Checkout Layout Tinkering

[kathiekoehn]

Hello. I'm trying to remove extra white space at the top of my shop. Right now the Home/View Cart is at the top giving it extra space. Is there a way to toggle this off so that it will push my checkout page a little bit higher.



If not, is there somewhere I can go and remove this extra padding?

Please and thank you.

What template are you using for the shopping cart? Look at Commerce Setup > Order System > Layout Info in the Shopping Cart Template section.
Once we know the template we might be able to tell you what template file(s) you will need to edit.

The top row of the window with the Home link is coming from the submenu and will have link to your home page and to the shopping cart and possibly other store pages.

A large part of the space below that menu is being used by this code <div id="mu-headerspecials"> … </div> So it is probably for global cross-sell items.

You can change the code by editing the template Multi-Use-Cart.sst and finding the above code and removing just that line.
To edit the template you need to go to Merchandising > Custom Templates > Shopping Cart, chose the Copy ShopSite template and select the Multi-Use-Cart.sst from the list. Give it the name Multi-Use-Cart.sst1 (note the 1 at the end) and click the Copy button. Next select the template from the list box and click Edit Template. Make the change and Save the template. Then select the template name from the list again and click the Copy Template button and give it the name Multi-Use-Cart.sst (i.e. delete the 1 at the end of the name) and save changes. That should fix the problem with a large amount of the blank space.
