Multi Carts don't work from front-end

Multi Carts don't work from front-end was created by csymmonds
Experimenting with multi-carts, interesting concept, but creating a second cart from the front-end doesn't work. A message is displayed indicating the cart will be visible when products are added, but any newly added items go to the original cart.
The wishlists feature suffers from the same flaw. It works if you create new cart / wishlist from the back-end, but customers can't create more than one wishlist or cart.

Hi,
In the file: "yourSite\administrator\component\com_hikashop\classes\cart.php" in the function "loadCart()" is the code:
Commented ? If yes, just uncomment it and dont forget the "}" too.

It isn't commented.
The described functionality doesn't work on your demo site either.

I'm having the exact same problem. I thought, I just didn't get how to use the MultiCart/Wishlist feature, but reading the preceding posts I think this is a bug.
I can confirm that this isn't working on your demo page, either. (at least for Google Chrome 22.0.1229.79 - Windows 7)
In addition, this if statement you referred to:

As Xavier said, this has been corrected on our end and will be available in next version of HikaShop.
You can try the beta already here:
www.hikashop.com/en/forum/2-general-talk...ikashop-20-beta.html
The demo website doesn't have yet HikaShop 2.0 since it is still a beta, so it's normal that it doesn't work there.

In that case, I misunderstood Xavier, sorry. I thought by "working on our end" he meant "should be working on yours, as well.
Thanks for your reply, I'm looking forward to Ver2!

Hi,
I needed this working by tomorrow as it was presented to my client in a previous version ( we upgraded last week )
After some hour of testing, I did the following:
1. Add the given code line to the loadCart() method of the cart class: (and the closing bracket)
2. Around line 74 of the cart controller, I changed:
From:
To:
This makes the userstate var be 1 until something else resets it to 0. This causes the loadCart() method to not load any cart.
3. In the same Cart controller file, in the addtocart() method, around line 130, there is a line for resetting the userState var to 0, but it is set after the class is instanced, so the class creates another new cart.
The only way to make it stop was by moving line 136 to line 118, to set the userState before the new call to the cart class. (line numbers may vary)
Like this-> screencast.com/t/JrgUlMNb3
It seems to be working for me with those mods. -> screencast.com/t/M5EuQ7Pp6
The only remaining broken thing is that it should mark the current cart as active...

Now, after installing HikaShop 2.0, I still couldn't get MultiCarts working properly.
Firstly, I got an error when trying to access "Show the carts" from the customer account page:
Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in /var/www/components/com_hikashop/views/cart/view.html.php on line 248 (and 49 respectively)
I resolved this by commenting out the according lines in the view, since I don't intend to use wishlists anyway. Otherwise, this would probably pose another problem.
Secondly, HikaShop doesn't seem to load the current cart after user login. This might actually be a feature rather than a bug - maybe you don't want this stuff back anyway. However, I need to rely on the loaded cart having the same contents as the cart marked current in the MySQL table to manipulate these contents with ajax requests. I managed to write a module, that does this loading on login for me, but I fear that this will run into other problems sooner or later...1)
TL;DR: This script loads the last modified cart, makes it current and redirects to the index.php of your page

Even though the most recently edited cart is now marked as current on login, you can still just delete the current cart and no cart will be marked current again. If you can just tell me where HikaShop decides which of the remaining carts to load (but not mark current), I could adjust that in my source code.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that I also seem to be unable to clear the cart from the HikaShop cart module ( X linking to index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=product&task=cleancart&Itemid=...)

Phew! With the help of vast amounts of coffee, I finally got my stuff working.
For my product/listing_table view I used to look up the current cart in the MySQL database to display the respective quantities from the cart next to each product. Since the actually loaded carts on the front end sometimes don't (or better: hardly ever) correlate to the carts marked current in the MySQL table, this would not work anymore.
By digging around in the HikaShop source, I found out that I could use
to retrieve the cart id of the currently loaded cart (which, in retrospective, I should have done from the beginning anyway).
This does, however, neither solve the issue
- that the current cart and the actually loaded cart may not be the same,
- that, on login, a new (empty) cart is created instead of the last one being loaded (I'm still relying on my module from above),
- nor that I'm still unable to clear a cart from the cart module (Which might be a good thing depending on your perspective - in that case, however, the clear (X) button shouldn't be displayed in the first place)

Carts are also associated to session IDs. Also, if you are logging in, and if Hikashop doesn't auto load the cart, you shouldn't expect to find the correct cart ID in the session var.
Why don't you just put a cookie with the user's last cart ID and get the ID from there after login?
By using the cart helper class they put as an example in the documentation?

If I did that and the user deleted the currently loaded cart, another cart would be loaded by HikaShop rendering my cookie obsolete.Why don't you just put a cookie with the user's last cart ID and get the ID from there after login?
