Cart Widget Busted

    I have several sites running wp4.3 with genesis theme. All my clients contacted me to say that their cart was busted.

    Yep, sure enough the widget called “WP Paypal Shopping Cart” that I had sitting in my sidebar no longer works.

    Are you guys aware of this? I believe it happened with my last upgrade (cart 4.1.3) I believe?

    Note to anyone whom requires an immediate fix: the cart shortcode: [show_wp_shopping_cart] still works.

    Hi, yes the developers are aware of the issue. It is a bug in WordPress 4.3. The fix will come out in WordPress next release 4.3.1. In the meanwhile these are the instructions the developers published.

    hi – i am running Wp 4.3.1 and Simple PayPal Shopping Cart s v 4.1.4. the cart widget says it is empty. i have replaced text as advised above with no luck.
    I have used widget as well as a text box using [show_wp_shopping_cart] to show cart and this tells me cart is empty.
    [wp_compact_cart] shows empty cart.
    have also changed code on posts/items from [wp_cart:Sally:price:65:shipping:9.90:end]
    to [wp_cart_button name=”Sally” price=”65″ shipping=”9.90″].
    any help appreciated!

    @yanmaisee did you test by making a purchase? Was the shopping cart still empty?

    Can you share your URL?

    clicked on add to cart button, which brings up our next page for details to be submitted – this is all live not sandbox. side widget always used to display cart. now does not. the product post to order is Sally as i have only changed code on that item. newsteadflowers.com.au.

    even if i go thru the order process i do not get a chance to checkout or redirection to paypal

    So sad

    Hi, I just tested your link above and I was able to add one item to the cart. I then clicked on the PayPal button and it took me to PayPal for payment which of course I did not make ??

    I then went back to your website and deleted the order and that cleared the shopping cart. So I can confirm that it did work for me.

    i have solved part of the issue. i was running a redirect page that came up with a form made in contact form 7 after add to cart. as soon as i removed this redirect page the cart appears.i can get the cart and form to appear in a widget on side bar but not on a redirect page at all.
