Best Regards, Scott")* Hi, This button should mean that the customer have the possibility to convert the cart into a wishlist if he wants. Should we translate this sentence like "Convert cart to wishlist" ? If you don't see the "Proceed to checkout" button that maybe because you don't have the latest version of the view "cart / showcart". Please check that you have the following code in that view: Code: if($cart_type == 'cart' && $this->params->get('show_cart_proceed',1)) echo $this->cart->displayButton(JText::_('PROCEED_TO_CHECKOUT'),'checkout',$this->params,$url_checkout,'window.location=\''.$url_checkout.'\';return false;'); If it is not present, you can directly add it.

Best Regards, Scott")* Hello Xavier, Thank you for your reply, but I need some coaching: If you don't see the "Proceed to checkout" button that maybe because you don't have the latest version of the view "cart / showcart". Please check that you have the following code in that view: if($cart_type == 'cart' && $this->params->get('show_cart_proceed',1)) echo $this->cart->displayButton(JText::_('PROCEED_TO_CHECKOUT'),'checkout',$this->params,$url_checkout,'window.location=\''.$url_checkout.'\';return false;'); This one is a bit beyond my current level of knowledge. How would I determine if the code is there and if not where would I add the code? I'm getting familiar with Firebug and have made many changes to the site, but changing something that I can find is different from looking for something that may not be there and then adding it.

Best Regards, Scott")* Hello, In cart/showcart the code is there on line 609 in my case. What to do with it I don't understand. Part of the problem may have been that I had not published the Hikashop cart module. If I do publish it and then assign the cart module to all pages (Menu Assignment - All Pages) I can see the "Proceed to Checkout" button, but of course the cart appears at the bottom of all pages - which is not what I want. I have experimented with other settings, but to no avail. What do you suggest?
