Items in shopping cart – incorrectly totaled

[djlove]

The total displayed should be the number of “total items” in your cart, not the number of different items. Therefore, if I order 5 of the same item, it should report 5 items in my cart.

The logic behind this is that if I order a single item and then add another of the same, my price changes correctly, and if the number of items doesn’t, it’s very misleading. If my price changes, I must have ordered another item.

Please verify this by visiting Amazon.com. Each item I add (even if they are all of the same item) displays as another item added to my cart.

From a programming perspective, you should be totalling the total quantity, not the total items.

I understand what you are saying. Is this one of the compact cart shortcode? Which exact shortcode are you using?

The shortcode is: [wp_eStore_display_compact_cart show_empty=0 show_sub_total=1 show_title=0 show_cart_image=0]

Thank you. I have updated the extra shortcodes plugin to take care of this. Please download a new copy of the extra eStore shortcodes plugin and you will see the new behavior:
