Hi

We are building an eCom solution, where the products have different prices in different countries/markets. What we want to achieve, is for visitors to land on the relevant pages, based on where they come from. So If you are visiting the page from Denmark, you land on one page with a specific set of prices and currency - and if you visiti the page from eg. Germany, you are directed to another website, with different prices and currency.

What is the best way to do this, and can it be done in standard Dynamicweb?

/Hans

Hi Hans,

It can't be done standard, but it's not too hard to do custom either. You can subscribe to Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Application.AuthenticateRequest. grab the user's IP address, convert that to a country code and then check the site the user is on. If the country code of the user doesn't match the one of the site, redirect the user, otherwise leave them on the site.

You'll need a few additional checks to bypass this logic (users in the backend, specific URLs for payment gateways, for example) and use a cookie to prevent the user from being redirected too often.

More info here: https://doc.dynamicweb.com/forum/cms-standard-features/cms-standard-features/use-geolocationservice-lookup-in-solution 

I can send you some sample code if you're interested. It's not fully  production-ready but it could be a start,..

Imar
