Change "You have nothing in your shopping cart" text

Go to solution Solved by tuanphan,

Website is far from finished but having some trouble with this custom code

https://parakeet-radish-lrza.squarespace.com/cart

My aim is to change the "you have nothing in your shopping cart" text to read "Your collection is currently empty!"

My cart is acting as a collection for clients to view their selected talent, almost like a wishlist

The code below is working, but not every time, then if you refresh the page, it works again. Also if you have people in your cart/collection and then remove them, it again reads "you have nothing in your shopping cart"

Any ideas?


<script>
window.onload = function(){
  if (document.body.classList.contains('show-cart-page')) {
    var pageTitle = document.querySelector('.sqs-shopping-cart-wrapper');
    pageTitle.innerText = "Collection";
    pageTitle.style.opacity = 1; !important }
  if (document.body.classList.contains('has-cart')) {
      var pageDescription = document.querySelector('.empty-message');
      pageDescription.innerText = "Your collection is currently empty!"
      pageDescription.style.opacity = 1;
    }
 };
</script>

@jackcavell You can use CSS to change text. Add to Home > Design > Custom CSS


.empty-message {
   visibility: hidden;
}
.empty-message:before {
   visibility: visible;
   content: "New Text Cart";
   font-size: 20px;
}

Hi! This worked great for a custom message, but does anyone know if a hyperlink can be inserted?

I'd like to link the customer to a product when they click on the text "gift boxes" in my cart below:

This could be achieved with some custom JavaScript instead of the CSS, but as the message would only ever been seen on the empty cart page, it may be better to promote your gift boxes using an announcement bar that will be seen on all pages.
