PayPal return to Merchant Link as Button Maybe??

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I run a store and as i have read many times here customers often don't return to your site after using PayPal.

OK so I have IPN etc and it's great order gets saved and all.

But if the customer doesnt return there is no order email etc, which is ok but I would really like this to happen it's just better.

So I contacted PayPal about the size of the return to merchant link on the completed payment page. This is the main problem it is tiny and hidden at the bottom.

This is what was sent to me.

 

"I am happy to assist you today.

 

There is no real way to control the size of this link. If you have the ability to edit the HTML form post that is made to PayPal, then you can change the link into a button with your own text.

 

To achieve this goal you will need to pass the "cbt" variable with a value equal to the text you wish to appear on the button. An example is below.

 

<input type="hidden" name="cbt" value="Click to Complete Transaction">

 

Thanks for choosing PayPal".

 

This is great except I don't really understand it

Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions.

 

All help is much appreciated.
