features how-to for cart & checkout?

dear team, i was wondering how to accomplish the following

cart module:
1. "show title" is YES but its not showing (maybe because "mini cart" is YES?)
2. hide cart module if empty

checkout:
i managed to hide cart on checkout (not an easy task, but it worked)
created 2 menus:
- hikashop > product
- hikashop > checkout (this info was missing in mohameds description: www.hikashop.com/forum/checkout/863039-n...-be-easy.html#129157 )
- in "Hikashop->System->Configuration->'Checkout'"
used the "Force a menu on the checkout" option to one of your menu (= in my case "checkout")
- in the "Module Assignment" of my cart module
set option to "Only on the pages selected"
un-checked the menu that your have set through the "Force a menu on the checkout" option (= in my case "checkout")

but now in the adress bar i get the following URLs:
myshop.com/checkout/checkout/
myshop.com/checkout/checkout/task-step/step-0...x

1. is it possible to get rid of the double "checkout"?
2. is it possible to add custom text for "task-step" and "step-0 ... x"?

best regards

Hi,

1. The title should be displayed, don't you have a css rules which is hiding the title ?
2. This will require some JavaScript, check if the element is empty via javascript and hide the parent.

1. By changing the menu name, you can avoid to have it twice. Or by using sef component.
2. This will require modifications in the controllers, etc so core file. It's not recommended.

thanks for the quick reply!

1. no there is no such css rule and also no template override. here is the module code, as you can see no title in there:

<div id="hikashop_cart_module" class="hikashop_cart_module">
<div class="hikashop_cart" id="hikashop_cart">
				<a href="/bestellvorgang/checkout" class="hikashop_small_cart_checkout_link">
				<span class="hikashop_small_cart_total_title">3 Artikel für 
								<span class="hikashop_product_price_full">
												<span class="hikashop_product_price hikashop_product_price_0">44,70 €</span>
								 </span>
				</span>
				</a>			
				<a href="#" onclick="window.location='/online-shop/product/cleancart?return_url='+window.btoa(window.location); return false;" class="hikashop_small_cart_clean_link">
								<img border="0" alt="clean cart" src="/media/com_hikashop/images/delete2.png">
				</a>
				<input type="submit" onclick="var field=document.getElementById('hikashop_product_quantity_field_3');window.location='/bestellvorgang/checkout';return false;" value="Zur Kasse" name="checkout" class="btn button hikashop_cart_input_button"></div>
<div class="clear_both"></div>
</div>

hikashopModifyQuantity('X',1,1,'hikashop_product_form_X_hikashop_category_information_menu_169','cart',0);

hi, sorry i forgot: HikaShop Essential: 2.3.1 on J! 3.2.3

1. in joomla config "show title" is set to yes and i use no override

2. i will try to explain: in order to hide the empty cart module, you suggested to check via javascript if the element is empty and then hide the parent... but, the element is not empty, it contains the text "cart is empty":

<div id="hikashop_cart_module" class="hikashop_cart_module">
     <div class="hikashop_cart" id="hikashop_cart">Cart is empty </div>
     <div class="clear_both"></div>
</div>

any news on this?

great stuff nicolas! thank you!

...but still no title showing on cart module...

i even just created a custom module style (in modules.php) and selected this in "cart module" > "advanced" > "module style"
...still no luck...

i know, i am using joomla for 10 years now, the same site has other modules as well, all inserted to the same position with the same procedure. maybe i am missing something??? i dont know. please have a look:

in index.php:
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="moduleRechts" style="" />

in modules.php:
function modChrome_warenkorb($module, &$params, &$attribs) { ?>
<h3>Title: <?php echo JText::_( $module->title ); ?></h3>
<?php echo $module->content; ?>
<?php
}

see screenshots position.PNG & module-style.PNG

thats the point!
i dont even see the h3 tags, thats why i added for test <h3>Title: ... in my code.
so its not the translation or jtext::...

if i remove the module style in advanced or set it to default / inherited it still shows up the same...
it is not a cache problem. joomla caching is disabled and i cleared browser caching several times.
today i even work from homeoffice on a different pc...

it is also not 2 styles with similar names, as "warenkorb" is present only once...

i tried again to make chrome changes to other modules, different styles etc. it all works!!!
all except the hikashop cart module...

i just read my posts in this thread from the beginning, my very first question was if this could happen due to the fact that i am using the "mini cart" but as nobody answered specifically on this i assumed the answer would be "no". so again: could it be that "mini cart" is the reason?

FYI: i just switched from mini-cart to normal view and still no h3 visible...

and:
in modules/mod_hikashop_cart/mod_hikashop_cart.php
line49
echo $html seems not to contain the title...

friendly bump...
any news here?

Hi,

It's normal to not have the title in the $html of the cart module. It's no handled by HikaShop.
We just display the content inside the module, not the whole module and it's title.

That really seems to be a Joomla / template issue than a HikaShop one.

ok.
as you can see in #160722 all i am doing is right.
nicolas wrote he cant see any mistake...

any way i could provide you with more information in order to debug this?

all other modules work (custom and not) the same way, all get the styling i define in modules.php ...
all except the hikashop cart (no matter if minicart or not)...

Do you tried to create a new cart module in order to see if it's working for a new one, it's maybe the entry in the configuration which is wrong.

Is you title a simple title ? Or there is specific characters inside ?

just created a new cart module... still no title

yes, it is a simple title without special characters...

i tried also other hika modules (for example "hika shop content module"... same problem, no title showing up at all, even if i select in "module manager" > "advanced" > "module style" : any style through all styles of my template... tried them all through, even those custom ones in joomla, even "inherited"...

with other joomla modules (for example "who's online"), title shows up when i select the appropriate style in "module style" out of my template...

i even changed the code in modules.php from
<h3><?php echo JText::_( $module->title ); ?></h3>
<?php echo $module->content; ?>

to

<h3><?php echo $module->title; ?></h3>
<?php echo $module->content; ?>

(removed JText::_)

still, it doesnt work. it looks like if hikashop modules totally ignore the setting in "module manager" > "advanced" > "module style" !!!

friendly bump?

FYI:
i installed hikashop 2.3.1 on a new site we are building, this one with blank template and no modules or overrides so far... if i make all configurations as i need, and enable the hikashop cart module, again it shows no TITLE!
also i just updated to 2.3.2, same error, no title displayed...

did you try to reproduce this?
