I've been trying to figure this out for hours.. the text link will add the product to my cart page, but on the cart page if I click the product's url to view its detail page, it just stays on the shopping cart page. I looked at the source code and its not adding anything in the href tag. It's showing up like this: <a href="">My product's title</a>
Add to cart as text link adds product but nothing in url

Oops I added this to the wrong forum section... It should be in wp eStore troubleshooting. Can this be moved, my mistake.

What value do you have in the "Product Page URL" field of this product?
What version of the eStore and extra shortcodes plugin are you using?

I don't totally understand what to put in the product page URL I've tried multiple combinations like:
http://website.com/store/product_title
http://www.website.com/store/product_title
http://website.com/store/
http://website.com/
http://website.com/store/shopping-cart
/
/store/product_titleetc...nothing worked.
Basically every combination I can think of, but I would also get an message at the top saying the url is not valid everytime.
The product detail page exists at:http://website.com/store/product_titlewhich has its own add to cart button already.
But the hyperlink I need to place on the homepage.I'm using version: Version v5.9.9

Just the plain URL of the product page is good enough (the URL that you can use to access that page in the browser).
Whats your extra shortcodes plugin version and what exact shortcode are you using to display the shopping cart on this page in question?

Hey admin, thanks for responding. I figured it out, not sure why it didn't work before.. I may have miss-typed the url. It still says:
"The URL specified in the "Product Page URL" field does not seem to be a valid URL! Please check this value again:" but I'm guessing that's because I'm starting with a '/' since the url is relative within the site.

If you know for sure that the URL of the file is correct then simply ignore this message (most likely your hosting provider does not have URL fopen enabled so the plugin is having a tough time when it tries to ping and validate the file URL). This message is only given to the admin as a means to help you (so you don't make mistake in the URL).
