View Shopping Cart Content

[7tooz]

On the index page of my site I have text "Shopping Cart now in your cart 0 items" and until about 5 seconds ago did not realize that the "0 items" part of the text was an actual link to take me to the cart. If I didn't know it...my Customers will not either so I am looking to make that stand out by making the "Shopping Cart" part of the text into an actual button.

 

I haven't seen anything posted here or on the web that could help me achieve this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a fantastic new contribution, that is not hard to install, that will give you a jquery lightbox-like popup everytime you add something to the cart. It also has links to 'checkout', 'continue' and 'view/modify cart'.

ps - That text is in includes/languages/english.php. Just open the file and search for 'Shopping Cart now in your cart' . If it is not in that file it is in the language file connected to index.php (includes/languages/english/index.php ?)

If you delete the shopping cart button in includes/languages/english/images/buttons, the program defaults to the text in the button itself. That button text can be found in includes/languages/english.php. You can edit that text there, and can even add html, for example <b> or <h1> tags to get it to stand out.

ps - that last bit is incorrect, deleting the button just deletes the button.
