## Description
This plugin allows you to add a customizable button to clear the cart. The button
appears on the WooCommerce’s cart page and when pressed, it asks for confirmation
if the shopping cart should really be cleared. If the shopper clicks ok, it will
remove all items from their WooCommerce shopping.
You may change the text for the questions. Also the position and colors of the button.
#### AFTER INSTALL
After installation and activation, on the plugins page, find RaCar Clear Cart for
WooCommerce on the list and click ‘settings’ right under the title. It’ll take you
to the plugin’s settings page. Another way of getting there is through the left
admin menu. Find the RaCar Plugins handle and click it.
#### HOW TO USE IT
On settings page, choose your options such as colors and text and enable the plugin
so the button will show.
The button itself is a ‘’ HTML tag, has the ‘class=”button”‘
and ‘id=”clear-cart”‘, so you’re welcome to add your own CSS to it. If doing so,
leave the options on options page blank. In failing to do so, you’ll have to use
the ‘!important’ to some of the elements such as ‘background’ and ‘color’.
#### RESET SETTINGS
So far, the only way to reset your settings is unistalling the plugin and installing
it back on. Just deactivating and activating will NOT reset settings, only the unistalling
will.
#### Languages
This plugin was written in English and has Brazilian Portuguese transalations. Este
plugin está traduzido em Português do Brasil.

of RaCar Clear Cart for WooCommerce, log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate
to the Plugins menu and click Add New.
In the search field type “RaCar Clear Cart for WooCommerce” and click Search Plugins.

1. WordPress Admin Dashboard
* On the left menu, click Plugins / Add New.
* Upload the file `racar-clear-cart-for-woocommerce.zip`.
* Activate it.
* Go to settings page.
* Enable it.
1. FTP
* Unzip the file `racar-clear-cart-for-woocommerce.zip`.
* Upload the unziped folder `racar-clear-cart-for-woocommerce` to the `/wp-content/
plugins/` directory.

#### Updating
Automatic updates should work like a charm; as always though, ensure you backup
your site just in case.
## FAQ
### Where can I find documentation for this plugin?
There is not one yet. As the plugin is so easy to use, the screenshots above should
suffice to get you on the right track.
### My button seems broken
Try and strip other CSS from the button. The button itself is a ‘’ HTML tag, has the ‘class=”button”‘ and ‘id=”clear-cart”‘.
### Where can I get support or talk to other users?
If you get stuck, you can ask for help in the [Plugin Forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/racar-clear-cart-for-woocommerce/).

Finally an Empty Cart button that works as it should! Even with Ajax shop.I treat
the developer to a cup of coffee and tip at the same time that a function where
you can set a redirect to another page could be nice as well.

It works great, the possibility to customize the button is enough. We can change
the expressions on the noses by translating them into our own language. It works
perfectly compared to other plugins that we’ve run into with weird problems. Thanks.

I can’t believe Woocommerce can’t have a default Clear Cart. Large online shopping
sites all have one. This solved my problem, as no way in hell should any shopper
have to wait 48 hours for a cart to clear if they clicked on the wrong item or changed
their mind and went with another product. This plugin works perfectly and within
minutes – download, install, change button appearance – done. Thank you.
