Show # of items in the cart on the "Cart" menu button

[Yale Schachter]

Hi Again,

Has anyone ever been able to show the # of items in the cart (not the total quantity - just the # of individual items) on the "Cart" menu button?

Thanks,

Yale

Hi Yale

You can add the following code to the End of the Master Pages (ThemedPage.Master and ThemedPageFullWidth.Master)

This will allow you to use the xmp.sdk.storeFrontParams.currentUser.itemsInCar value to display the number of items in the cart.

<%

int cartCount = 0;

if(!uStore.Common.BLL.CustomerInfo.Current.IsAnonymous){

try{

cartCount = uStoreAPI.OrderProduct.GetOrderProductList(uStoreAPI.Order.GetUserCartId(uStore.GenParams.StoreID ,uStore.Common.BLL.CustomerInfo.Current.UserID),false).Length;

} catch(Exception e){

// Error Here

}              

Response.Write("<script language=javascript>\n");

Response.Write("xmp.sdk.storeFrontParams.currentUser.itemsInCart  = " + cartCount+ "\n");

Response.Write("</script>\n");  

}

%>

Hi Wayne,

Thanks for the reply. Do I not need to have the A{PI license in order to use the API / SDK calls?

Could you expand more on how to display the value?

[Wayne]

Many different ways

This should give you some idea's and can be added to the Store Front JavaScript section

$("document").ready(function() {

if(xmp.sdk.storeFrontParams.currentUser.itemsInCart > 0 ){

    $('#Cart a').append('<div class="numberCircle" style="border-radius: 50%;float: right;display: block;position: relative;width: 36px;top: -5px;left: 12px;height: 36px;padding: 8px;background: #fff;border: 2px solid #666;color: #666;text-align: center;font: 32px Arial, sans-serif;">' + xmp.sdk.storeFrontParams.currentUser.itemsInCart +  '</div>');}

});

Wayne

Hi Wayne,

In the line "if(xmp.sdk.storeFrontParams" etc., does that mean I need to have a license to use the uStore API?

Thanks,

Yale

The xmp.sdk is a JavaScript object and is part of uStore and not really related to the uStore API, it is my understanding that you don't need a license to use.

However couch would be better suited to comment on this.

Got it working. Thanks for your help!

Hi Wayne,

What other details can we get from: xmp.sdk.storeFrontParams.currentUser ?

I know we can get things like storeID, user email, user first name / last name, user company,

but i didn't know about the shopping cart

is there documentation somewhere?

[Wayne]

Jon,

shopping cart information is not normally found in the xmp object.

The code I sent just adds an "itemsInCart" Property.

Use your Browser Dev tool to look at the xmp object
