Deep Linking/Override URLs

Overview

Do you want to send a customer to a product detail page where the default number of days, age, duration, or any other attribute values are set up to override the default attribute value selections that a guest would see if they just went to the product without an override URL? Then you'll need to define an override URL using the specs outlined below.

See below for for some common Use Cases for Deep Linking/Override URLs.

Use Cases for Deep Linking/Override URLs

Deep Linking/Override URLs can be used to send guests to any specific place in the store such as:

Specific product page
Hidden category page
My Account (see below for special instructions for My Account linking)
Anywhere!

Linking to My Account When Not Logged In

You would like to link guests straight to the My Account page. However, if the user is not logged in, they’ll be taken to a blank page.

To solve this issue, you can use a URL that takes the guest to Identity, and upon login, directs them back to any specified page.

https://shop._____.com/login?ReturnUrl=%2fcustomer%2Finfo (This takes them to My Account’s customer info page.)
https://shop._____.com/login?ReturnUrl=%2f_____%2f___ (Returns them to the specified page after login.)

Example:
https://shop.peakresort.com/login?ReturnUrl=%2fs%2Fevent-special%2Fp%2f2-day-ticket
