Adding Buy Button on Wix
Apart from creating a page with your Ecwid store on it, you can feature products on other pages of your site. Ecwid has a built-in tool to show individual products on a webpage called Buy Button. For Wix users, using Buy Buttons can be challenging because of the iFrame structure of Wix sites that interferes with button’s work.
Still, you can feature one or more products on a page by adding a button that will be linked to a product page of your Ecwid item.
To create a button with a product page link on Wix:
- Add your Ecwid store on Wix (with the app).
- Open a page on your Wix site with the Ecwid store on it and click on the product you want to feature with a buy button.
- Copy the URL of a product page from the address bar.
- Open your Wix site editor and go to a page where you want your buy button to appear.
- Click the + sign on the left-hand side menu and select a button.
- Double-click on the button to change the text and add the link to your product page.
- Click Publish.
Done! Now your customers will see a button on your page. When they click on it, they can proceed to the checkout:
