This guide will walk you through various functions and configs available within the Cart section (Minicart & cart page), which allows you to show discount breakdown (list of all discount codes applied), grand total, and more.

Additionally, if you wish to hide the "View Cart" button, simply tick the "Hide 'View Cart" button" option within the config settings. This config prevents customers from accessing the cart page.

2. How to show cart note/cart instructions in mini cart and cart page?

Cart note is a feature designed to allow customers to input additional notes during the ordering process. These notes are then stored within the order information in the backend, enabling the admin to review and act accordingly.

To activate this feature, simply tick the "Enable cart note" config.

3. How to show terms and condition checkbox in minicart/cart page?

"Terms and Conditions Checkbox" serves the same purpose as in any other online platform. It is used during the checkout process to ensure that customers actively acknowledge and agree to the terms and conditions, privacy policy, or any other legal agreements before they can proceed with a purchase. 

To enable it in the Eurus theme, you just need to tick the "Enable terms and conditions checkbox" config. Additionally, you should add a page for the terms and conditions. Click the "Select page" button to choose the link that leads to your terms and conditions page.

Note:  Due to Shopify's restrictions, customers won't be required to tick this checkbox when checking out with a dynamic payment button.

4. How to modify the "Continue shopping" link when the cart is empty?

Locate the "Continue shopping" option. You can select a link that directs users to products, collections, or any preferred page.

Conclusion: 

By customizing minicart styles, enabling features like cart notes, and configuring the "Continue Shopping" link, you can tailor the cart and minicart section to match your brand and improve user convenience. These features not only help create an attractive cart interface but also streamline functionality to meet the specific needs of your e-commerce platform.

5. How to show the Payment method on Minicart & Cart page?

  • In Theme Editor, click on Theme Settings (the Gear icon ⚙️ on the 2nd position on the left sidebar).
  • Tick on the Enable payment icon box. The default payment icons from Shopify will be displayed.
  • (Optional) You can customize your preferred payment icons by adding or replacing them with SVG code.

6. How to show the saving amounts for the order on cart?

Showing savings on your cart page and mini cart can motivate customers to buy more by letting them know how much money they save. Here’s how:

In Theme Editor, go to Theme Settings (or the Gear icon) > Tap on Cart > Tick the box that says Show savings amount > Click Save.

7. How to hide the minicart/cart page?

Why You Might Want to Hide the Cart:

  • For businesses selling wholesale or to other businesses, it may be preferable to have customers contact sales representatives directly rather than using an online cart.
  • Some stores may want to display their products purely for informational purposes without allowing purchases directly through the site.
  • When a store is preparing for a launch or running a preview, the cart can be hidden to build anticipation while displaying the product catalog.

In Theme settings => Cart => Catalog mode, tick this checkbox to hide the cart:

When Hide Cart is enabled:

  • Mini cart icons will not be displayed on both desktop and mobile.
  • Quick add options will be hidden.
  • Add-to-cart button will not be shown on product pages, featured products, or quick view.

Step 2:  Click on "Theme Settings", or the gear icon on the left sidebar.
