Sometimes there is a need to use different buttons/links for the same product. To avoid creation of the same product for several times you can use coupons.
When a new product is created, there is a list of default coupons available. They are set already for this product and can be used as they are.
You can also create your custom coupons with your own design.
The coupons are organized in the list, each having the following parameters:
- Coupon name – please add any name here
- Your Coupon ID – please add an ID here (alphanumeric, no spaces)
- Active – usual Joomla feature. You can click the icon to make the coupon available/unavailable from the front end.
- Views – the number of views of the coupon
- Clicks – the number of clicks of the coupon
- Coupon Preview – how the coupon will be displayed in the front end
- Coupon Source – the source code of the coupon
If you prefer one of the default coupons – the source code if code is created for it already. When you add a new coupon – you will need to add the source code for it. The source code should be the following:
<a href='https://www.2checkout.com/2co/buyer/purchase?sid={vendor_id}&quantity=1&product_id={product_id}'>
<img src="http://www.mysite.com/images/myimage1.png" alt="Buy Now" />
</a>
The first tag should be copied as is. The second tag should contain the URL of your image and the Alt you prefer.
- Remove – delete the coupon
- Edit source – edit source of the coupon
The source code can be edited either by clicking the code area or by clicking this action
