Hi,

I am trying to do the following:

Instead of using the smith cart category structure I want to use pics from a HTML module (pic of the category, for example dresses) and link it to the smith category bu using that url. However, when I do this for three categories, dresses/skirts/shoes, each with its own catID they all go to the same category which happens to be the last one I visited through the smith category structure.

So basically I want to link thee dresses pic from a html module to:

http://www.mydomain.com/EshopProducts/tabid/63/categoryid/2/dresses/Default.aspx

skirts to:

http://www.mydomain.com/EshopProducts/tabid/63/categoryid/3/skirts/Default.aspx
etc

But this doesnt seem to work? When I visit the page through the smith cart category structure is works fine but I cant use that category structure.
Whatever category I visited last via the smith cat structure is the page I go to regardless of the url in the link.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Any suggestions are welcome

Hi Kevin,

Smith: 4.36.0

DNN: 5.6.2

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for that. I think the problem is this:

On your test site: http://www7.smith-consulting.com/MySt..., every category has the same url which makes linking to a specific category impossible.

Although a few of my categories do have their own url (and a few dont which I find odd), linking to that category url doesnt work. It will always go back to that category I visited last.

When I try the same thing with product details url's it works fine. I can link to any product using that product specific url.
Can it be related to this issue:

Direct linking to child portal portal product page gives error  by jSheely?

I am happy to upgrade the version but it doesnt seem to be fixed in the newest release.

So in short my question is : how do I link to a specific category in the smith cart from for example a HTML module somewhere on another page on the site or from a different website? Please let me know asap as I am supposed to go live with this site this weekend.

Cheers
