Promotion: "buy now" instead of "add to basket"

[Joris Vankerschaver]

Hi guys,

I'm building a store with Oscar (loving the experience so far!) and I'm somewhat stuck on one particular feature that I would like to implement. I have a number of promotions of my home page and I would like to replace the "add to basket" button by one that says "buy now", so that if a user clicks that button, the product is added and he/she is taken immediately to the checkout.

Is there a partial that I could use to replace add_to_basket_form_compact.html, and if not, how should I go about writing a "buy now" partial? 

Thanks for your time and suggestions, and keep up the awesome work,

Joris.

​I think you should be able to modify the add_to_basket_form_compact partial and add a 'next' field which specifies the URL to redirect to. You can see where the basket view decides to redirect to here:

Wonderful, thanks! I ended up subclassing from BasketAddView and overriding get_success_url to do something similar but this looks cleaner and less intrusive.

Thanks again,

Joris
