Cart Items Info

The cart_items_info tag works similar to the channel entries module, and is intended to print out the contents of the customer's cart. This tag outputs all details related to the contents of the cart, item details, subtotals, totals, shipping and tax figures (if available). This tag is usually a key component of a cart based site. This tag is what you will use to provide visitors an overview of what is in their cart, and generally what you will use as the base to access tools to edit & update products and quantities, and remove items from the cart.

A video tutorial on this tag is available..

Parameters

In addition to the parameters below, you may also use parameters found in Global Number Formatting.

orderby

Orders the output. You can order by: title, quantity, entry_id, row_id, price, or item_options:your_option_name, channel_id, your_custom_field_name. CartThrob uses a data filter to order items, so you'll often find that if you can output a variable using the cart_items_info tag, you'll also be able to orderby that variable.

orderby="title"
sort

Sets the sort order

sort="asc"
number_format

This will override default formatting to totals, subtotals, etc.

number_format="yes"
limit

Limits the number of items shown

limit="1"
offset

Handy if you want to paginate or otherwise offset the items returned.

offset="10"
entry_id

This parameter pulls up data for one (or more) specific items. Separate multiple entry_ids with a pipe "|" character.

entry_id="456|455|454"
plan_id

This parameter pulls up data for one (or more) subscription plans. Separate multiple plan_ids with a pipe "|" character.

plan_id="456|455|454"
row_id

This parameter pulls up data for one (or more) specific items. Separate multiple row_ids with a pipe "|" character. This is useful for pulling up information about specific items in the cart, especially when you may have one or more items with the same entry ID in multiple configurations.

row_id="456|455|454"
search:field_name

Note: This feature is still under development, pending user feedback.

This parameter allows you to filter which cart items are shown in this loop.

Contains matching

//items whose product tag contain the word
search:product_tag="pickles"

//items whose product tag contains one of the words
search:product_tag="pickles|shoes"

//items whose product tag does not contain one of the words
search:product_tag="not pickles|shoes"

//items whose product tag contains all of the words
search:product_tag="pickles&&shoes"

//items whose product tag contains none of the words
search:product_tag="not pickles&&shoes"

Exact matching

//items whose product tag is exactly the word
search:product_tag="=pickles"

//items whose product tag is exactly one of the words
search:product_tag="=pickles|shoes"

//items whose product tag is exactly neither of the words
search:product_tag="=not pickles|shoes"

Numeric comparisons

//items whose price is less than 10
search:price_numeric="<10"

//items whose price is greater than or equal 10
search:price_numeric=">=20"
