Forced Products :: CF Pro Tools Add-On Features For ClickFunnels



Description and Best Use Case For This Add-On:

This add-on script allows you to force a product into the cart such as a shipping cost or additional item you want the customer to have. 


You could create a forced continuity program to offer in addition to the program you are selling, that is one of the oldest continuity techniques in the book and this add-on would make it seamless to charge a single fixed price product AND a subscription product!

Note:  You'll need an Order Summary Element On Your Page In Order To See Total Amounts.



Step 3:  Add ORDER SUMMARY Add-On


In order for CART MODE to function correctly, you'll need the ORDER SUMMARY Add-on Installed.


Please refer to this document for additional info on installing Order Summary:   Click Here For Help Doc


Please ensure the ORDER SUMMARY add-on script is at the TOP of the list of add-ons installed as it should load before other cart altering add-ons.




Step 4:  Grab Your Product ID


Grab the product ID for the product you would like to force into the cart and copy it to your virtual clipboard.  



You will need the product ID link or numeric numbers for the next step while you are setting up the add-on.






Step 5:  Create Your Add-on Script


For most add-on installations of the FORCED PRODUCTS script, you can simply click the CREATE NEW button:



Please note:  For each order page where you wish to force a product into the cart, you'll need a unique version of this script.   Do not use the same unique script over and over.



... now do a keyword search for FORCED PRODUCTS


Once you have located the FORCED PRODUCTS script, click the thumbnail image and create the add-on per the installation instructions.



You will need to name your script.   We recommend a naming convention like this:

FP (Test Funnel) or
FORCED PRODUCTS (Book Funnel)

It's best to name it with the name of the add-on AND in parentheses, make sure to name which funnel it belongs to so you can easily identify later.


After creating the name of the script, click the blue button to ADD a FORCED PRODUCT:




At this point you should have the product ID saved in your virtual clipboard so you can PASTE it into the required field by pressing CNTRL-V or APPLE-V (on a mac).



If you paste the full link in this field, most of the URL will be stripped out and only the product ID will be visible. 


Once you have completed this area, click the red button below to create your add-on script.




Step 6:  Install Your Add-on Script


You can now copy your newly generated script out by clicking the blue button where your script is located.

The button says, "COPY CODE", this will copy the script to your virtual clipboard.


You are now ready to paste the script into your FOOTER TRACKING CODE AREA.


Please navigate to your funnel step where you wish to highlight one of your products.


Click SETTINGS --> TRACKING CODE




Now click the FOOTER CODE, and paste your code in:



Now SAVE your page, you are ready to preview and test your new add-on!
