nopCommerce 2.40
want to go to advanced search from Homepage Headerlinks.cshtml

right now there is search box but I added advanced link and not sure what I have to modify so can go to search page with advanced search already open.

Simply add the query param "As=true" to the URL

/search?q=my%20product&As=true

Thank you.

What is the best way to learn NOP commerce v2.4.
I know initially will take time to learn but I need to learn quickly.
I got introduced to NOP last week.
I am new to MVC so going through http://www.asp.net/mvc/overview/getting-started but it is kind of hard to translate simple mvc to NOP v2.4
I will appreciate if anyone can guide me.
Thanks

Honestly, I learned it simply by dissecting thee code as deep as I could.  I started with 1.5, then jumped to 1.9.  1.9 was my fav and I refused to make the MVC shift of 2.x...  Finally, I was looking for a plugin styled system and bit the bullet and downloaded 2.4...  

I hated it... MVC... Razor... Non-strongly typed methods (like referencing a controller and action by its string name)... But I loved the Entity Framework...

After digging for 2 solid weeks, it clicked...  I FRIGGIN' LOVE 2.4! However, note I still hate the non-strongly typed methods...

Long story short, dig in and set break points everywhere.  Begin at Global.asax and follow the thread...  It's probably how most of us not involved in the community development of Nop all started.

It's going to take time and patience...  But it's worth it!
