-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.2
-- Joomla version -- : 3.3.3
-- PHP version -- : 5.4.4
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Not Relevant
-- Error-message(debug-mod must be tuned on) -- : No error...

Real world situation: We have a product landing page, and we want to insert some links to specific variants of our products, ie:

Free Version / Windows / New
Free Version / Linux / New
Free Version / Mac OS X / New

In the store, it is set up now so that you pick the version (free or pro) , OS, and New / Renew. But first time visitors are going to want to be able to download in very few steps, the free versions of the products - just a "Download Now" link for each OS version.

Is this possible? It seems like this would be done with tags but I can't see that tags are that flexible. How would you go about doing this?

Hi,

You can directly put the link to the variant.
For that take the link of the product and change the id of the product in the URL to the id of the variant.
Note that if you have activated the SEF option to remove the ids from the URLs in the configuration of HikaShop, you won't have the product id in the URL, but you can still add the id of the variant in the link.
So for example, if the link to the product page is:
mywebsite.com/category/product_alias
or:
mywebsite.com/category/18-product_alias
(where 18 is the id of the product)
You can use such URL in both cases:
mywebsite.com/category/19-product_alias
(where 19 is the id of the variant)
