Checkout not working

I have a site that was doctored up by you. I had it under my old host provider that couldn't issue independent IP addresses so I masked it with the domain. It made a few problems. I had you try and fix the checkout and now that I moved the site to new hosting, SSL, independent IP and all, when I hit checkout it is redirecting to the old SSL folder. Any way of fixing it. www.shopjewelsforacause.com

Client wanted me to have it working asap. Thanks a million....

the ssl redirect happens in the webassist/plugins/shoppoiong_cart/checkout_form.php file, the following line sets where it goes to:

$testRedirect = "https://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

it uses the $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] variable as the domain.

you could hard code the domain by changing that to:

$testRedirect = "https://www.shopjewelsforacause.com/".$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

I added the code provided in place and it directs correctly now. One glitch I caught when doing a few dry runs on the store: I add a few products to the cart and click checkout. It then comes up with an empty cart. I tried again and it seemed to function fine. I repeated it and it glitched again and then again it worked, so this is kind of resolved? Any ideas?

Thanks for your attention...

i bet you are testing without the www in the URL.

what you are describing will happen if you leave of the www:

shopjewelsforacause.com/


when the redirect goes to;
www.shopjewelsforacause.com/

this is a different domain as far as the session cookie is concerned, so a new session is started.


you can use an htaccess rule for your site if it apache hosted to force all traffic to the www address:
force-www-htaccess.html

Thanks a million. Extremely helpful...
