Testing THANKYOU and THANKYOU EMAIL

Postby MarkB » Sat Mar 17, 2007 12:15 pm

Is there a way to test the THANKYOU screen and the THANKYOU EMAIL sections without placing an order to myself?

It would be nice if there was a PREVIEW button for these the same way there is for the shopping cart template.

So, without placing a live order, any way to test/preview these 2 screens?

Thank-you,

Mark

Mark,

The Preview for the shopping cart template should include the thankyou screen, the Preview function can walk you through the entire shopping cart process, of which the THANKYOU screen is the last step.

I don't know if there is any way to preview the THANKYOU EMAIL without placing a test order, but that should not really be a big deal, even if you are using a real-time payment gateway to process credit card orders just temporarily enabled COD as a payment method so you can complete the order without cc info, then disabled COD as soon as you have completed your test order.

Thanks Loren... I didn't think about using the COD option as a "test" option. I can always place a live order because I simply refund myself, but was looking for a better way.

I didn't realize the preview shopping cart took me all the way thru the process, thanks for the heads-up on that.
