What do you want it changed from and to?

Is the shopping cart usiing a ShopSite provided template? If so which one? If not a ShopSite provided template have you contacted the creator of the template to see if they can help you?

Where is the link coming from? Is it coded in the template to be some ShopSite setting? If so what tag is it using to display the link?

Have you tried changing the Return To Shopping Button: setting on Commerce Setup > Order System > Shopping cart screen? Try changing that and see if that changes it.

It could also be coming from the Preferences > Hosting services > "My Store" URL:. Try changing that and see if that changes it.

Right now it points to the index.html in my /shop folder. I would like to have it changed to my main index file, which is at the root of my site. I was able to customize the "continue shopping" button to point to my main index file, but for the life of me I can not figure out how to change that "home" link. I'm using the base ShopSite template. The file is (I think) sc/order.cgi, but when I try to open order.cgi, I get a ton of freaky characters.

I'll try the mystore thingy. For reference, my site's url is http://www.mondialpress.com. Thanks!

Glad you got it working.

You are using the Sleek-cart.sst template for your shopping cart. I found this out by going to the shopping cart and then right clicking and selecting View Page Source (might be a different option if you use IE) and then about half way down on the page is a block of comments telling what version of ShopSite, template, OS etc your store is using. Order.cgi is a compiled C program that is why you got the garbage looking characters.

By the way if you want to change the "Home" to something like "Mondial Press Home" you do that under Preferences > Store Text > Store Pages in the "Home" field.
