BMS Website - Revamp & Comments

[bms]

Passwords can now be changed to something more memorable when you login. This is in the admin area once you have logged in.

Hi Martin (or BMS Staff),

although I think the new site is fantastic and everything can be found at the click of a button is there anyway of keeping logged into the site?

To explain, this morning I have been adding things to my basket and then I left it for about 40mins - 1hr whilst I was doing other things (the window was still open during this time).

When I added something else to the basket it said that my basket was empty and I needed to log in again, after logging in - my basket was empty

I know it's not any settings I have as baskets for other sites remain once added.

I thought this was me before as I had been adding things to my basket and then thought I'd carry on when I got home (but nothing there when I got home).

Many thanks guys


Adam

I agree. I think there needs to be some kind of persistent shopping cart or, at the very least, a way of saving your cart so you can come back later.

I'm often working out what I need on my iPad over several hours or a couple of days and, every time I return to the site, I have to start all over again.

The likes of the amazon website let's me keep things in my cart for as long as is needed, and I can switch from iPad to PC to phone and the items are always there - very convenient.

I'll forward the comments to our website developer and see what can be done...

May have taken a while, but as we mentioned in our newsletter yesterday, this is being done shortly now.

Just to confirm that this is now operational. Your shopping cart will be retained for as long as it is needed (for customers who are logged in) and will be shown next time you login. It will also update if any products which have been added to your basket have gone out of stock since you last visited.

In the admin section you can now streamline your preferences for news depending if you want general info/ offers, specifically sublimation or specifically edible product news.

Our website will also now warn you if you are trying to checkout without logging in so that you can gain your loyalty points. Of course if you don't want to register then you can still checkout without logging in.

Hopefully these improvements will make the process of using our website easier.

Definately love the checking out without logging in bit.. after purchasing my Ricoh and some other bits - forgetting to log-in in the process, losing loyalty points...lol
