Today’s quick lesson is based on a question I was asked in a recent comment – how do we add a summary of the customers order on the order confirmation page?
As things stand, the confirmation page in BigCommerce simply displays a thank you message and if you have set up a “pay later” option, details on how to complete the order, plus some links to new/popular products. So how to add the order confirmation details?
There’s a hot topic at the moment on the Official BigCommerce Forums regarding hidden categories. Originally you could hide a category from being visible in the menu, but still link to it; ideal for landing pages or email promotions. This feature later disappeared, and now hidden categories are treated as disabled.
Using a bit of jQuery, we can replicate the old feature by hiding menu links matching or containing specific keywords.
The rarely used On Sale panel often goes unnoticed because it’s not called by the default.html template in BigCommerce. Here’s an overview of how to add it, and set up items so they appear in the panel.
One of the most common questions I see being asked is “how do I create my own homepage?”. The default homepage is great if you want to get straight into your products, but often you want to create a promotional area, or use the store as a secondary area of the site.
So how do we go about it? It’s pretty straightforward and can be set up in just a few moments.
