Family Roots Publishing Website Adds New Features

We’ve added two important features to the Family Roots Publishing Co. website. They are:

An Advanced Search – Using the Advanced Search, you can now search the database by:

  • Title Only
  • Description Only
  • Item # Only

If you choose to use the Search Box found in the upper left-hand corner of the Home page, your search is across the entire database, including all three above. We’ve found that as the database has grown, that “book title” search results were often buried within a long list of results. So using the title search to find specific books will speed things up dramatically.

The Advanced Search link is found immediately below the Product Search box.

A Wish List – In each product view page there is now a link to “Add to Wishlist” right above every Add to Cart button (Click here for an example, using a Flip-Pal page). If someone who is not logged in clicks that link they will be required to login first. Then the system will add the product to their personal wish list. There is also some text at the top of the wish list page telling the patron how to share their wish list with others and gives the URL to be shared. They can remove an item from the wishlist by simply clicking on the X.

If a patron is logged in, at the bottom of the left navigation menu is a link to “View Wishlist.” By clicking on that link, they can view what they have stored in their personal wishlist.
