Ajax Add to cart error

Hi there,

I tested this same scenario with a pretty vanilla install of WooCommerce and it works the same way, that says to me this is by design and just the way the AJAX request works. I’m not certain there is a way around, plus it doesn’t seem a likely habit that shoppers have.

Do you see requests for this way of shopping, where you quickly add products to the cart by rapid-fire clicking?

Yes in my case the product is just one with different color variation and the customer will keep adding colors in the cart quickly.

So it needs to be real quick and optimize in terms of adding to cart.

Or either even while loading it should allow other products to be added.

Please help this is last error remain in terms of deliverables.

Thanks!

Hi there,

I took a look at your site and it’s all working as it should other than that the site is loading rather slowly. I’m afraid there’s no way to modify this behavior as the issue isn’t with the AJAX functionality, it’s with the overall speed of the site.

You’ll want to work on optimizing your site speed so that the add to cart function executes more quickly with each click. Here’s some info on optimizing your site’s speed: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/troubleshooting-a-slow-site/

Hi,
I implemented wpcache plugin… also compressed all the images through wpsmush pro.

It has improved the site loadtime but the ajax cart issue is still the same taking too much time to be added to cart

Seems like the error is with ajax only.

Hi there,

You may want to see if some of the plugins, or the theme, you have installed on the site are causing issues as well. In order to do so, you can complete a conflict test as outlined here: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-self-service-guide/#section-4

Hi I also tried with with the new woocommerce install on the twenty sixteen theme. It reduced the ajax add to cart loadtime… But when I continuously add products at the same time (when the ajax loader is spinning) it removes the previously added product from the cart widget.

Yes, if you add to cart while the spinner is spinning, that is the expected behavior. The user should wait until the spinner stops before adding another. You can keep working on speed issues to reduce the amount of time the spinner is present, but if they choose more than one at a time, while the spinner is there, the issue will always be present.
