Nav bar links

[wcw]

I'm trying to figure out where I can edit the nav bar links but leave the current css effects in place.

Example
http://www.pinemporium.com/SFNT.html
http://www.pinemporium.com/mm5/merch...E2&Screen=SFNT
go to the same page. The store is in a mall and I don't want to affect the short links setup in the other store which is MMUI. It works fine without having the store code in the url as they work differently. The CSSUI store looks in the root for all of its direction and then the .htaccess file sends the customer to the TKSL page which handles all the lookups, error page checking, multiple CTGY/PROD page templates, etc.

But I went to hard code the nav links to go to just SFNT.html and they are not there. How would I change those without enabling short links for the whole domain or changing the .htaccess file from the way it is set now?

Re: Nav bar links

Here's the answer to my own question in case this comes up with others. Again, it probably only effects stores where you want to have different short link systems between two stores in the same mall and not have to include the store code as part of the link.

The new link system in CSSUI is great as it lets you set the link style at one setup screen and then that affects the links in the whole store. No need to modify code on each page. So you see variables like &mvt:product:link; and that creates the link for the style in your store.

But in this scenario I wanted different links for each store in the domain. So, go to the tab "Navigation Bar". You will see items that identify each of the tabs. For example
<mvt:item name="cssui_links" param="storefront">Home</mvt:item>
is the link for the storefront. You can change that to the link to whatever you want, e.g.
<a href="http://www.pinemporium.com/SFNT.html">Home</a>
I changed the nav bar non-secure links at http://www.pinemporium.com/SFNT.html and it works fine. The tab on/off effects still work and I get the links I want for this store in the mall.

Bill:

So using the ToolKit for short links, can you have two stores in the same mall with the SAME format of domainname.com/productcode.html ? (Assuming that there was no product with the same code in both stores)?

Or would one of the stores require the store name in the URL?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Nav bar links

No. You have to have two different types of short links. Study the links in these two stores and you will see the difference. http://www.pinemporium.com/mm5/merchant.mvc
