Reply to "Footer Links not working, what did I do wrong now?"

Hi Danno...Update...I think I have it! Whohooooooo! Break out the Champaign! Please let me know if you find them not working. They seam fine here. I read through some posts and found a fix, which helped. Michelle, once again needs a raise. My thanks to you and Michelle:

First one:
On your dashboard go to stores website. One of the icons to the right of the website is preview. Click on preview and you will see the address in the URL. You will only need the last part of the URL for your link. i.e. /privacy-policy... from the last back slash to the end. (copy that part you will need it later) Look at the globe while you are there. It could say hidden, private, or public. You click on the world to change the settings. Customers will not be able to see your page unless it is set to public.

To link this in your footer:
Go to Store>Theme>Customize Store Theme - you will see a new box underneath your footer that says customize links. Click on that box. A box will come up with 8 lines on it. 3 or 4 of them will already be populated based on your store settings (4 if you have currencies set up). So start with the next available line. The left box is what you want the customer to see - i.e. Privacy Policy. The right box will contain the last part of the webpage that you copied from above. Click on Save Links, and Close. Then refresh your page.

Second One:
It would help if I called it the right thing...

From your dashboard go to Store>Webpages (not website - sorry) On this page you will see a list of all the webpages you have made. On the right hand side you will see a magnifying glass. This magnifying glass will let you preview the webpage. Click on the magnifying glass of the page you need your URL (web address) for. It will open up the page for you in a new window. In the address line you will see something that looks like: .http://merchant.auctivacommerce.com/s160/Shipping-W175.aspx (I am inserting a period before the URL so that this editor won't shorten the information - you won't have a period in yours.) You will need the last part of this information to create the link to this page in your footer. Specifically you will need the /Shipping-W175.aspx part. Copy that part down, or copy and paste it into a document or notepad so that you have that part for setting up your links.

Hopefully this will clarify the first part of my instructions above. Let me know if the bottom part is confusing too.


Michelle

You are all like family, thanks a million.
