Cart in menu

Hey SomeBloke!

You could add a cart page link to the menu (Appearance > Menus). If you want to display an icon instead of the word “cart” insert this code into the menu title field:

<span aria-hidden="true" data-av_icon="" data-av_iconfont="entypo-fontello"></span>

Cheers!

Hey!

You could register a new shortcode which outputs the cart total. Insert this code into the child theme functions.php file or enfold/functions.php:

function avia_total_cart_ammount_shortcode() {
     global $woocommerce; $output = '';
     if(!empty($woocommerce->cart->get_cart_total())) $output = $woocommerce->cart->get_cart_total();
     return $output;
}
add_shortcode('av_total_cart', 'avia_total_cart_ammount_shortcode');

and use this code as menu item title:

<span aria-hidden="true" data-av_icon="" data-av_iconfont="entypo-fontello"></span> [av_total_cart]

However the main problem is that it won’t update if the user clicks the “Add to cart” button on the shop page and imo this will irritate many users. Our cart icon opens the default woocommerce ajax cart widget which updates the amount automatically (via ajax) if the user adds a new item to the cart but the solution I provided above does not support such a feature.

Cheers!
