Continue Shopping Button's Logic

Table of Contents

The "Continue Shopping" button (at checkout) has multiple layers of logic that ultimately determines where the customer is sent when they click it.  The following shows the 4 possible configurable scenarios:

  1. Referrer URL
  2. Store URL
  3. Override Continue Shopping URL (Screen Branding)
  4. Item buy link/ buy form

...

The defaulted behavior is to return the customer to the page from which they initially added an item to the shopping cart.  This is accomplished by pulling the referrer URL from the customer's browser.

titleFix for Chrome 85 Referrer Issue

Add this meta tag to your pages:

<meta name="referrer" content="no-referrer-when-downgrade" />

Sometimes the customer's browser is configured in a manner that prevents UltraCart from obtaining the referrer URL.  When that occurs UltraCart refers to the Store URL listed on the Merchant Profile configuration page at:Main Menu  Configuration

Main Menu → Configuration → (General" section)

Item "Buy Link"

...

Because some characters are converted to "escape characters" for encoding to a URL, you may find it easier to use the link builder tool located in the "advanced buy link" section of the links screen).

  1. Locate the item to add the continue shopping URL
  2. Click the "Links" hyperlink to the right of the configured cost of the item in the items list. The following screen will appear:
