Customize your empty cart
You can design the cart that shoppers see before they add a product. Click the Empty cart tab at the top of the left panel, then click Empty cart general.
A friendly empty cart keeps shoppers browsing. For example: "Your cart is empty" with a Continue shopping button. Let's set it up.
Open the empty cart
- In your Shopify admin, open Adoric Cart, then click your cart in the Carts list.
- At the top of the left panel, click the Empty cart tab.
- Click Empty cart general.
The live preview now shows the empty cart.
Choose the icon
- Turn on the Icon toggle.
- Click one of the 8 icons, or click Upload custom icon to use your own.
- Change the icon's Color and Size. The default size is 64.
Write the title and subtitle
- Title: The main message. The default is "Your cart is empty."
- Subtitle: A short line under the title. The default is "All cart items appear here."
Use the text toolbar to change the size and color, make the text bold, italic, or underlined, or add an emoji.
Set up the button
- Turn on the Button toggle.
- Enter the button text. The default is "Continue shopping."
- Under Action, choose what the button does. The default is Close cart drawer.
- Under Style, choose Solid or Outline, then change the Background, Border, and Roundness.
You can also show recommended products in the empty cart. Under Upsell, turn on Product upsell or Side product upsell.
Check the result
Look at the live preview on the right of the cart editor. It shows your empty cart.
When you're happy with it, click Save in the top bar. To show the cart to shoppers, turn on the Cart status switch in the top bar, so the cart shows Active.
