   @Michael, I think the following compact shopping cart option will do the job:

   Hey,
   Is there any way to add a Shopping Cart Icon in the header of the page? Just one which shows what the visitor has in their shopping cart regardless of the page their on?

   @Debbie, The eStore has a sold out option. You can enter in the amount of tickets you have for an event (example 100). Once the 100 tickets have been sold the buy button will become a sold out image.

   If you restock the product the sold out image will change back to a buy button until the new stock is gone

   I just fount your eSTORE plugin – does it have the capability to limit the amount of sales? It looks like it does but I just want to be sure. Thanks!

   After trying way too many event registration plugins, I found your plugin and decided it was the better way to go for my business. As a designer and not a programmer, I love the ease of configuration and the control I have over how my pages look. My only request is that there be some way to keep track of sales, so that if an event fills up, people won’t be able to pay for spots that aren’t available. Thank you!

    @Sonny, Click on the shopping cart installation and usage documentation link in the page above. Then search for the word “variation” and you will find the section that has shortcode examples.

    Hi!
    Great Site! Learning TONS!

    Can you tell me where I can find the variations “copy paste” short codes for the different products? Cant seem to find them or figure out how to do that? Trying to create a nice product box with three different options each for several different products.
    Thanks!

    hi

    I want to update to the latest wordpress and the newer version of your plugin. do you think i will have a problems upgrading from v3.2.3 and WP v3.1.2?

    @Yandoo, There is definitely a space there. Your theme probably doesn’t have any padding or margin defined for your table’s td element. Try adding the following CSS to add some space:
    
.shopping_cart td{
padding: 0px 3px;
}

    Nice plugin, slight issue with side widget. The subtotal and total don’t have a space before the amount, after the:
    Subtotal:£10.00, Total:£10.00

    How do I add a space please?
    Subtotal: £10.00
    Total: £10.00

    Also how can you increase line height of sub, total and shipping (they are a bit close together)

    Thanks 🙂

    @Terry, you can add the shopping cart shortcode on any page you want. Simply add the following shortcode on your items page:

    [always_show_wp_shopping_cart]

    @Steve, What do you mean by multi-buy discount option?
21. Terry says:

    February 5, 2014 at 4:58 pm

    How can I get an empty cart to display on the items page? That area of the page is empty until something is added to the cart. I have the text “your cart is empty” in the empty cart field on the setup page.

    Hi
    This plugin is great, I’ve used it for a couple of client sites who wanted a simple solution that worked, and this ticks all the boxes. Almost. Is it possible to set up a multibuy discount option or do I need the pro version for that?

    Thanks

    @Narcs, You can update the language file of the plugin and send it to us. That way we will be able to include the updated language file in the next version.

    @Pierangelo, You have a bit of issue with HTTP POST on your site. Maybe your theme is messing something up. Do what is explained in the video labelled “Create a Specific Checkout Page” and you should have a workaround.

    First of alla Great Plugin!
    I’m using it with a one page site template and I’ve got some problems with the specific checkout page. I’ve followed exactly your tutorial but when I click on the “add to cart” it result as an error “OOPS! THAT PAGE CAN’T BE FOUND.” But the section page is created and everything else is ok. Do you think could be because is a page section and not a page?
    Thank you

    I’m using this plugin along with NextGEN Gallery, but after updating the PayPal buttons are no longer showing up, I’m just seeing the code, for example: [wp_cart:NobleTruthEarrings:price:30:end]

    Any ideas why this stopped working and how to fix it?
    Thanks!

    @Melissa, You can customize the add to cart button text or use a custom image by configuring it in the settings menu of this cart plugin. Go to the settings and look for a field called “Add to Cart button text or Image”.

    When you have a Spanish version of WordPress installed or configured, it will detect it and use the Spanish language.

    How can I add my own add to cart button instead of the default one? The add to cart button in my blog is a plain gray button. I would like to add my own add to cart button. Can someone tell me if this is possible and how to do it?

    Thanks

    What’s the process of changing the language of the shopping cart? So that clients see the cart in spanish and not in english? I know that spanish language is inside the language folder, but I don’t know how to select that or configure it. Can someone help me?

    Thanks.

    @Laura, Have you used a different product name for the two products? For example: you can call the printed version “My Book – Printed” and the ebook version “My Book – eBook”
35. Laura Crowe says:

    September 5, 2013 at 7:52 pm

    I have two products I’d like to sell, a print book and an ebook. The print book works fine; when I add the ebook, it keeps repeating the information about the print book.

    @Manny, Credit cards are processed via PayPal. When the customer is redirected to PayPal they will have the option to pay with their PayPal account or a credit card. However depending on what type of account you use they may not see this options. You will need to check that your PayPal account will accept credit cards as this varies from country to country.

    The WordPress Simple Paypal Shopping Cart Plugin is good. It shows the Paypal button. It also shows credit card pictures but can not process credit card orders.
    What if customer wants to pay via credit card? Can you tell me how to include credit cards. Thank you.

    Does anyone know if this plugin will still work properly with the new WordPress 3.5.2 update?

    @MBenedek, You can translate the shopping cart plugin to any language you want. Look inside the language folder and you will see that it has already been translated to a few different languages. If you create the .mo and .po files for your language then I can include it in the plugin.

    Hello,

    I am very interested by this plugin and would like to use it on a website, but the website will be in Polish language and it would be great if the elements of Shopping Cart Plugin displayed on the website could be in Polish too. Do you think that it would be difficult to make a translation and implement it? Any advice as to how to do it? Would you approve such a modification. I would be very happy to contribute to this project by sharing the translation. In Poland there are 40 mln people who would certainly be interested by this plugin.

    Everything is working fine except when using the shopping cart as a widget on the side and you click on the shopping cart button (thinking you are going to the main shopping cart page) it just takes you back to the websites home page. What setting changes this?
