After installing Slide Cart, you can get up and running in a few simple clicks.

Certain themes already have a cart drawer / popup cart built in. If your store does you will want to disable it before enabling Slide Cart. An option to disable it is generally found in Theme Settings. Head to Online Store > Themes > Customize. 

![getting started 1](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/getting-started/getting-started-1.jpg)

From here check in Theme Settings for an option to disable it. Every theme is different - on the default theme it’s under “Add to cart notification”. Disable it and save your settings. If you can't find an option to disable it, simply choose "Cart type > Page" as your setting to disable the cart.

![getting started 1](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/getting-started/getting-started-2.jpg)

Now that we’ve cleared the floor for Slide Cart we can head to the app settings page and enable it via the toggle switch located in the header. This will activate the cart on your live store.

![getting started 1](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/getting-started/getting-started-3.jpg)

Optionally you can change the settings to match your theme better. If your store has a dark color scheme use “dark mode”. We also recommend setting the accent color to your theme’s primary color.

What are the Premium Features of Slide Cart?

Changing Slide Cart’s language is done in the settings page. Start by navigating to the language section and clicking the button to reveal the fields. 

![enable rewards](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/language/language-1.jpg) 

From here you can alter all the languages used in the cart. Remember to save your settings once complete.

How do I change Slide Cart’s language?

Announcements are only available on our premium plan. Once upgraded, adding announcements is easy. 

From the settings page scroll down to the Cart Announcements section. From here you will find a form where you can create announcements. You can create as many as you’d like.

![add announcement](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/announcements/announcements-1.jpg)

Once complete toggle the enabled checkbox and save your settings.

![add announcement](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/announcements/announcements-2.jpg)

If a cart has multiple announcements they will be displayed in a slider. You can reorder announcements using the drag handles in the table.

How do I make Cart Announcements?

Follow the steps below for uninstalling Slide Cart . 

Disable the app from the settings page:
![Disabling Slide Cart Image](//images.ctfassets.net/ola7x25rff97/29lnr7z6usA7N64WzMNFqP/9b6d9b13bd8144f397492e3cca03021d/file-lArOHCMNsH.png)

Delete the app. You can do this from the app's section in your Shopify Admin:

__Additional considerations__
- In case you added the fast install snippet, you might want to remove that as well from your "theme.liquid" file
- If you added the cart count data attributes, you might want to remove those as well from your "theme.liquid" or "header.liquid" file
- If you created any Shopify automatic discounts to go with Slide Cart, such as a free shipping code for the reward module, you might want to delete this discount so it does not show again in your store

If you need any help with this, please don't hesitate to reach out.

How do I uninstall Slide Cart?

Upselling items is only available on our premium plan. Once upgraded, adding upsell items is easy. 

From the setting page find the Basic Upsell section. Once found click the empty box or add product button.

![Add upsell item](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/upsell/upsell-1.jpg)

A new window will pop up where you can select the product you wish to upsell. Once selected click the add button on the bottom right corner.

![Add upsell item](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/upsell/upsell-2.jpg)

Repeat the process if you wish to add additional items (max of five). Once complete toggle the enable checkbox and save your settings.

![Add upsell item](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/upsell/upsell-3.jpg)

If a cart has multiple upsell items they will be displayed in a slider. You can reorder the items using the drag handles in the table.

How do I upsell items in my cart?

Cart Rewards is for premium users only. Once upgraded, set-up is easy.

From the settings page scroll down to the Rewards section. In this section you’ll find a multitude of options to set up rewards. Let’s go over each of the fields.

- **Minimum amount** is $ amount needed for the customer to unlock the award.
- **Pre-Unlock text** is the text displayed before they unlock the reward. This should be something motivational (Example: Spend $15 more and receive free shipping!)
- **Post-Unlock text**  is the text displayed once the customer has reached the minimum. If you’re using auto discounts you can say something like “Congrats free shipping unlocked”. If you're using coupon codes you can say something like “Free shipping unlocked! Use code FREESHIP at checkout”.
- **Change shipping text when reward active** Enable this field if you want to change the shipping row once the minimum is met (Example: “Calculated at checkout” > “Free”).
- **Shipping text once reward is met** this is where you place the replacement text.

Once you’ve edited your settings toggle the enable checkbox and save your settings.

![enable rewards](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/rewards/rewards-1.jpg)

**Important:**

You are required to manually create an automatic discount or coupon code to match your settings. We highly recommend using automatic discounts over coupon codes.

![enable rewards](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/rewards/rewards-2.jpg)

If you still need help getting set-up, just drop us an email with your Shopify domain to [hello@apphq.co](mailto:hello@apphq.co) - we'll be with you shortly!


How do I use Rewards?

If your theme's cart count is out of sync you will have to perform a code edit to fix it.

