When the main WooCommerce purchase area scrolls out of view, the plugin can keep important product information and the purchase action visible at the top or bottom of the screen. Version 2.0 is a complete modernization of the original Sticky WooCommerce Header Cart plugin. #### Why use a sticky purchase bar? Long product pages often contain galleries, descriptions, specifications, reviews, related products, and other content. As shoppers move down the page, the normal Add to Cart area may no longer be visible. Sticky WooCommerce Header Cart keeps the purchase action accessible without requiring theme template edits. #### Highlights * Smart visibility after the main WooCommerce purchase form leaves the viewport * Optional fixed scroll-distance trigger * Top or bottom sticky position * Show or hide product image * Show or hide product title * Show or hide product price * Optional stock-status display * Quantity control for simple products * Direct Add to Cart support for purchasable simple products * Product-aware handling for variable, grouped, external, and other product types * Variable-product price updates after a variation is selected * Responsive mobile layout * Enable or disable the sticky bar on mobile * Optionally hide the product image on smaller screens * Slide, fade, or no animation * Contained or full-width layout * Configurable background, text, and button accent colors * Optional dismiss button * Keyboard focus styles * Reduced-motion support * No external service or API key required * No telemetry or remote tracking * No theme template editing required #### Smart display modes Choose how the sticky bar becomes visible: **After main cart leaves view** The sticky bar stays hidden while the normal WooCommerce purchase form is visible. It appears after that purchase area scrolls above the viewport. **After scroll distance** Show the sticky bar after the visitor scrolls a configurable number of pixels. #### Product-aware purchasing **Simple products** Purchasable simple products can display quantity and Add to Cart controls directly in the sticky bar. **Variable products** Before a variation is selected, the sticky bar displays a Choose options action. After WooCommerce detects a valid variation selection, the sticky bar can reflect the selected variation price and product state. The shopper remains connected to WooCommerce’s main variation form so required attributes and WooCommerce validation are not bypassed. **Grouped, external, and other product types** Products that require their own WooCommerce purchase flow are not forced into a simple-product Add to Cart process. The sticky action guides the shopper to the main product purchase area instead. #### Lightweight by design The plugin does not create custom database tables and does not require an external account, API key, analytics service, or remote tracking service. Its purpose is intentionally focused: improve access to the product purchase action on WooCommerce single-product pages. ## Screenshots [⌊Version 2.0 settings screen with display, behavior, mobile, and appearance controls.⌉⌊ Version 2.0 settings screen with display, behavior, mobile, and appearance controls .⌉[ Version 2.0 settings screen with display, behavior, mobile, and appearance controls.

The sticky purchase bar is designed specifically for WooCommerce single-product pages. If WooCommerce is unavailable, the plugin remains safe and displays an administrator notice rather than causing a frontend error. ### Does the sticky cart appear on the Shop page or product category pages? No. Version 2.0 is intentionally focused on WooCommerce single-product pages, where the complete product and purchasing context is available. ### Do I need to edit my theme files? No. The sticky purchase bar is added automatically on supported WooCommerce product pages. ### What does “After main cart leaves view” mean? The sticky bar remains hidden while WooCommerce’s normal purchase form is visible. When the visitor scrolls far enough that the normal Add to Cart area is no longer visible, the sticky bar appears. ### What does “After scroll distance” mean? The sticky bar appears after the visitor scrolls the configured number of pixels. ### Does it support simple products? Yes. Purchasable simple products can display quantity and Add to Cart controls directly in the sticky bar. ### Does it support variable products? Yes. The sticky bar can respond to WooCommerce’s selected variation state and update the displayed price. Required variation choices and WooCommerce validation remain handled by WooCommerce’s main product form. ### What about grouped and external products? The sticky bar respects their WooCommerce-specific purchase flow and guides the shopper to the main purchase area rather than bypassing required behavior. ### Can the sticky bar appear at the bottom of the screen? Yes. Choose Top or Bottom in the plugin settings. ### Can I disable the sticky cart on mobile? Yes. Mobile display can be disabled independently. You can also keep it enabled while hiding the product image on smaller screens. ### Can visitors close the sticky bar? Yes. Enable the optional dismiss control in the plugin settings. ### Does the plugin send data to an external service? No. The plugin does not add telemetry, analytics, external APIs, or remote tracking. ### Will my old version 1.0 settings cause problems? Version 2.0 replaces the obsolete version 1.0 settings interface with a new focused configuration. Legacy options are not used by the new sticky purchase bar and are removed only when the plugin is uninstalled. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Sticky WooCommerce Header Cart” is open source software.
