Basket Shipping Estimate Display

Post by MaryP » Wed Mar 23, 2016 6:03 am

We're using the BasketShippingEstimate in the right sidebar along with the MiniBasket. The BasketShippingEstimate only appears after a customer has added a product to their cart and refreshed the page; nothing appears until they have something in their cart. (See hotsaucedepot.com/Wild-Turkey-Habanero-Hot-Sauce.aspx)

I know that the BasketShippingEstimate is taking into consideration the weight of what's in their cart, but is there a way to still have it display even when the cart is empty? OR can it display text in its place such as, "Add product to cart to estimate shipping charges."?

Thanks,
Mary

Hi Mary,

This is a bug that we recently for Gold R11. I think this should fix it -

In the \ConLib\BasketShippingEstimate.ascx file, find this line of code near the top:

Code: Select all

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="EstimateForm" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional">
to:

Code: Select all

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="EstimateForm" runat="server" UpdateMode="Always">
