How to setup express checkout in the cart
This guide will walk you through the steps to modify your Shopify theme's code to ensure that Shopify Accelerated Checkout buttons work seamlessly in CornerCart. By enabling this feature, you can improve the overall shopping experience for your customers and potentially increase your sales.
Before proceeding, we recommend familiarizing yourself with Shopify's official documentation on how to edit your theme code. This will help you navigate the code editor smoothly. In addition, the documentation will highlight some of the risks of editing theme code.
Step 1: Access your theme code
- Go to the Shopify admin portal and log in.
- From the Shopify admin, go to "Online Store" > "Themes."
- Choose the theme you want to add express checkout buttons to.
- Select "Edit code" from the dropdown menu.
Step 2: Add custom liquid file
- Find the folder named sections
- Click on Add a new section
- Add new section and name it as corner-express-checkout
- Then add the below code to the liquid file and Save:
`{% comment %} snippet added by CornerCart team for express checkout buttons{% endcomment %}
{% if additional_checkout_buttons %}
<div style="display:none" id="corner-dynamic-checkout-cart-container">
{{content_for_additional_checkout_buttons}}
</div>
{% endif %}`
`{% schema %}
{
"name": "corner-express-checkout",
"tag": "section",
"class": "section",
}
{% endschema %}`
Step 3: Add new liquid file to theme
- Open theme.liquid and find the <body> tag
- Place the code snippet: {% section 'corner-express-checkout' %} just after the open <body> tag.
- Save your changes.
Step 4: Enable Express Checkout in CornerCart
The final step is to activate the express checkout in CornerCart. By turning on this setting after inserting the code snippets provided earlier, CornerCart will be instructed to display the buttons for your cart.
- Go to the CornerCart app > Cart Drawer settings.
- Go to Cart Features Section.
- Enable "Express Checkouts" .
- Don't forget to save your changes.
