Simple Commerce – Purchase Tag

The Simple Commerce Purchase tag is the primary tag used to display information about items in your store. It is designed to be used within a weblog entries tag, as store items are directly associated to weblog entries.

Here is a simple example of a possible usage of this tag:

{exp:simple_commerce:purchase entry_id="{entry_id}" success="site/success" cancel="site/index"}

{item_name}

<p><strong>{item_sale_price}</strong></p>

<p><a href="{buy_now_url}" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">Buy Now</a></p>
<p><a href="{add_to_cart_url}" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">Add to Cart</a></p>
<p><a href="{view_cart_url}" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">View Cart</a></p>

{/exp:simple_commerce:purchase}
