Linking buy buttons to your course checkout is the most common button you will set up on your site! This is how you will prompt visitors to purchase your course and continue through checkout.
This article is for anyone using a Site Builder compatible theme and the built-in Thinkific Payment Processors.
How to Link a Button to Your Course Checkout
- Go to Design your Site
- Select Site Builder
- Navigate to your desired page via the left side menu
- Add a section or locate your desired section
- Click on the section name to view details
- Click on the Button block
- In the Text field, input your desired button text
- In the Link field, select Checkout page
- In the 2nd dropdown menu, select your course or bundle
- In the 3rd dropdown menu, select your desired price
- Click Save
Additional Customization
Depending on the Section you are editing, you will see some additional customization options for your button. Learn about that here: Site Builder Buttons
Testing Your Button
Once you have customized your button, we recommend testing it on your live site as your buttons will not function within Site Builder. The quickest way to start testing is to visit your site in another browser where you are not currently logged in or in a private window in your browser (e.g. Chrome's Incognito mode, or Firefox's Private Window).
If your course is not published yet, any buttons that are linked to checkout will go to a 404 page. They will go to the checkout as expected once you publish!
