Product/Category pages link in Product/Category edit screens should link to the associated store
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Key: OFBIZ-1803
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1803
Project: OFBiz
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: ecommerce, product
Affects Versions: SVN trunk
Reporter: Bruno Busco
Priority: Minor

The EditCategory and EditProduct pages are provided of a "Category Page" and "Product Page" link that allow the user to easily open the page of the Web site that shows the category or the product being edited.
The link at the moment is static and points to a URL like /ecommerce/control/category.....

This should rather be dynamic so to link to the WebStore that is linked to the Catalog that could have a different URL.

----------------------------------------

Do we really need this link?

We could be pragmatic and simply C/P the URL used locally or put it in bookmarks/favorite/etc., or keep the product page opened in a tabs, etc.

That could be enough IMO, and then the issue removed.

-----------------------------------

how would one get the url to bookmark when in the catalog manager.
If you just added product and wanted to view the finished page.

I have not thought this through all the way yet.
Plus David is working on a Multiple hosting solution so his approach may
not be the same.
First consideration is do you want the catalog to be independent of the
product store, say like for just a user login.
Not sure of the best practices about where to place actual links
Each Ecommerce has a web.xml and ofbiz-component.xml
The Web.xml lets you define parameters to be used in that specific
component. so you can use a parameter there.
you could consider taking data from the webapp in the ofbiz-component.xml.

it also has productstore entity and Website Entity.
if all your catalogs will be tied to a product store, you might use the
website entity as a source.

my 2cents

------------------------------------

We should also consider that this button actually introduces a dependance of the product component on the ecommerce one that should not be.
This is a good example of where the menu merge feature we discussed in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3373 would be usefull.
The product component should define the menu without these buttons.
The ecommerce application (or any other application implementing the web store) could merge into the product defined menu a new button with the proper URL.
