Disable Cart Fragments by Optimocha

Description

Disable Cart Fragments is a lightweight plugin which effectively speeds up your WooCommerce website by disabling the cart fragments script. It also enqueues the script back when the cart is not empty anymore; so it only works while the cart is empty.

Why is disabling cart fragments important?

WooCommerce makes an AJAX request to check your cart and update your cart totals in wherever your theme shows cart contents (like the header menu). This AJAX call is made to override caching plugins, which is good, but it generally takes time.

How does Disable Cart Fragments solve the issue?

With our plugin, you have the best of both worlds: You keep using the caching plugin and you still get to update the cart totals when the cart is not empty. This check is made via WooCommerce cart cookies, so it still employs JavaScript but doesn’t rely on slow AJAX requests. The check is made instantly, whether you’re using a caching plugin or not. How cool is that?

[Fixed] Non-dismissible advertisement for Shop Manager role users

Updated my review from 1 to 3 stars as author replied here and presumably allowed the notice to be dismissed (I’ve replaced the plugin so I cannot verify). This plugin advertises speed optimization services via an admin notification but unfortunately it is dismissible for administrator level accounts but not for shop manager accounts. Either an unfortunate bug or intentionally advertising to less privileged user accounts. Either way, we replaced this plugin with one that doesn’t do this.

Great!

• New uninstall.php.

1.21
