How to add a button below the "add to cart"

I was wondering if there is a native function within HikaShip to be able to place a "button" that is formated like the "add to cart" button, but have it right below the "add to cart" button.

I want to let my customers download my product, so I was hoping that I could add a button that then upon "click" would launch me into the download page.

Can Hika do this or would I have to add custom code? And if I had to add custom code, where would I need to put it into the template?

Thanks in advance,

There is no function within hikashop for that.

If you want to add a button below the "add to cart" button, you can edit the file quantity of the view product.
The button is displayed using the code:
echo $this->cart->displayButton(JText::_('ADD_TO_CART'),'add',$this->params,$url,$this->ajax,'',$this->row->product_max_per_order);


If you want to use your own link, you can do like this:
echo $this->cart->displayButton(JText::_('MY_BUTTON'),'my_button',$this->params,$link,'window.location = \''.$link.'\';return false;','');

Hello Nicolas,
Thanks for the code, but I have tried several times, however it does not work..below you will sere where I have inserted the 2nd piece of code you provided, but the "My Button" still does not display:

You added the my_button code just after the line
}elseif($this->row->product_quantity>0){

which means that it will only be displayed if the stock of your product is not unlimited. You also need to set the variable $link with the link where you want your users to be redirected when clicking on the button.

Yep. Great.
that totally worked now.
Thank you so much.

However the quantity box with the default "1" and the +/- shows up to the left of the "my button"

Why is that? and how do I remove those two item?

That's because it's the way it's made on the product page.

What do you mean by "those two item" ?

remove the "quantity box" and the "+/-" for that row?

Ah yes,
You can use that code instead then:
$empty='';
$params = new JParameter($empty);
$this->cart->displayButton(JText::_('MY_BUTTON'),'my_button',$params,$link,'window.location = \''.$link.'\';return false;','');

Perfect. Thanks so much. Greatly appreciated