The edit is simple, add attribute `data-cart-count` to any html tag you want Slide Cart to populate with the cart count.

```<span data-cart-count>{{ cart.item_count }}</span>```

Not comfortable making code edits? Just drop us an email with your Shopify domain to [hello@apphq.co](mailto:hello@apphq.co) - we'll be with you shortly!

Why is my theme’s cart count wrong?

There are three reasons why an upsell item may not appear. 

1. The product is out of stock or unavailable. Verify that your product / variants are in stock and available for sale. 
2. The upsell product is already in your cart. An upsell item is only displayed when it’s not already in the user's cart. 
3. The product's handle has changed. The handle is a part of the url (example: mystore.com/products/<handle here>). If this is the case, delete and re-add the upsell product **(in the app not the actual product)**.

Why is my upsell item not appearing?

</div>

Shopify loads plugin scripts after everything else on the page. If your store uses a lot of plugins and images it can really slow things down for Slide Cart. You can dramatically speed up Slide Cart by manually pasting the “fast install” code below your <body> tag.

From the settings page copy the snippet to your clipboard.

![fast mode snippet](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/fast-mode/fast-mode-1.jpg)

Start by navigating to Online Store > Themes > Edit Code

![fast mode snippet](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/fast-mode/fast-mode-2.jpg)

From here open the layout/theme.liquid file and paste the snippet just below your `<body>` opening tag. Remember to save your changes.

![fast mode snippet](https://cdn.apphq.co/apphq/slidecart/docs/fast-mode/fast-mode-3-alt.jpg)

If you still need help getting set-up, just drop us an email with your Shopify domain to [hello@apphq.co](mailto:hello@apphq.co) - we'll be with you shortly!

Adding the fast install snippet

Slide Cart checks for the variable `window.SLIDECART_FORMAT`. If it doesn’t find it, Slide Cart will fallback to its own format. If you’d like Slide Cart to use your money_format perform a fast install. Alternatively you can paste the snippet below in your `<head>`. 

```<script>window.SLIDECART_FORMAT='{{shop.money_format}}';</script>``` 

If you still need help getting set-up, just drop us an email with your Shopify domain to [hello@apphq.co](mailto:hello@apphq.co) - we'll be with you shortly!

Why is Slide Cart not using my money format?

Slide Cart works with most currency converters once you install the fast install snippet. This snippet provides Slide Cart with your store's money_format and makes it far more likely to work with converter apps. You can find detailed instructions on installing this snippet [here](https://apphq.co/documentation/why-is-slide-cart-loading-slow).

If your converter is still not working or you need help installing the snippet, don't hesitate to [reach out.](https://apphq.co/support).

Using Slide Cart with Also Bought

A more automated way to use Slide Cart with Weglot is currently being worked on. In the Weglot integration, it is possible using a custom script.

__Pre-requisites:__

1. Set up Weglot on your store with the desired languages.

2. Make sure you've installed the fast-install snippet. Detailed instructions can be found [here](https://apphq.co/documentation/why-is-slide-cart-loading-slow).

__Step 1: Determine the two-letter language code.__

Before we add the custom script we must figure out the language code(s). A detailed list can be found [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes). For example if I was translating to German the code would be "de".

____Step 2: Add the custom snippet__

Once you've determined the code copy and paste the snippet below into your theme.liquid file, just below the closing `<body>` tag.

    <script>
      window.SLIDECART_OPENED = function() {    
        var lang = document.querySelector('html').getAttribute('lang').toLowerCase()

        if (lang == "nl") {
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.rewards_pre = "Spend *{{ amount }}* more for 10% off"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.rewards_post = "10% off activated!"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.rewards_amount = "100.00"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.rewards_shipping_text = "FREE"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.title_text = "Cart"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.note_text = "Add an optional note"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.note_placeholder_text = "Special instructions"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.discounts_label_text = "Discounts"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.shipping_label_text = "Shipping"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.shipping_value_text = "FREE"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.subtotal_label_text = "Subtotal"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.checkout_text = "Checkout"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.upsell_add_text = "Add"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.upsell_add_long_text = "Add to cart"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.upsell_unavailable_text = "Unavailable"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.empty_text = "Your cart is empty."
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.custom_html_footer = ""
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.custom_html_header = ""
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.custom_html_checkout = ""
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.custom_html_empty = ""
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.continue_shopping_text = "Or continue shopping"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.discount_box_label = "Discount code"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.discount_box_error_text = "Invalid discount code"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.discount_box_button_text = "Apply"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.subscription_text = "Subscription"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.checkbox_text = "I agree to the terms of service."
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.checkbox_note_text = "TOS accepted"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.vendor_key_text = "Vendor"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.product_type_key_text = "Product type"
          window.SLIDECART_STATE().settings.aupsell_heading = "Recommended Products"
        }
      }
    </script>

____Step 3: Add your translations__

Once the snippet is pasted in, change the language code inside of the snippet on line 5.

For example, If I was translating to spanish I would change `if (lang == "nl") {` to `if (lang == "es") {`

Afterwards translate all of the text within the quotes below and hit save.

____Step 4: Test your store__

Everything should be working at this point, give your store a test. If anything goes wrong please contact us and we'll help you get setup.

Awesome app and one of the best customer support you'll ever experience from Robert. If you need a better cart for your online store, this is the app. Very easy to use, integrate and awesome design. If you have any questions or request, Robert is very accommodating and replies very fast. Definitely, one of the best apps in Shopify.

The only Shopify app you need! Slide Cart has revolutionized my store making the user buying experiences seamless. Robert was on hand throughout the whole process making the integration easy. Cannot recommend this app enough!!

This is the App you want. I tried every single cart app in the Shopify store. Usually there is always something that doesn't work or the layout just looks cheap. This one was my last option and I just hit the jackpot with it. The App is working fast, the layout is great, it doesn't come with any unnecessary features that slow down your shop. It just works more that great. Easy to use, all important features like cross-selling and upselling modules. It also allows you to put those quick checkout buttons inside the cart so customer can checkout even quicker. Thank you so much.
