Hi guys - 

While it is still fresh in my mind, I wanted to point out a few qwerks/improvements with the products details page that I believe would make the shopping experience as a whole more streamlined.

1. Add To Cart
In a slightly earlier version of the cart (5.23?), when a user would add an item to the cart, they were taken directly to the view cart page. The first time we saw this on our portal we were elated. However, this feature has been removed for whatever reason in the current version (5.25).
Currently, when a user adds an item to the cart, the count in the mini cart module changes, but the user still has to click "View Cart". 

2. Button Text
On my Product Details pages, I am currently using the built in Mini Cart module option.
There are two buttons, that I think would do well to have the text in the button changed.
"Continue Shopping" - I would prefer the text "Return to Product Listing" or "Back To Product Listings"
"View Cart" - I would prefer the text "Checkout" as I feel that more accurately describes the location that the link directs to.

On second thought, if the feature is added back in where when a user adds an item to the cart, they are taken to the cart page, the text change of "View Cart" to "Checkout" would be unnecessary.

Hi Alex,

1. The only time the user isn't directed to the Cart page after adding an item to the Cart is when the MiniCart is being used so if you select "No Mini Cart" in the Product Details module settings the user will be taken to the Cart page after clicking the Add To Cart button.

2. All labels on all the cart catalog and checkout pages can be changed by modifying the corresponding resx files located in the module "app_localresources" folder.

Thanks

Cool. I was aware of the resx values in the files, but I was not sure if it was kosher to change them. Thanks.

Always glad to help Alex!

As long as the label text is all that you are modifying there should be no issues.

I will go ahead and mark this thread as Resolved but please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks
