If a customer didn’t know this, then the arrow buttons which let them change the quantity number might be confusing, as they would not know how to “save” their changes. * Where did you try putting that code you mentioned? * [Peter Lawrenson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorro/) * (@lorro) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-update-cart-button-1/#post-5944843) * We may be able to help you better if you can tell us why you want to hide the“ Update cart” button. * Please post the url to your site so the markup can be examined with browser tools. It may be possible to find out why the css didn’t work. * Thread Starter [JulietaJimz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/julietajimz/) * (@julietajimz) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-update-cart-button-1/#post-5944884) * I Use Avada Theme, and resolved how to delete that button: * 1. At the file: /Avada/woocommerce/cart/cart.php 2. I deleted the next line: ” /> * I wanted delete the button “update cart” because for me it seems no have importance, and the cart it refresh automatically when “add” or “delete” any item. * And the point was because we have a lot abandoned carts at the site, and we want simplify the process to go checkout. Maybe two buttons for non-experience users could cause confusion. * We are now testing this hypothesis: [http://www.digitaldepot.com.mx](http://www.digitaldepot.com.mx) What do you recommend us instead? * [ebud](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ebud/) * (@ebud) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-update-cart-button-1/#post-5944885) * Is it possible to use the cart to build a list of product and prices, sorta of like a quote that they could print out and bring to physical store? * The user would not be buying the products online. * [ericbakuladavis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ericbakuladavis/) * (@ericbakuladavis) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-update-cart-button-1/#post-5944886) * Hi Julieta * It is true that the cart updates automatically when adding an item from the shop, or deleting an item from the cart. However, under “Cantidad”, you see the quantity of each item in the cart. The customer can change this number by clicking the + and – buttons or by clicking the number and changing it with the keyboard. The purpose of the “Update Cart” button is to save those changes. * I agree that the Update Cart button could be confusing to some people, but I’m not sure what to recommend… Maybe you’d like to make the quantity a solid number that can’t be changed with the + and – buttons or the keyboard. In that case, the customer could go back to the previous page and press “Anadir al carrito” again, to change the quantity. * [Peter Lawrenson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorro/) * (@lorro) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-update-cart-button-1/#post-5944887) * Your code edit will be overwritten by the next theme update. * The quantity change buttons affect the number but they do not affect the cart total as they should, so I think you still need the update cart button so customers can recalculate the total amount. * If you want to simplify the buying process easier, you should be able to bypass the cart page all together with this plugin: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-direct-checkout/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-direct-checkout/) * Thread Starter [JulietaJimz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/julietajimz/) * (@julietajimz) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-update-cart-button-1/#post-5944888) * Hi Ebud, that idea is wonderful, i´m gonna do it. Thanks * eric bakula davis, Yes, I noticed that if I change the field number will no refresh the total, but when you go checkout, the total is OK. Maybe i’ll deactivated this option like you said. * Lorro, thanks for that recommendation, I´m gonna study it and test it too. Thanks guys for your support, deserve a lot of stars. =) * [ericbakuladavis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ericbakuladavis/) * (@ericbakuladavis) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-update-cart-button-1/#post-5944889) * Hi lorro, * From the [Child Themes page](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes): * > If you modify a theme directly and it is updated, then your modifications may > be lost. * To me, the word “may” means that the theme update process doesn’t automatically delete everything. So could it be that her woocommerce folder would remain? * [Peter Lawrenson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorro/) * (@lorro) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-update-cart-button-1/#post-5944893) * [@ericbakuladavis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ericbakuladavis/) Its possible, but you don’t want to be checking and editing after each update. There is a tendency to accumulate edits over time and setting up a child theme is the recommended method for making them all update resistant.
