Hello, I want to make a PC configurator website. But I'm having some issues when the user wants to select an item for its PC.

I will leave a link of what it should look like:
I can’t leave URL links so just remove the space between (pcpartpicker .com)

It should look like this, when you press the button to choose a pc part, it should direct you to another link where you choose the parts that you want.
For example if you want to choose a CPU, you click on “Choose a CPU”, it then directs you to a link where you need to choose what CPU you like, and then click on “Add”.

After that, it should redirect you back to the first page, when you press Add, it will save the part into your cart and then you go for other parts.

Can you help me build a same kind of site?

Here is the link to my site:

Oh yeah, the page will not open because it is a dynamic page(( but there isn’t anything really important anyway.

So when you click on Choose CPU, it should direct you to the page where you choose a CPU (I know how to link a button to a page).

1920×856 86.3 KB

Now, when clicking on the button that says “Button” …xD, I don’t know how to link it to a specific item from my database, when you preview the site you will see this:

1904×803 35.5 KB

And then when you click the button it will just redirect you to the previous page without saving the input data because the site doesn’t know that the user has actually selected anything.

After you have selected it, I want to show the user that he has selected a specific part(I know how to do it).

Is it possible to do it without coding?

Hallo Dan,

you have chosen an interessting project, but without any knowledge in coding, it will be very difficult or even impossible to create a site like " pcpartpicker .com". Of course you have possibilities with Wix own coding-free elements, but if you want to have a more interactive website, then you will need coding-knowledge (HTML/CSS and of course JavaScript) CORVID is based on JavaScript.

But try it yourself and do not give up. You have here in this forum a great possibility to learn programm a website.

You can also take a look at this site here, where you will find several examples, how to code and solve problems…

If you do not have the time or passion for this, then you can also hire a programmer who can do the work for you.

Here you can hire a freelancer or master…

You can also contact me if you need help with your project (look into my profile).

And by the way, this forum just handle with coding-issues, for help with non code related problems look here…

Good luck with your project.

Я понял😉
Hello Dan,

i just looked one more time at your site, you just get started right?
Good advise, try to learn CORVID as fast as possible if you want to fullfill/realize your project. You will need it all the time.

Edit: Кстати, я все еще учу CORVID
You can follow my posts, perhaps you can learn in this way a little bit faster.:grin:

Hello dima, I’m not really really new to wix, here is my first website made with wix, But it’s over loaded, basically I need to get rid of some stuff, make it easier for some older people to understand my site and I need to also add code to it and then I will be literally a pro.

Ok, there are some goods end evils :grin:
This menu for example is not bad.

  • some movement (animated)

  • clear


You use an app like WixStores i think.
Keep it clear like this and not to overloaded. Try also to give more “white-space”.
But these are just my own sights of design :grin:

Here you use a background-video, yes it’s cool and nice and you can also use it,
but i would not make it to big (you lose website space).

On my opinion the second video is superfluous.

Always think about the fact, we people are LAZY, we do not want to scroll kilometres/miles on websites to find what we are searching for, or click trouhg 1000menus and sub-menus :wink:

Why i am telling you this, because —> interactivity of your page can solve this problems and for this you will need some CODE :roll_eyes:

But as i asume, you are now in the right direction to rework your project.
