Add to cart puts nothing in cart

I am having a problem with vibratingIron.com.

If you add an item to cart, the message returned is not the cart page, but a message saying that the cart is empty. Example video: screencast.com/t/FUMrFfDyxbM

Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks for responding!

I tried clearing all the cache and ran this through debug mode. I still had the problem.

After playing around for a bit, I noticed I had an empty step in my Checkout Workflow. I added a new step ans some processes and it worked fine. The problem was an empty step, but now have a new problem: How do I remove steps? There is an " add step", but no "remove step" How do I do this?

Thanks as always for your help.

i have the same problem, i have followed the steps above and the error message i get is:

Limit reached. You can't add the product: 2.5kW
The cart is empty

What is the solution?

i have added a step and it worked.... i checked the version andi get the message: You have the latest stable version : 1.5.4

So where do i get the version that works?

i have checked and there is no limits set at all... and the quantity for products are all unlimited...

I am also having this problem. I checked version, shut off joomla cach, all products are unlimited, no limit to number of products in cart.
I get the message:
Limit reached. You can't add the product:
The cart is empty

But the behaviour is variable, sometimes I can go to checkout, others I get the message, and sometimes I get the message and it actually removes the objects from the cart. Hope we find a solution.



Thanks for a great cart!

I am having the same problem and tearing my hair out... I have to go out for some fresh air before a break something. I have searched all over this and followed the instructions but it doesnt matter what I do I cant get anything with variants (essential) into the cart.

development site is at www.j15.mickturns.com/index.php/micks-products-hika

choose options has stopped working and just tries to add stuff to the cart and fails.

help...

Hmmm.. well in the "Maximum number of items in the cart" it says.. "Only in commercial versions of HikaShop " so I assume that I could not have screwed that up!

Ensured that the products have the default quantities (Unlimited, 0, unlimited) and I click on "Choose option" - it adds the product to the cart with no options (characteristics). That is no good ... The only products for sale are those with options.

Perhaps I screwed it up trying to do postage by weight -- removed all weights (worry about postage later) tedious to do with lots of similar products.. isn't there an easier way to bulk update? Still "Choose option" adds product to cart with no ability to choose an option.

Ok, I unpublished everything and added a two test products making no changes whatsoever to the defaults -- just a title -- button is just "add to cart" as one would expect. So I added a characteristic with two values only adding titles making no other changes. Now buttons have changed to "choose options" clicking on which just adds an item to the cart with no ability to choose options... help.

Happy to give you back end access if you set up an account I will elevate your privileges (do you need to be superuser or just admin?)...

Thanks but the apostrophy (Mick's) was not in the alias and I have removed it from the title (see attached screen shot) -- still exhibiting the same behavour. Philip

was: Product SEF name -- Mick's products

Apostrophy removed even though it is correct use of an apostrophy!

Magic... thank you so much. Pleased that it wasn't entirly my stupidity.. now seems to work and I can continue experimenting with Hika Shop and try to understand the postage stuff (pity you dont have a UK royal Mail option!).

Kind Regards

Philip
