You'll find this at: Options > Orders. Unselect "Redirect to cart...." |
Optimists invent airplanes,
Pessimists buy parachutes. |

Yes, it will stay at the same page, but how to code the extra messgae of < Item has been added to cart > shown right under the add-to-cart button, so that customer know the item already added to cart.

Great Bill, It is done with styles in your style sheet. The first thing I did was display the add to cart and wishlist button inline like so. #wishlist { margin-left: 10px; display:inline;} Then I set up the add to cart message like so. .AddedToCartMessage, .SuccessMessage { color: #000; font-size: 1.2em; padding-left: 25px;} .addtocartmessage, messagebox { display: block; background: #fff url(../images/cartnotice.png) no-repeat scroll 0%; margin: 10px 0; padding: 0 10px; line-height: 2.8em; } Note: the url(..images/cartnotice.png) you will have to create this image. You may have to play with the css to get everthing aligned the way you want it. Richard www.somethingmorestore.com

"Item Added to Cart" should be an editable Site Term. Maybe in BVC6 ??? |

If you hit Options > Orders,
it's a site term there, "Item added to Cart Text:". It's easy to miss! |

Are many stores doing this? Do customers find it easier or confusing? |

I have a mix of either/or with clients. It's extremely useful for one client as all of the products have a large number of possible related products. We do not want to interrupt the add to cart process with the "those who bought this, also bought this" so leaving them on the page with the the ability to "View Cart | View Related Products" works for the upsell as these related products tend to be included in the product descript ions. (i.e. Sold Seperately, Suggest Using... etc.) Another client interrupts the add the cart with the upsell method on certain products and it is effective for these items as the upsell products tend to be attachments kits and/or product specific accessories that are needed a majority of the time for first times purchases. Other products tend to be one time purchases with little to no related products so we send them right to the cart. Get in, Get out! A effective feature is the display related products on the cart page which is OOTB. A tool that has allowed us to make solid decisions has been the use of sightmax ( http://www.sightmax.com/) with the cobrowse option as it allows us to watch the users shop. (Tim, tap Resposio about the possibility of using sightmax if you're not using it already). |

I have seen a slight rise in customer's ordering the accessories (cross sells) and browsing for other products when I have the customer stay on the page with the :View Cart | View Accessories: like Matt mentioned. Before we implemented this, we have lots of one product orders. Now we have multiple products because we dont keep sending the customer to the "cashier: everytime they add to cart. It all depends on your store.

Thanks a lot, Andy, now I have to remember to update LinkedIn. ;-)
I can't find the threads where we discussed this cart message thing, but I remember posting a screenshot and some additional information somewhere. If I find them, I'll post links. |
