How to redirect to a PHP page?

Question

On my PHP website there is a purchase page. I am thinking of adding a thankyou.php after successfully purchasing from https://secure.shareit.com/shareit/checkout.html?productid=

How can I create a Thank You page and redirect customers to that page after successfully purchasing my product?

I am assuming that you have figured it out if the user has done payment successfully.

If it success redirect to success.php

header("Location: success.php");

If it fails redirect to error.php

header("Location: error.php");

Also, if you want to send him on the location where he started payment do this and use status to show him success/failure

header("Location: main.php?status=error") OR header("Location: main.php?status=success")

you can access this variable by doing this $_GET['status'].

Hey.. If you have any condition to check to the purchase done, use the header: code to redirect to the new location – Ahamed Safnaj Feb 12 '20 at 07:11

Here is an example. Let's say completing purchase is inserting the records to a table without any errors. Once its inserted successfully you can redirect to different page using header function.

global $DBConnect;
$Query = "INSERT INTO posts(datetime,title,category,author,image,post)
          VALUES('$DateTime','$Title','$Category','$Admin','$Image','$Post')";
$Execute = mysqli_query($DBConnect,$Query);

if($Execute){
   //Success
   header("Location: thanks-page.php");
}else{
   //Error
   header("Location: error-page.php");
 }
