Checkout parameter

I want Add to Basket to add an item but I don't want the customer to see the Checkout page until they click Checkout. So that they can continue to shop for additional items without going to the Checkout page each time. I'm sure there is a parameter for this but cannot find it.

clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 07/28/2022 : 05:04:47 Yes, we are using $usehardaddtocart=TRUE; but I thought there was a parameter which Continued Shopping rather than loading Checkout page every time.

There is a parameter if you need to change the continue shopping link on thanks page, which clearly is not what you are looking for.

clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 07/28/2022 : 05:24:44 Thanks. I think I might need $actionaftercart=3; but I cannot find this or the other values described anywhere. CVW Web Design www.cvwdesign.co.uk \| web design and development

1818charlie ECT Moderator United Kingdom 1198 Posts	Posted - 07/28/2022 : 08:44:35 Clive, good to hear you have it sorted. I'd searched in the parameters page but the actionaftercart isn't listed & I was assuming, always bad to assume , that it may have been deprecated, clearly it has not https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/phphelp/ecommplus/parameters.asp Steve Manchester UK "Anything in life that is worth doing is worth overdoing, moderation is for cowards"
