Show grey shopping cart guy in the sidebar

[Louis]

@petreski, I know lolol! It’s me who commented this out deliberately, simply because it did not work in the sidebar widget (as explained).

So, I kept the code in there, just to remember and to watch out for it… I do that a lot. You know sometimes you learn something, and you forget… so this way I can always go back easily. Of course, I am SUPER organised as well, and I have back up of every tweak I learn as I go.

@admin, I currently have 6.1.2, which we received recently, is there a new version already? I think we subscribed for the automated updates, maybe to be on the safe side I’ll try again. Thank you

The code I mentioned will not work on the sidebar widget because the CSS class is different for that case.

I’ve just had a quick look on your site and you appear to have the following “eStore_compact_cart” class for the cart icon in the sidebar. You will have to enter the relevant code to cater for this too.

As mentioned previously, use FireBug to determine what you need to modify to get the behaviour you want.

Modifying the CSS to suit your needs is quite often a case of experimenting until you achieve the result which works for you.

I understand, thanks you.

I use the following short code [wp_eStore_display_compact_cart show_empty=1 show_sub_total=0 show_title=0 show_cart_image=1].

I see that on the HQ store website, when a product is added, the cart with the green tick doesn’t have the hand cursor.

Ideally it should link to the cart of course… and it would need a new entry (somewhere in the settings), because not everyone is using a cart page, so in that case it’s probably best to have it doing nothing.

So what does the new build fix/add exactly? I am a bit confused now.

So, would it be possible to get the cart picture (cart picture with green tick, showing when a item is added to cart) to link to the cart?

i.e the Cart page. As mentioned before, all you get is the hand cursor, and you cannot click on it.

I don’t think I am being demanding there? To my logic, it seems that what I am “asking” would be the correct behaviour.

okay I will add the following option:

If there is a value in the “Product Page” field then the cart picture with green tick will link to that page.

Thank you, much appreciated, looking forward to it.

Should we get auto updates via email when available if we subscribed right – no need to do manual requests?
