Hello all. I want to build a WP site that offers several products from a specific niche, but instead of having a shopping cart where it goes to Paypal, Google Checkout, etc., I want the "Buy Now" button to go to the affiliate's site. Does anyone know of some free (or affordable) Wordpress themes that offer this? I have found a few ecommerce themes, but they are geared towards being a true online store with the shopping cart and Paypal integration. Please post a few suggestions if you have any...
you can the it by the "Custom Fields". - create a Buy Now banner(jpg, gif, png, etc). let's say it is affiliate.jpg. copy it into the theme file. - open the single.php file of your theme, and add this code under <?php the_content(); ?> and save the single.php. - while you are writting a new post, add a Custom Field with the name affiliate and the affiliate url in value part.
Thank you very much for the suggestion! I am a bit of a rookie when it comes to editing Wordpress, but I will give it a shot. Do you (or anyone else) have any suggestions for themes to use that look like an ecommerce store, but don't require shopping cart plugins? I wouldn't mind using the ecommerce themes if I could find a way to make the "Buy Now" buttons go to the corresponding affiliate sites instead of the shopping cart.
