How can I put parent categories links in item templates?
You can do a dynamic category link on the item page template like this:
View more:
a href=”<%=getCurrentAttribute('sitecategory','storeurl')%>“><%=getCurrentAttribute('sitecategory','itemid')%> /a
Hi Alex, Good work… Even though I’ve entered meta tags in the meta tag area netsuite provides… some seo checking tools have said they are missing. I check the page source and I can see them and they seem to be in the right place but they aren’t registering, Thanks, Dave, http://www.deepsurplus.com/
Hi
It is a very good post and I really like it.I think it is a very nice and good work.
Hi,
I am new to Netsuite.
And i have been assigned a task to get the details of every successful transaction made and update the same items quantity in my local database.
1. I would like to know the process to follow to call a external website/webservice and i want to pass the order number to this website/webservice.
2. Insert the order number into my local database.
3. Get the details (list of items) of the transaction on the order number and update each items quantity in my local database.
Kindly post a solution to this as my task deadline is nearing.
Thanks in advance.
@prasanna - if the data is in your netsuite account you can run a “SAVED SEARCH” - look for it in help - it is really a report that search your NS database. Then once the format is to you liking you can export it as a CSV file and re-import it into your local database.
Hope that helps:

Hi Alex:
I am writing to ask if it is possible to build web site by PHP +Netsuite Ecommerce.If so,would you please tell me how to do it?
thanks a lot.
@Christine - to use PHP - you would need to host the site outside of Netsuite and use web services to bring your catalog and/or transactions in to Netsuite.
In netsuite this is called: External Catalog Site (WSDK)
Hey Alex,
2 quick Questions about running Netsuite with Google Optimizer:
1- What is the conversion page? and how do I add the tracking code to it..
2- Is there anyway to test a item template with multivariate testing for a range of item, not just 1 specific one.
Keep up the great work
i am considering a transition from a more basic to shopping cart over to Netsuite. I am curious about the impact the move will have on my search rankings. i have been w. my current solution for 2 + years. While my search positioning is not perfect, it’s pretty good. Do you have any tips ?
@Old Bike Barn - the conversion code goes on the Checkout Tab. Add it to the Order Confirmation Message field. For the item template there are a few ways to do it. Ping me and we can chat about it and maybe do a full post on that topic.
@anonymous - if you are moving from a non-netsuite site to netsuite you need to ensure you set up 301 redirects for ALL your pages. Or can also do this in netsuite for the redirects. You need to be very careful and plan this perfectly, because if not done right you can kill your rankings and delete all your traffic.
Hi Alex, thanks for all the good info. I am new to Netsuite. Is there a way to make changes on the site without having the changes to reflect on the production site? Sort of like a staging site.
Hi Alex,
Would you know how many actual users (not customers) that Netsuite has? Thanks for your help.
I have a saved customized report in NetSuite account. Now I would like to call that saved reports through the NetSuite webservice to create some intuitive chart report in a separate web site. How can I do this.
PLEASE PLEASE help me..
Thanks in advance

Hi Alex, I can’t find any material on this. Hope you can help me. How can I show the searched keywords on the search result page? Thanks.
There are different ways to setup URL structure in Netsuite. What do you suggest from the options below-
Option #1 /tab_name/ca…me/item_name
Option #2
/item_name?sc=13&category=46548
Under option 1 you can also setup all categories as tabs and this would reduce one level. You would then have to hard code subcategories in the category pages. Any problem with doing this?
Is there any way to not show session ID?
Is there any way to not have multiple redirects on non www to www pages?

I am looking for a way in netsuite for a customer to be able to build their own custom kits then base price on qty
Is there any way to change the order of the checkout process? Currently Netsuite requires CC information to be entered before you can review and submit the order, is there any way to change that? We’ve had clients who are reluctant to put in CC information before they see what the total amount is.
Kelly,
This is not possible. Netsuite is not open source so you can not change how the checkout is ordered.
regards.

I have a custom field that is a Document type, that references a PDF brochure for each of my products. I then reference it’s URL with the standard item tag and my link works. The problem is that the URL is amazingly ugly, and not SEO friendly. So my question is if there is a way to invoke the URL in one of the SEO friendly formats that is displayed to me via the file cabinet, edit feature? I have a multi-site scenario, so I’m also concerned that if this is possible, that it be for the correct store/domain. If there is no way for me to refer to my pdf with an SEO friendly URL, then is there a tag I can use to simply retrieve the file name of the PDF that I reference in my custom field, and I can deal with the full URL myself in the item template? Thanks, Nero.
How can i get the separate item id in Netsuite .Can you help me please.
Thank You
-welkins
Meaning the internal id? Like this:
< %=getCurrentAttribute('item','internalid','')%>
Is there a way to hide the session IDs in netsuite websites?
Chris,
dont think so, but they shouldnt mess up anything your doing either, inclduing SEO.
I know a lot of people have asked this on the NS board, you may want to research there.
I have some websites that are ranking well with Google and Yahoo. Most of my clients come from Yahoo. I’m thinking of using Netsuite. My URLs end with a file extension (.html) while their URLs don’t (/). One of their techs advised to use 301 redirects to workaround this issue. I read on some forums that Yahoo doesn’t work with 301 redirects. Is this true? Will it negatively affect my SEO?
I have the custome and i selected Child of for this customer.
