I noticed on someone else's site here (www.outdoorfurnitureplus.com (http://www.outdoorfurnitureplus.com)) that when a product is added to the cart, it then displays the cart with a checkout link, and a continue shopping link. I really like that option. Does that require a module?

No, you just edit the Product Template where it says "Screen=PROD" to Screen=BASK.
And on the CTGY Page, where it says Screen="CTGY", same thing.

And, on the basket screen you'll need to place your checkout link (tip: look in the Advanced Mode for the navigation bar, that will give you the proper code to use for the checkout link).

Got it. Here's exactly where it's done for future reference:
Pages > Product Display > Product Display Latout > Advanced
Find:
<form method="post" action="&mvt:global:sessionurl;">
<input type="hidden" name="Action" value="ADPR">
<input type="hidden" name="Screen" value="PROD">
Replace with this:
<form method="post" action="&mvt:global:sessionurl;">
<input type="hidden" name="Action" value="ADPR">
<input type="hidden" name="Screen" value="BASK">

On my category page, I replaced
<input type="hidden" name="Action" value="ADPR">
<input type="hidden" name="Product_Code" value="&mvte:product:code;">
<input type="hidden" name="Quantity" value=1>
<input type="hidden" name="Screen" value="OINF">
with:
<input type="hidden" name="Action" value="ADPR">
<input type="hidden" name="Product_Code" value="&mvte:product:code;">
<input type="hidden" name="Quantity" value=1>
<input type="hidden" name="Screen" value="BASK">

On my category page, I replaced
with:
What you changed there was the Buy One Now button, not the Add to Basket button.

What you changed there was the Buy One Now button, not the Add to Basket button.
I wasn't quite sure where to change the other one from, but when I stepped back and thought about the buttons functonality, it seemed to make sense.
Buy One Now goes to the cart
Add to Basket leaves visitor in the category view page

By default, Add One adds the product, Buy One takes them right to checkout. You should just remove the Buy One altogether and just use Add One (and modify that to go to the BASK screen).
How do we get the "continue shopping" button and link on there? Please let me know if I need to start a new thread for this question...

You would have to manually create one, and without a module, you'll have a very difficult time getting them back to the product or category they added from. You would be better to have the continue shopping button take them back to the storefront.
Perfect! Thanks very much!
