    Hi,

    Our (mini) cart is heavy to load due to some discount and loyalty plugins. This also makes add to cart slow as it does the refresh thereafter. The only frontend update I would need when adding a product is the count to update not the fulll cart.

    I have been thinking of following options:
    – Cart loading:
    A) Only load the mini cart via ajax when someone click cart
    B) Turn off mini cart and direct to cart page
    – Cart Fragment to only delivery cart quantity

    Any suggestions or ideas of how to proceed? Maybe some config / setting excists for this?

    Cheers
    Peter

    Hello, Peter,

    We recommend that you disable the following option: xstore options -> speed optimization -> Always load “wc-cart-fragments.”
