## Description

Pexalvo Side Cart adds a responsive cart drawer to WooCommerce. Customers can review
products, change quantities, remove items, apply coupons and proceed to checkout
without reloading the page.

The cart works with WooCommerce without Divi using the default or previously saved
settings. Divi 5 is required to configure all plugin settings, including behavior
and appearance. There is no separate WordPress settings editor. Divi is a third-
party commercial product and is not included with this plugin.

Features:

 * AJAX quantity changes, removals and coupon management
 * Floating button, menu launcher and [pexalvosidecart] shortcode
 * WooCommerce cross-sell recommendations
 * Free-shipping progress based on WooCommerce shipping zones
 * Automatic gift with a configurable threshold
 * Native Divi 5 module with Content and Design controls
 * Responsive controls for desktop, tablet and phone
 * WooCommerce Blocks synchronization adapter
 * Keyboard focus management, ARIA labels and reduced-motion support
 * Optional diagnostic logging without analytics or telemetry
 * Translation-ready English source; language packs managed by WordPress.org

### Privacy

Pexalvo Side Cart contains no analytics or telemetry and does not send cart, customer,
usage or diagnostic data to Pexalvo. Cart contents and sessions are handled by WordPress
and WooCommerce on your website.

Optional diagnostic logging records product or variation identifiers and technical
results in WooCommerce logs, not names, email addresses, postal addresses, IP addresses
or payment information.

If a Google font is selected in Divi, Divi may contact Google depending on its font
configuration. Use Divi’s local font options where required. The plugin bundles 
no remote fonts or tracking service.

### Trademarks

Pexalvo Side Cart is an independent product by pixelmedias.ca. It is not affiliated
with or endorsed by Automattic Inc. or Elegant Themes, Inc. WooCommerce and Divi
are trademarks of their respective owners.

Code and supplied project artwork are distributed under GPLv2 or later. LICENSE.
txt and THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt contain the license and asset notices. Trademark
rights are separate from copyright permissions.

### Development

All runtime JavaScript is readable. The canonical Divi source is included at divi-
5/visual-builder/src/woo-side-cart.js. The distributed file at divi-5/visual-builder/
build/woo-side-cart.js is an identical copy with LF line endings; no compiler, bundler
or npm dependency is required.

To reproduce it from the plugin directory, copy the source to the build location.
For example, with Node.js:

    ```
    node -e "const fs=require('fs'); const p='divi-5/visual-builder/'; fs.writeFileSync(p+'build/woo-side-cart.js',fs.readFileSync(p+'src/woo-side-cart.js','utf8').replace(/\r\n/g,'\n'));"
    ```

Development-only PowerShell scripts and translation catalogs are excluded from this
distribution. WordPress loads available language packs automatically. French translations
are not bundled and are only available when the corresponding language packs have
been published on WordPress.org.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate WooCommerce.
 2. Upload the ZIP through Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, then activate Pexalvo
    Side Cart.
 3. Version 1.15.20 starts with new settings and module identifiers. Reconfigure your
    settings and replace previously saved modules with the Pexalvo Side Cart module.
    Replace previous shortcodes with [pexalvosidecart]. There is no automatic migration
    or legacy alias.
 4. Activate Divi 5 and add the Pexalvo Side Cart module to a page or global header
    to configure the plugin. Set behavior under Content and appearance under Design,
    then save in Divi.
 5. Add other launchers through Appearance > Menus or the [pexalvosidecart] shortcode.
 6. Future ZIP updates use the stable pexalvo-side-cart folder and WordPress’s replacement
    option.

## FAQ

### Does the plugin require Divi?

Divi 5 is required to configure all plugin settings, not just styles. Without Divi
the cart operates with default or previously saved settings. Divi is not bundled.

### Where are the settings?

Open the Pexalvo Side Cart module in Divi 5. Clicking the floating cart button in
the Visual Builder opens the same native settings.

### How is free-shipping progress calculated?

Configure the free-shipping method in WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping > Shipping
zones. The plugin uses the matching zone’s minimum amount and before/after coupon
rule. Enable or disable the bar with Show free shipping progress in Divi. There 
is no separate amount to configure in this plugin.

Free shipping is confirmed only when every calculated package offers a free-shipping
rate. The bar is hidden when no reliable monetary target exists, including coupon-
only or combined requirements without an available free rate. The plugin does not
create shipping methods. Third-party shipping methods with different identifiers
are not interpreted as WooCommerce free-shipping methods.

### How does the automatic gift work?

The gift threshold uses the current product price multiplied by quantity for non-
gift items, before coupons, taxes and shipping. At least one non-gift item with 
positive quantity is required, even at a zero threshold. Removing the last non-gift
item removes the gift.

### Which shortcode and identifiers does this version use?

Use [pexalvosidecart]. Settings, AJAX actions, CSS classes and the Divi module use
Pexalvo identifiers. Previous names are not registered or migrated. Previous database
entries are not deleted by this update.
