Title: save cart plugin
Post by: guardiano78 on November 23, 2019, 13:59:23 PM
Hello,

I have some problems with user management of the cart.
I try to explain my needs.

By now a single user can connect to the ecommerce site from his smartphones, tablets and PCs.
What I need is a plugin that saves the user's cart and that if he changes device, he always finds his cart without having to start all over again.

I give a practical example:
- I log in to the site via smartphone, tablet and PC using a single account.
- from the tablet I put 2 products in the cart;
- if I enter the cart on the PC, I must see the two products previously entered; from the pc I add another product
- on the smartphone, I enter the cart and have to see all 3 products previously entered
- from the smartphone gate 2 products from the cart and only one remains;
- I go back to the tablet and go to the cart, so I have to see the only product left.

In practice I need a plugin that can save only one cart per user account.
a bit like the amazon cart for example.

Can you tell me if it exists? that both freeware and paid?
If you can't write the name or link in the forum, you can send me a private message.
Thank you in advance for any possible help.
Thanks.

The cart is per user account. Perhaps you have set a too long Joomla session time value ?

I use 1 hour maximum.
In this case, if you reconnect 1 hour later with another device. You should see the changes.
