Thread: Link Products to Specific Topics

My application has a need to have multiple FAQ pages, 1 for each product, thankfully not that many products. Is there a way I can dynamically have the product reference a Topic in the XML package? This way I can have my FAQ button link below the product image instead of having to do it in the Product Description tab.

Thanks

Not 'out of the box', but with a little custom XML you could do that pretty easily. Either name the topics to match your product IDs (t-15 for product 15), or store the matching topic somewhere in the database and add a query to the beginning of the XML package to look up the right topic. Then you can do an xsl:choose to put in a link to the right topic.

So lets say I have a product with ID = 12. I then created a new topic with a Topic Name of FAQ-12. How would I query that on the product.simpleproduct.xml.config to create a hyperlink for FAQ?

I have this so far:
<div>
<a target="_blank">
<xsl:attribute name="href">
<xsl:value-of select="What goes here?" />
</xsl:attribute>
</a>
</div>
