APF Bridge Demo And Development Site

Hi...my install went fine, and the main script loads in the front end of Joomla; however, once you click a link, it jumps outside of joomla and shows just the script page, without the rest of the site content.

Q: The front page of my store displays correctly - but when I click on a link I am taken to APF, not to Joomla with APF Bridge.
A: This is most commonly caused by incorrectly setting the APF path parameter in the Components -> APF by MrRat

How does this happen:
When APF Bridge retrieves a page from APF the content contains links to the full APF script.
The bridge looks for these links - which by definition contain the correct 'path to APF'
Assuming that your settings are correct APF Bridge looks for the path you specified and replaces links with links to Joomla.
Because you give the wrong path - APF bridge doesn't locate links containing the data you provided - the links are left pointing to the full store.
Any click on such links takes you to the full APF installation

For most installations the two paths in the APF Bridge configuration should be

Url to APF Script:
http://www.<your-domain>.com/cgi-bin/apf4/amazon_products_feed.cgi

Path to APF Script relative to webroot:
/cgi-bin/apf4/amazon_products_feed.cgi

Thanks! That did the trick!
