How to Add the Shopping Cart Icon to Your PhotoBiz Website

Overview

The Shopping Cart icon gives customers a quick way to view their cart and continue the checkout process on your PhotoBiz website. Customers can add purchases through a Products Block, Services Block, or Scheduler Block, then use the Shopping Cart to return to the items or services they have selected.

ECommerce is automatically enabled on your PhotoBiz Website Package once you have connected a merchant and have an active ECommerce Product, ECommerce Service, or Scheduler Service available for purchase.

This guide walks you through adding the Shopping Cart to your website, choosing where it appears, and customizing how it displays with your Site Links.

STEP ONE

Log in to your PhotoBiz account and click WEBSITE in the left-side menu.

This opens the Website Builder, where you can manage your website pages, navigation, design, and other website settings.

STEP TWO

Locate SITE LINKS / ICONS in the left-side panel of the Website Builder. You will find it below your website pages and above your footer settings.

Click SITE LINKS / ICONS to open its settings in the right-side panel.

STEP THREE

Click the SEARCH/CART tab in the right-side panel.

Locate the Shopping Cart settings and choose where you want the Shopping Cart to appear on your website. You can display it with your Social Media Icons or with your Site Links.

If you display the Shopping Cart with your Site Links, you can also choose its display style and customize its appearance.

FINAL STEP

Choose the Shopping Cart display option you want to use and customize the available settings for that option.

Click Save Changes to apply your settings to your website. Your changes take effect automatically, so there is no separate publish step.

Visitors can now use the Shopping Cart icon or link to view items and services they have added to their cart and continue through checkout.

Shopping Cart Display Options

If you display the Shopping Cart with your Site Links, you can choose from four display styles:

  • Button — Displays a button that says View Cart. You can customize the button text and button color.
  • Icon Only — Displays only the shopping cart icon. You can customize the icon color and icon border color.
  • Text and Icon — Displays the shopping cart icon with View Cart next to it. You can customize the icon color, icon border color, and text color.
  • Text Only — Displays View Cart without an icon. You can customize the text color.

If you display the Shopping Cart with your Social Media Icons, the shopping cart appears as an icon alongside the other icons in that area of your website.

How the Shopping Cart Works

The Shopping Cart is part of the checkout process for purchases made through your PhotoBiz website.

Customers can add items or services to their cart from:

  • Products Block — Active ECommerce Products
  • Services Block — Active ECommerce Services
  • Scheduler Block — Active Scheduler Services

After a customer adds something to the cart, they can use the Shopping Cart icon or link to return to their cart, review their selections, and continue through checkout.

The Shopping Cart is especially helpful when customers continue browsing your website after adding something to their cart because they do not need to return to the original block to access their order.

When ECommerce Becomes Available

You do not need to manually enable a separate ECommerce feature for your PhotoBiz Website Package.

ECommerce becomes available automatically after you:

  • Connect a merchant to your PhotoBiz account.
  • Have an active ECommerce Product, ECommerce Service, or Scheduler Service available for purchase.

You can then use the appropriate Website Builder block to make those products or services available to customers on your website.

Client Galleries Carts Are Separate

The Shopping Cart added through SITE LINKS / ICONS does not display products or images that customers add to a Client Galleries cart.

Client Galleries has its own shopping cart and checkout process. Items added while shopping in a Client Galleries event remain in that gallery's cart and do not appear in the Shopping Cart on your main PhotoBiz website.

Helpful Notes 

  • The Shopping Cart can appear with either your Social Media Icons or your Site Links.
  • Displaying the cart with your Site Links gives you additional options for its style, text, colors, and borders.
  • The exact location of the Shopping Cart on your website depends on your website design and the display location you choose.
  • Customers can use the Shopping Cart to return to their current website cart without finding the Products Block, Services Block, or Scheduler Block where they originally added the purchase.
  • Saving your changes automatically updates your website. There is no separate publish button.
