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.

Next, open your desired menu item, add the class name “ec-slide-cart-class”, and click Save Menu.

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.
