Thread: Email this product to friend

2 quetions I have

1. How do I chang ethe word "Email this product to a friend" to something like "Email this page"?
2. How do I enable and disabled "Email this product to friend" feature for a certain product?

On your admin page, you're going to want to go to "Misc->String Resource Mgr->emailproduct.aspx.4" and edit the string to be whatever it is you'd like. As far as specifying a product to not have this option, you would have to alter the XML package that governs that specific product. In that package, find the string

<xsl:value-of select="aspdnsf:EmailProductToFriend(ProductID, $CatID)" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>

And remove it. Then save it as a secondary XML package, and apply that package to those products you wish to not use that email. Be careful though, if there are multiple packages among the products you wish to disable this link for, you will have to do this for each of them, and create secondary packages for each of them.

Thanks,

I also want the "Email this product to a friend" text changed.I changed emailproduct.aspx.4 and reset the cache but its still showing "Email this product to a friend"

Did you change it for the correct locale?

If you're running a multi-locale site, you need to change it for each one (eg en-US, en-GB etc).

I have also gone to the emailproduct.aspx.4 and typed what I wanted and mine didn't change. Any ideas?

Did you change it in the Manage String Resource?

The emailproduct.aspx.4 changes the wording on the the actual email a friend page. I'm wanting to change the email to a friend wording on the product page. It says
E-mail this product to a friend with a little envelope by it. I would also like to find the place that I can put in a different picture. Thank you so much for your time.

Changing the value of showproduct.aspx.20 in Manage String Resource will modify the "E-mail this product to a friend" string on product page.

If you want to change the envelope image right beside that text, that image is located at skins/skin_yourskinidhere/images/mailicon.gif

Also, if you want to know what is the specific string resource key is on a page. You can add this appconfig manually on the admin site (ShowStringResourceKeys) then set the value to true/false. This will guide you what is the exact string resource key in every page.

Not sure if this will help, but you can always just create a custom image or text and then just link it to the email product page, making sure to pass the product ID in the query string.

Where do can one find emailproduct.aspx.4 in DNN? In ML/DNN version 7.2.0, Misc->String Resource Mgr->emailproduct.aspx.4 is not an option.

It should be on the Language Editor. Login as a host then click on the Admin>Languages>Language Editor, browse through the Local Resources>DesktopModules>ASPDNSF_Checkout>App_Loca lResources folder and click on the aspdnsf_checkout.ascx file, then you could change the value there. That should be it...
