Configuring the Add to Cart Widget
Once you have added the Add to Cart widget, click it to activate the Property Panel where you can customize its Styles, Content, and Settings according to your preferences.
To configure the Add to Cart widget:
- Go to Styles to modify the widget styling features:
- Select the widget mode from the Mode drop-down list to provide users with information or functionality based on the product's current state. The following modes are available:
- Normal: Indicates the static state of the widget, referring to the state of the widget when it is not affected by any interaction.
- Loading: Indicates that it is currently processing or loading data. This often includes animations or indicators to show the loading state.
- Out of Stock: Alerts customers that the product is unavailable and cannot be purchased until it is restocked or becomes available again, either temporarily or permanently.
- Success: Indicates that a particular action or operation has been completed successfully. It is often used to provide positive feedback to the customer after they have taken a desired action.
Note: If the Out of Stock mode is selected, the public mode displays the out-of-stock disabled button based on the Button widget customizations. You can style each state with different colors or symbols to signify their status.
- Configure the principal styling features (see Global Styles).
2. Go to Content to modify the widget content:
