    Hello.

    So what I would ultimately like to accomplish, is to have a ‘View Cart’ button somewhere on the site… I ended up taking away the footer area, and I believe it may have originally been there. But I don’t see an option for that anywhere on my site…

    Right now (for me) if I go to the ‘shop’ and add something to the cart, it says: ‘This product cannot be added to your cart because it already contains a pre-order, which must be purchased separately.’

    So the customer should be able to see a ‘view cart’ button somewhere, to be able to remove certain items that they don’t want (and in this case are not allowing further items to be added).

    Any ideas on how to do this would be hugely appreciated!

    Any ideas on this?

    Or do I need to re enable the footer section, in order to be able to see a ‘view cart’ link?… There has to be a way to access the checkout section, without just having the link appear in the footer… like a little cart icon? Or just a ‘view cart’ button?…

    There must be something I’m missing here. Is it something to do with booster modules?…

    Thanks again in advance!

    Here is a couple things on this I’ve learned, that might be a clue towards the solution:…

    When I go to Woocommerce – Checkout – then under checkout pages, the ‘cart page’ has ‘cart’ in the dropdown, but the other two dropdowns (checkout page, terms and conditions) are blank. And there aren’t any relevant options to choose… only ‘donation confirmation’… which sounds like an option from an old plugin I was trying out, but then deactivated and deleted… shouldn’t I have an option for ‘checkout’ and ‘my account’?

    And I went to ‘status – tools – create default Woocommerce pages’ and that seemed to have done nothing.

    I also have the ‘pre-orders’ add on installed, is that somehow messing things up?

    I’m lost…

    Update:

    Okay so I managed to delete the ‘donations’ stuff that was going on, I guess that plugin created pages, that I needed to delete manually.

    And then I guess I needed to set the ‘checkout’ and ‘my account’ pages to be public. For some reason they were private.

    But now I’m kind of in the same position. I would like the customer to have an option for ‘cart’ right there in the product page. Not just hiding away in the footer. Because I would like to just get rid of the footer (like it was before, I put it back to troubleshoot this…)

    Any ideas?!

    Okay, so I found a plugin called ‘Woocommerce Menu Cart’, and installed it.

    It somewhat works how I would like it, but it seems super glitchy… it disappears when clicking on the ‘shop’ link, which is really the time you would want it to be there.

    I would ideally like simple cart icon that just sits there all the time… or a button that’s always visible to the customer that says ‘cart’. So they don’t have to add something before they’re able to view the cart…

    Tricky stuff… maybe I need to hire a web designer to help me…

    Well, no replies. But this plugin, although extremely glitchy at first, kept appearing and disappearing, seems to be sticking around now. So I suppose this thing is resolved, although it’s a compromise.
