Step 1: Activate the Sliding Cart Addon

• Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
• Go to EasyCommerce > Addons.
• Find the Sliding Cart addon and click “Activate”.
• EasyCommerce will automatically download, install, and activate the addon for your store.

Step 2: Choose How You Want to Trigger the Slide Cart

• Decide how you want users to access the Slide Cart:
  - Create a dedicated page, or
  - Add a button, text link, or icon anywhere on your site where you'd like to trigger the slide cart.

Step 3: Add the Sliding Cart Class

Wherever you want the slide cart to be triggered, add the following CSS class:
class="ec-slide-cart-class"

This could be a button, link, or icon in your theme or page builder.

⚠️ Do not modify the class name.

This class can be added to any element in your theme or page builder - such as a button, text, or icon.

Here we added the class="ec-slide-cart-class" on the page

Step 4: Enable Sliding Cart on Click

Once the `ec-slide-cart-class` is added, clicking that element will automatically open the sliding cart, allowing users to view and manage their items instantly.

Once connected and configured, the sliding cart becomes a powerful addition to your store keeping users engaged, streamlining their journey to checkout, and ultimately increasing sales.
