wp ecommerce

Is it giving you the alert? You also must have entered something wrong, I just tested the above code and it seems to be working without issue.

Then you’re theme probably isn’t using the wp_head hook.

Try wp_footer in place of wp_head.

If you’re getting a parse error it means you haven’t entered the code right and there is a missing ‘ ” or ; somewhere throwing an error.

It’s ok, I’m waiting for a DNS name change so who knows how long I have to wait lol

Ok, so open up functions.php and scroll down to the bottom and place the following exactly as is :

function change_continue_shopping_link() {
  ?>
  <script>
   jQuery(function() {
     jQuery('.continue_shopping').attr( 'href' , 'http://www.google.com' );
     alert('Javascript running...');
   });
  </script>
  <?php
}
add_action( 'wp_footer' , 'change_continue_shopping_link' );

That will load the javascript into the footer of every page of your site. Refresh the page and you should get an alert. If you don’t, right click and select ‘Inspect Element’ and go over to the console tab and check for any errors.

I have the function on one of my sites so I know the code is valid and functioning.

I just checked your site, and received the alert. That means the javascript is sucessfuly running.

I would double check the continue shopping link now. Maybe it will link to google, now that the js is running.

As we mentioned before I can’t access a page with that button, so you’ll have to let me know.

grrr, I really wish I could see the HTML of the button. If you right click it, and inspect the element is there an href attribute on the element?

can you try one more thing for me?

Change the function too:

function change_continue_shopping_link() {
  ?>
  <script>
   jQuery(function() {
     jQuery('.continue_shopping').removeAttr( 'href' ).removeAttr( 'onclick' ).attr( 'href' , 'http://www.google.com' );
   });
  </script>
  <?php
}
add_action( 'wp_footer' , 'change_continue_shopping_link' );

I guess we’ll try removing the previously set href and onclick attributes, and re-adding our own. That’s my best guess.
