I am the author of a book that is sold through the publisher. The thing is that I would like to create a website to promote this book and I wanted to create a sales section where I would like to include a buy button that works as follows:
A form appears with the method of payment, shipping and then data such as name, address etc. (it includes everything that the publisher's website asks for).
What I would like is that this information that you fill in on my website is automatically sent to the publisher's website so that they can send them the product (that is, even if you buy on my website, you are buying directly from the publisher).
I think it is something very simple and straightforward as this is how dropshipping works with shopify and aliexpress, but I can't find any information on the internet.
If you could help me I would be very grateful.

I hope this finds you in good shape.
I'm attempting to scrape data for my colleagues, and I've noticed that various websites can share the same URL. This has given me problems because I won't be able to scrape the data I require. Is there a solution to this.
Colgate's website in question is depicted below. The corporate vice-president tab and the leadership tab share the same URL. Can someone tell me how to scrape their names and roles or tell me how to find their individual URLs?

You’re going to need more complex logic than just screen-scraping. The nature of object-oriented web scripting means that these links don’t work the way you think they do.
If you imagine a web page as static HTML, then each link is a discrete URL that the web server receives, interprets, and displays.
But most web pages aren’t static HTML anymore. When you click on the picture for Joe Smith you are not sending a message to the web server to retrieve and send another static HTML page that contains Joe’s bio. Rather your click is sending a message to the “Joe Smith Object” and telling it “please display the bio portion of your object.” The message never says “open the Joe Smith” bio, it simply says “open your bio. How does it know which one to open? The “display your bio” message only gets sent to whichever object the user clicked on. If Joe’s,object gets the message, the request Is for Joe’s bio. If Jane’s object received the message, the request is for Jane’s bio.
We are using kentico 9 at work for our website.
You can subscribe to our newsletter using a "box" which is integrated all the way down on our homepage.
However, I would like to have the opportunity to share a direct subscription link on social media so people can click on it and subscribe to the newsletter.
Now, I have to invite people to go on our website and to go down the page to subscribe which is inconvenient (nobody is going to do this).
I can't find a way to get a direct link (I'm not a developer).
Does anybody know how I could do it ?
Thanks in advance ! :D

If someone want to subscribe to newsletter, he/she must provide you with email address and I'm not sure that can be done with direct link, because you are not aware of user email address (your target group is unknown group from social media).
You can set up anchor in 'subscribe to newsletter' link, which will automatically scroll down your page to box at the bottom, but I don't think that is the best solution. Maybe, to create a new content page, with only purpose to subscribe users to newsletter (have some introduction text, and widget for 'newsletter' where users can subscribe). I don't know is that what you are looking for, but it is nicer solution then asking people to scroll down and subscribe to newsletter.

My suggestion would be to create a specific landing page with that signup form on it. This way you can have a link you share in social media that takes them directly to that page and allows them to put in their info (first, last and email) and sign up for that specific newsletter. This way it's a specific call to action on that page and allows for the user to only do one thing.
we're facing a problem right now: We're using the SMS gateway feature from branch.io which simply does not work properly worldwide (e.g. Lituanian cell phones won't receive any messages at all).
Therefore i need a fallback method for people that cannot receive an SMS to their phone with the downloadlink in the Appstore. (The branch.io Links have an effect on the branding of our app)
The fallback is to let them use a voucher code which COULD be generated from a custom value that we store for each Link
This is an ordinary Link with its 2 custom values
The landing page http://learnmat.ch/spark7 opens in the browser and i'd like to be able to identify the SponsorID on the website so that i can return a voucher code that is suitable for the specific SponsorID of the Link.
Right now i've already integrated the Web SDK into the website.
Is that "reverse engineering of the SponsorID" possible based on the Link and the WebSDK integration?
I'd really appreciate your help!
Thank you,
Sven

Our SMS page service supports international numbers but only if the number the SMS has to be delivered is in the same country the SMS is being sent from. Could you please make sure the sender is physically located in Lithuania? I'd also suggest creating your own Twilio integration if you want to bypass these restrictions we have on our system https://docs.branch.io/pages/web/text-me-the-app/#use-your-own-sms-service
Regarding your fallback method: you want to have users click on a Branch link that will open your website and based on the link data (sponsor ID), you want to provide them with unique voucher codes? If my assumption is correct, you can achieve this by custom event tracking and user identity tracking. (relevant docs: https://docs.branch.io/pages/dashboard/analytics/#user-value-attribution)
Hopefully, this helps. Let us know if you have additional questions about the info above, or about anything else related to integrating Branch.
Best,
Jackie Choi
I am trying to create sales orders using WebServices from our CRM (Salesforce) to NetSuite. I am having an issue with international sales orders, in particular I am hitting this issue with United Kingdom.
If I create a sales order in the UI and set a bunch of field values and then set the Address to United Kingdom, I get a popup with the following message:
The address you have selected is based in a nexus for which you are required to charge a different kind of tax. Click OK to change the form to one that is applicable for that Nexus.
In the UI, when you click "ok", the page reloads and a few new tax fields appear (the fields are built in, denoted by the field ids). The problem is when the page reloads, all of the data is wiped out.
I did this UI testing to determine what was causing this. However, in WebServices, all the data sets at once (not able to be done in any "order"). What is happening with my webservice call is that it gets this same warning and then all of the data it tried to send is lost and then it tries to submit the record, hitting validation rules we have in place.
Has anyone hit this before? Is there a field or something I can set via webservices that is what NS is doing on the backend when you click "ok"?
I am open to any solution. I do have a ticket open with NS Support, however so far they have not been helpful. If I do get a resolution, I intend to post it for others.
to get around it, you can access the vendor first then select dropdown icon to open the purchase order
I'm working on an Orchard module for selling an e-book of sorts. Prior to purchase, a user can view a page showing a sample of the product. After purchase, there is no more need for the sample page, and the user has access to the full product.
I would like to set things up such that if a paying customer tries to access the sample page that they would be redirected to their full product and if a non-customer were to try to go to full product page they would be redirected to the sample. I'd also like my page content to be editable via the Dashboard.
My current implementation:
Controller handling the conditional routing / redirecting based on whether a purchase has been made.
A layer rule for each of my page url's each containing an html widget to provide the page content
This seems to work, but I am wondering what other options I have to accomplish this.
You may be making things way more complicated than they need to be.
Using widgets is unnecessary. It would be much better to build a regular content type and display that. You could serve it through a special controller that checks for a purchase, but even that is unnecessary. Instead, you could create a part that would have the purchase verification logic in its driver's display method. This way, you could even apply the exact same logic to any content type.
