Customizing your purchase buttons
Changing the Appearance
All E-junkie button codes provide an image reference, which looks like and can be customized by one of the following:
<img src="https://www.e-junkie.com/something.gif"/>
You can replace the https://www.e-junkie.com/something.gif part with your own image's URL OR you can simply replace the whole <img.../> tag with text if you don't want an image button.
...OR...
<input type="image" src="https://www.e-junkie.com/something.gif"/>
You can replace the https://www.e-junkie.com/something.gif part with your own image's URL
NOTE: You should not customize the button image used for any Google Checkout Buy Now button code we provide, as that may violate their policies and the terms of your agreement with them, leaving your account subject to suspension; the standard button images we provide in our Buy Now code for Google Checkout are fully compliant with their policies and terms.
Changing the Behavior
NOTE: You need some understanding of HTML in order to do what is required below. Also to pass the variables in the URL string, you can simply hardcode them in there, or use an HTML form or JavaScript or anything else you need to get the job done.
All the buttons E-junkie provides contain a purchase link URL, which is something like http://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?i=XXXXXX&c=YYYYY, where XXXXXX is the item number and YYYYY is your E-junkie client account ID).
To pass a custom variable for the full order:
This will be passed back to you in the notification email, Integration URL, keygen URL, transaction logs and you can choose to display it in your Thank-you Page and Thank-you Email as well.
- E-junkie cart buttons
- Add
&custom=value_you_want_to_pass at the end of the purchase link URL in all the buttons (Add to Cart and View Cart). If more than one button has a Custom value, only the Custom value of the last button clicked will be passed with the order. - E-junkie buy now buttons
- Add
&custom=value_you_want_to_pass at the end of the purchase link URL
To pass custom values for each product:
You should be using Variants or Variations for that, but E-junkie only allows upto 6 options values to be passed in our buttons (up to 3 menus for "Variants affecting price/weight/stock/SKU", and/or up to 3 menus or text fields for "Variations which tell more about the product"). Information such as buyer name, email, and address can be collected during checkout if you enable the Shipping/Buyer's Address setting for your product(s) (even if you won't actually be using our shipping calculation feature.
If you need more fields, then with some additional custom scripting at your end, you could have additional menus/fields on your page that would get concatenated (strung together) into a single variable field to be passed into the cart, as shown below. This will ONLY work for E-junkie ADD TO CART buttons and E-junkie Buy Now buttons for PayPal.
&on0=Options&os0=string_with_all_values
(This string can't be more than 200 characters. If that's not enough, you can add the following.)
&on1=More+Options&os1=another_string_with_more_values
&on2=Even+More+Options&os2=yet_another_string_with_even_more_values
(These strings can't be more than 100 characters.)
To pass product price other than the amount set in E-junkie admin:
- E-junkie Add to Cart buttons:
- Add
&amount=amount_you_want_to_pass at the end of the purchase link URL in your Add to Cart button. This amount will be added to the price you have set in admin, so buyers will be shown the combined price. - E-junkie Buy Now buttons:
- Add
&amount=amount_you_want_to_pass at the end of the purchase link URL in your button. This amount will override the price you have set in admin.
Item Quantity
Add &quantity=N (where N is your desired quantity) at the end of the purchase link URL in your button code. Passed quantity will be ignored if you have set item price as 0.00 in Admin, as free products are limited to orders of 1 unit at a time. You can also disable the Let buyer edit quantity setting for the product, e.g. if you want buyers to add more than 1 unit to their cart without allowing the buyer to edit it back down to 1 nor adjust the quantity any higher.
PayPal Checkout Language
NOTE: This only works with E-junkie Buy Now buttons for PayPal and E-junkie's PayPal cart buttons.
To change the language of the payment page, add this at the end of the purchase link URL in your button code:
&country=ES (Spanish)
&country=DE (German)
&country=FR (French)
&country=NL (Dutch)
&country=IT (Italian)
&country=CN (Cantonese)
&country=US (English - you would use this ONLY if your default language setting in PayPal is something else and you want to display the page in English)
