hello,

i use the following template demo.gavick.com/joomla15/nov2010/index.php

there is a module position with name "cart" on this template but it can only be used with K2 and VM.

i use the latest version o essential version, when i use the module position for the hikashop mini cart it doesnt work properly.

here is the code in the template that i have to change

<?php if($this->countModules('cart')) : ?>
    <div id="gk-cart-btn">
        <h2><?php echo JText::_('GK_SHOP_CART'); ?></h2>
        <div id="gk-items">[ <strong>...</strong> ] <?php echo JText::_('GK_ITEMS'); ?></div>
        <a href="index.php?page=checkout.index&amp;option=com_virtuemart&amp;Itemid=178&amp;redirected=1&amp;Itemid=9999" class="button"><?php echo JText::_('GK_GO_TO_CHECKOUT'); ?></a>
    </div>
    <div id="gk-cart">
        <jdoc:include type="modules" name="cart" style="none" />
    </div>
    <?php endif; ?>



what i have to do have in that position with the same style the Hikashop mini cart module?


i am trying to do something like the code below this but i cant get the virable for the hikashop items
<?php if($this->countModules('cart')) : ?>
    <div id="gk-cart-btn">
        <h2><?php echo JText::_('GK_SHOP_CART'); ?></h2>
        <div id="gk-items">[ <strong>...</strong> ] <?php echo JText::sprintf('TOTAL_IN_CART_X'); ?></div>
        <a href="index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=checkout&Itemid=180" class="button"><?php echo JText::_('GK_GO_TO_CHECKOUT'); ?></a>
    </div>
    <div id="gk-cart">
        <jdoc:include type="modules" name="cart" style="none" />
    </div>
    <?php endif; ?>

What code do you have for VM for the <strong>...</strong> (the number of items) ?

In HikaShop, the number of items is calculated during the display of the module.

What I would do is just keep the code below in your template:
<div id="gk-cart">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="cart" style="none" />
</div>

and then modify the HTML code of the file cart of the view product in order to look like the VM one of that template.

i try that but it doesnt works propably is a template issue.


in the code for numbers of items is " echo JText::_('GK_ITEMS'); " i try to replace it with " JText::sprintf('TOTAL_IN_CART_X')" , but no luck.

Of course. The number of items is calculated during the display of the module.
JText::sprintf('TOTAL_IN_CART_X') just displays a translation string. If you don't feed the number of items variable to it, it won't work and for that you have to load the whole cart and process it. That's why I said that the other solution should be easier.

Without the template on our end, we can't test anything so we can't provide any precise solution but just give guidelines.

I don't want to hijack a discussion but my question is pertinent I believe to the current issue. I am creating a new template to use with hikashop. I have a bar at the top of the page where I would like to simply indicate the number of items the user has in their cart (among other information). I'd like to avoid using a module, and just insert a script into to index.php file of the template. Could you suggest how best to access this data if possible?

Thanks

You can do like that:
$class = hikashop::get('class.cart');
$rows = $class->get();
$qty = 0;
foreach($rows as $k => $row){
$qty += $row->cart_product_quantity;
}
echo $qty;

Thanks Nicolas for the solution. Just made a small change to avoid error msg when $rows is empty

$class = dacshop::get('class.cart');
$rows = $class->get();
$qty = 0;
if(!empty($rows)){
foreach($rows as $k => $row){
$qty += $row->cart_product_quantity;
}
}

Hi,

I would like to have these three things:

# of items
Total ammount
Checkout Button

E.g.

Items: 1
Total: $15
Checkout

I am trying hard from minicart but i cant get it. Is this possible weather from minicart or from custom code on template index.php?

thanks

Hi,

The mini cart already displays the number of items and the total.
That that be activated by turning on the "mini cart" option of the hikashop cart module.
For a link to the checkout, you can easily add it in the file "cart" of the view "product" via the menu Display->Views with some HTML like that:
<a href="URL_OF_YOUR_CHECKOUT">Checkout</a>

It shows you the full cart ?
Maybe you have some kind of caching issue ?
Could you make sure that the cache in the joomla configuration and in the joomla system cache plugin are both turned off.
Then,if that still doesn't change anything, could you give the URL of your page so that we can see that?

www.gotech.al/test this is the url. i can give you administrator access if you want.
(in the left you have the shop categories in order to add products to the cart. top-right is the cart)

No, I'm talking about a screenshot of the options of the cart module, not the front end of your shop.

i found out something that may help. When i click add to cart, i see the pop up asking pay now or turn to the shop. when i say pay now, the page is going to different url and during this process the page is refreshed and minicart is displayed correctly. when i say turn to the shop page is not refreshed and i see big cart.
