How do the Cart Summary Notification popups work in the ToastiBar app?

Cart Summary Notification Popups bring energy and credibility to your website by displaying real-time notifications of products added to carts. These popups provide a clear summary of cart activity within a specific timeframe, offering valuable insights into recent interactions and helping visitors make informed decisions.

By showcasing active engagement, these popups build customer trust, encourage actions like “add to cart” and purchase, and enhance your website’s credibility. They reassure visitors, giving them the confidence to complete their purchases.

Status

To display the Cart Summary Notification popups on your website, ensure that the ToastiBar App status and the Cart Summary Notification status are enabled. These popups provide visitors/customers with a quick overview of the summary of the items added to the cart on the website, enhancing their shopping experience.

If you wish to disable these popups for specific devices, simply untick or uncheck the Desktop Enabled and/or Mobile Enabled checkboxes. This provides the flexibility to tailor the notifications to specific devices.

Always remember to click the Save button after making any changes to apply your settings effectively.

Template

In the ToastiBar App, you can fully customize the popup message for the Cart Summary Notification by editing the template. The app provides several variables to personalize the message, such as {{ visitor_count }} variable will display the number of visitors who have added an item to their cart on your website, while the {{ add_to_cart_count }} variable shows the total number of items added to the cart by visitors. The {{ time_ago }} variable indicates the time period for reviewing past added-to-cart items.

You can also add emojis to the message as needed (optional). Additionally, you can set the Bold effect, Italic effect, Underline effect, and Strikethrough effect to normal text as well as the variables. If at any point you wish to reset the message to its default state, simply click the Reset button.

Make sure to click the Save button after making any changes to ensure your customizations are applied successfully.

This is a completely optional setting that allows you to change the language of the popup to suit your preferences. You can customize the popup in any language of your choice, which is especially useful for merchants with a global customer base.

There are two key variables you can use: {{ unit }} and {{ duration }}. The {{ unit }} describes the time period for reviewing the past added-to-cart items in digits and {{ duration }} is for the time for reviewing the past added-to-cart items. The {{ duration }} variable can display in different time units such as Days, Hours, Minutes, and Seconds. For example, "Days" will show how many days ago the product was added to the cart, "Hours" indicates how many hours ago, "Minutes" shows how many minutes ago, and "Seconds" displays how many seconds ago the product was added to the cart. These time-related terms can be customized in your preferred language whenever needed.

View All Templates

The View All Templates button will display a list of the templates added for different countries and languages (available only for Shopify). In this section, you can view the Country/Language name, the Template associated with it, and the available Action options. Under the Action column, you have the option to edit or delete a template.

Additionally, by clicking on the Add New Template button, you can create and add a new template for a specific country or language (available only for Shopify). This allows you to further customize the app’s messaging to match the language preferences of your customers across different regions.

Add New Template

Whenever you want to use a country/language-specific readymade template, you can easily add it by clicking the Add New Template button.

After clicking the button, the app will allow you to select a country/language (available only for Shopify) from the list. Simply find and select the desired country or language. Once selected, the app will display the readymade template for that specific country/language, including the Time Ago Language Settings (optional). You can modify the template as needed, or if you’re satisfied with the default template, you can directly add it by clicking the Save button. Once saved, the template will be added to your list, and you’ll be able to view all the templates you've added in the View All Templates section.

Other Settings

In the Cart Summary Notification Popups, the Other Settings allow you to choose the time period for reviewing past added to cart items, minimum add-to-cart count, icon colors and variables colors according to your preferences.

Time Ago: Here, you can specify the period for reviewing past added-to-cart products that you want to include while displaying the Cart Summary Notification Pop-up.

Minimum Add-to-Cart Count: Here, you can specify the minimum add-to-cart count that you want to include while displaying the Cart Summary Notification Pop-up. If the number of add-to-carts is below the value, then the app will not display the Cart Summary popups.

Icon Color: Here, you can select the color for the icon to match your design preferences.

Variables Color: You can choose and configure the color for the variables to align with your site's styling.

After making any adjustments, be sure to click the Save button to apply the changes.
