link using any variable that accepts HTML input (for example, the HTML-below-left-nav variable for merchants using Design Wizard-based side navigation templates, or the Final-text variable).
Add a link to your main navigation
You can add a Catalog Request link to your navigation links using the Link feature in Store Editor.
- Sign in to your My Services page.
- Click the Store link.
- Go to Store Editor.
- Click the Link button in the Editor toolbar.
- Under Object properties:
- Enter a name for your link in the Name field. For example, Request a catalog.
- Enter the URL for the link. The URL for your store's Catalog Request is formatted as follows:
https://order.store.yahoo.net/cgi-bin/wg-request-catalog?store_ID Learn how to find your store ID.
- Click the Update button.
Your link will be added to your store's main navigation:
- Publish when ready.
Add a link to another area of your store pages
You can also add a text or image link to your Catalog Request form to another area of your store using a variable field that accepts HTML. For example, if your store uses a Design Wizard-based side navigation template, you may wish to place a Catalog Request image link below your side navigation using the HTML-below-left-nav variable. If your store doesn't use a side navigation template, you may wish to place the link in another variable field that accepts HTML (for example, the Final-text variable). To create a link in one of these fields, you must format your link using the HTML a tag.
For this example, we'll use the Final-text variable and add an image link.
- Sign in to your My Services page.
- Click the Store link.
- Go to Store Editor.
- Go to Variables.
- In the Final-text field enter your Catalog Request link, hard-coded in HTML. Catalog Request forms created in Checkout & Registration Manager use the following link format:
https://order.store.yahoo.net/cgi-bin/wg-request-catalog?store_ID Learn how to find your store ID.
- Click the Update button.
- You can now preview the Catalog Request link on your store pages.
- Publish when ready. Note: Making changes in Variables will require a full publish. Learn more.
