Give products names instead of numbers in direct order link.

[DerekFL]

I don't like the idea of having product numbers in my direct order links, so I changed it to reflect the product name. For example instead of my product link being order.php?step=2&pid=4, I have it set to be order.php?plan=product_name. This is actually easy to accomplish by using the following in a .htaccess file under your main WHMCS folder:

 

RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /

 

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^plan=product_name$
RewriteRule ^order.php order.php?step=2&pid=1 [L]

 

In the above example you'd obviously have to replace pid=1 with the id of your product. To create more than one product, simply add the RewriteCond and RewriteRule for each product.

thanks for your contribution there derek.

 

Perhaps we could do with a hacks category?
