Mini Cart problem with custom template

Postby Dan Richards » Sat Jul 24, 2004 12:16 pm

Hi,

I'm having trouble getting the mini cart to work with my custom templates.
I follow the instructions and I get a strange error on the page. See this
page as an example:

http://www.aboutrubberstamps.com/test1.html

The template code is below: Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Try putting <style> tags around the code, as in:

<style type="text/css">

[-- INCLUDE Sidebar-MiniCart.css PROCESS --]
[-- END_IF --]
</style>

Make sure you also turn on the minicart in the backoffice under:
Commerce Setup -> Order System -> Layout

Re: Mini Cart problem with custom template

Postby Dan Richards » Sun Jul 25, 2004 3:49 am

Hi Rob,

Yes, it was turned on. I've gotten the mini cart to work in other templates
when I place the minicart js in the Text 1 field. Just when I want to embed
it in the template itself that it doesn't like it.

Does the template code look alright?

Thanks

The template code you are using looks ok to me. You could try embedding the
actual javascript code in your template, found at:

http://www.shopsite.com/help/7.0/en-US/ ... ples1.html

Just replace the variables at the top with your store values. See if that
works.

Yes, it was turned on. I've gotten the mini cart to work in other
templates
when I place the minicart js in the Text 1 field. Just when I want to
embed
it in the template itself that it doesn't like it.

Does the template code look alright?

Thanks

Hi Rob,

That fixed the error on the page, but still no mini cart. Any other
suggestions?

Thanks

Try putting <style> tags around the code, as in:

style type="text/css"

[-- INCLUDE Sidebar-MiniCart.css PROCESS --]

I'm having trouble getting the mini cart to work with my custom
templates.
I follow the instructions and I get a strange error on the page.

Hi Rob,

That worked fine, thanks for your help, that will make it much easier. Not
sure why it didn't work before, oh well,
off to bigger and better things.

Re: Mini Cart problem with custom template

Postby Shopsite Forum » Mon Jul 26, 2004 2:37 pm

From what i see of it, it is an error with your javascript. You should be
able to get away with using only one set of quotes in the Javscript (" ...
"). All the double quotes in the middle that are around various HTML tags
(like the set around the color etc) are what is giving the Javascript error.
Simply remove them and you should be fine. Rick Hendrickson
