Please Help: Two Different shopping Carts?
I have been setting up my smug site. I only have two images and two galleries for now, because I keep coming across issues. My current issue is that I seem to have two different types of "Add to Cart Button"
If you go to the gallery http://www.sambreach.com/Stories for example and click on (green button screen right) "Add to Cart" > Photos from this gallery
it gives you a shopping cart that I do not expect. I can't work out where it comes from. It is not the cart I set up and hand crafted for this image. I want to turn this off.
However, if I go to the gallery and then click on the photograph and then click on "Add to Cart" (green button page bottom) > This Photo | then I do get to the correct shopping cart I created for this image. But again if from that same button I was to select "photos from this gallery" I would go to the unexpected/unwanted cart again.
How do I remove the options that would take my customers to the unwanted/incorrect cart?
I have just made my website live and I need to get this sorted ASAP before I add more pictures or start promoting it.
Addendum
I think perhaps I am trying to use SmugMug in a way others haven't before? Or I can't believe this issues haven't surfaced with anyone else. One of my pet peeves with Smug Mug as a buyer, for example, is trying to buy a print and being faced with a million surface and size options as well as cropping. I have actually tried to buy a print off someone before and not done so because all their images needed cropping. I don't want a cropped art piece, I want the thing I see. So given my bad purchaser experience, I don't want my end users to see any of that, so I am hand crafting each image to its own unique surface options and print sizes to give less options and make it much simpler for the buyer. This is a lot more work for me, and now that I have done it I am finding issues such as the one I outlined above. I am grouping galleries by theme, or at least that is my plan, but there is no guarantee that all the aspect ratios would be the same in any given theme. I want to group my images together because they relate artistically, not because they all have the same aspect ratio. I don't want a gallery cart, just the cart per image?
