  Creating a product

1. Store: If you have multiple stores ensure you have the correct store selected in the Store list.

2. Click New.

3. Description: Add a description for your product. This the description of your product seen at the checkout web page and in your order confirmation email. Note : Maximum 75 characters.

4. Product Code: Add a product code. Please enter a unique code for each product. IMPORTANT : Letters and Numbers only & NO SPACES.

If you do not have a code for your product you can click "Generate" to create a random product code.

5. Price: Enter price as a number. Do not include $ or £ sign. For UK users select to include or exclude VAT.

6. Charge Tax: Select to charge tax or not.

US Users : eButtonz will compare your customers zip code with your zip code to determine if they are in the same state as you. If they are, sales tax will be automatically added unless you answer "no" to "Charge tax".
   
UK Users : Select to charge VAT or not.
   

7. Weight: Enter the weight of your product. Weight is used to automatically calculate postage. Set weight at 0 (zero) for free postage.

8. Button Style: It is important to understand how the eButtonz code interacts with Dreamweaver in design view. When an eButtonz buy button is inserted into a web page, code similar to the following is added to your web page at the code level:

<ebutton id="gr1" sid="7051Cellphone" >
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
makeB("7051Cellphone","gr1","On Sale","2");
//-->
</script>
</ebutton>

So you can identify where the code has been added to your web page when you are in edit view eButtonz uses a default placeholder which looks like this :

To assist the design process you may replace the default eButtonz placeholder graphic. To do this select "Edit Accounts" from the Manage Store top menu and use the folder icon to change the image. Make sure you enter the correct dimensions of the new image and click update. At present you need to quit and restart Dreamweaver to effect this change.

Remember, the placeholder and button style as defined in "Product List" may be different.

"Button Style" is used to define the style of your buy buttons when seen in your web browser, not Dreamweaver.
