Hi

I am testing the common thank you email feature of e-Junkie. The content of the link: %thankyou_link% essentially shows:

---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------
My_Company_Name e-commerce powered by e-junkie™

We've successfully received the order for <Name of Tangible Pdt 1>.

<Date of Transaction> <Person's Name> <Price??>
---------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------
My questions are :

1) Is it possible to change the <Person's Name> to my_company_name? How?
2) If it is a purchase for different tangible items, how would the main body msg be like?
3) Would the <Price??> show the total price or breakdown price?
4) Also, might be a good idea to include a "$" sign in front of the price. I tested with a price of $0.01 and it took me a while to finally realized that the "0.01" refers to $0.01.

Thks!

When you put [%thankyou_link%] into your Thank-you Email message, that inserts a link to reach the buyer's Thank-You Page, so you're talking about customizing the Thank-you Page, as explained here:
http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/help.custom.thankyou-page.htm

This example Thank-You Page for multiple items will show you where content you provide in various customization fields would get inserted into the page:
https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/rp.php?t=jg-kqswfja3e6cfcfd&c=fup

We don't automatically add a $ in front of [%gross%] or [%total%] or [%item_price%] or [%sale_price%] because we support pricing in a variety of currencies. You can just add the $ yourself, e.g. $[%gross%].

Hi Tyson

Thanks for the prompt response!

I think I've finally figured out how this works.

After paying using PayPal and clicking on the link, I was brought to the common thank you page html on e-junkie's website. Is there a way to re-direct the user back to my website after that, either automatically or a link?

If you are not selling downloads, you can just go to Seller Admin > Account Preferences and enter a Common Thank-you Page URL where all buyers will be redirected, or you can enter a specific URL for each product by enabling Redirection in the product's settings (in this case, you should NOT add any thank-you page customizations). Note that product-specific Redirection counts as a "digital product" (as this is usually used to grant access to premium content), so you would need to subscribe to a plan level that

If you are using our download-delivery system and also need to redirect to a page on your own site, then you would need to know how to program some custom scripting, to display the content of our thank-you page (including the unique, expirable download link(s) we issue to each buyer) inside an IFRAME within your site's common thank-you page, as described here:
http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/help.redirection.htm

I am selling only tangible products at this point of time.

Can I have this combo:
1) Have buyers re-directed via the Common Thank-you Page URL to my website

PLUS

2) Send a Common Thank-you Email to buyers with a [%thankyou_link%]. The content of the [%thankyou_link%] page is something I customize in Common Thank-You Page HTML?

Thks for the prompt response so far!

Yes, you can setup a common thank you page URL re-directing buyers to your website and then, the [%thankyou_link%] variable will include a link to that thank you page.

Think you might have misunderstood what I wanted.

Let me backtrack a little: I like the "Common Thank-You Page HTML" feature as I can easily customize the order and shipping details using the [%xxx%] template variables provided by e-Junkie. These info are useful for buyers.

The only issue is that the buyer is no longer on the seller's website which he/she started with.

From a buyer's (and seller's) perspective, I think it might be more appropriate to have the whole buying experience that began from the seller's website, end at the seller's website.

Hence I was hoping e-Junkie could be configured with the common thank you page URL and providing a [%thankyou_link%] that goes to my customized "common thank-you page HTML" that buyers can click on to review the order details. It is ok for the details to be found on the e-Junkie website since the buying has already ended back at the seller's website.

But what happened was that when I set up a common thank you page URL on e-Junkie, the [%thankyou_link%] (found on the common thank-you email), did not go to the common thank you page HTML. It links to the common thank you page URL.

Maybe I have configured wrongly. But can e-Junkie be configured to achieve what I would like to do? Plse advise.

Thks!

The [%thankyou_link%] will send the buyer to the thank you page that you have setup, in this case the common thank you URL you have setup. If your goal is to have a common thank you page and to send buyers to a different page with the [%thankyou_link%] variable then you will not be able to set this up with E-junkie.

in that case, I will use the "Common Thank-You Page HTML" method, and embed a link at the bottom for buyers to get back to my website.

i added the following :

<a href="www.mywebsite.com/order.html"><b>Return to My Website<b/></a>

but it gets re-directed to : http://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/www.mywebsite.com/order.html instead of http://www.mywebsite.com/order.html

I am not conversant with HTML coding. Can you help?

Thks!

ok, problem fixed. I change it from

<a href="www.mywebsite.com/order.html"><b>Return to My Website<b/></a>

to

<a href="http://www.mywebsite.com/order.html"><b>Return to My Website<b/></a>

plse close the call. thks!
