The Add To Cart Feature In Base Template
The add to cart feature allows users to add a gift to their cart without the page refreshing. This can be configured on any giving content.
*How to configure:*
- Open the architect component
- Select the giving content type that you want to add the feature to
- Right click on the giving content type and select manage fields
- You should now see all of the different fields for that content type
Add a new field by clicking “Add” in the top left corner
- Fill out the following fields:
- Type: Checkbox
- Label: Add To Cart
- Alias: add_to_cart
- Box Label: Check this to add to cart without refreshing
- Save and Close
- To configure an item, open the Site Planner Component and locate the folder of the content type that you added the feature to. You can either add a new item or open an existing one, and the Add To Cart checkbox should appear at the bottom of the content item.
- To test, make a contribution to the giving content on the front end, and it should keep you on the same page instead of redirecting. The shopping cart will also give you a preview of the contribution made.
