Why does my cart page still show instead of the drawer?

The drawer doesn't redirect your /cart page. Here is what it catches and what it leaves alone.

Updated November 4, 2026

The drawer doesn't replace your theme's cart page. It catches add-to-cart actions, cart icons and links to the cart page. A shopper who types /cart, or comes from a link we don't catch, sees your theme's cart page. That is expected.

What opens the drawer

With Open drawer when cart icons are clicked on:

  • Your theme's cart icon.
  • Any link on your store to the cart page.

With Open drawer when products are added on:

  • Add-to-cart forms.
  • Adds through Shopify's standard cart address.

What still shows the cart page

  • Typing /cart in the address bar.
  • A link from an email or another site.
  • A link built in an unusual way, or a setting above turned off.

What the cart page shows

  • Your theme's cart page, not our blocks. The reward bar and upsells show only in the drawer.
  • Free gifts still work there. The drawer script runs on that page and adds or removes them.
  • Free shipping and order discounts still apply at checkout.

The drawer has no block for the cart page, and we can't redirect /cart.

  1. In Shopify admin, open Apps → Section Store → Cart Drawer.
  2. Click Edit on your cart.
  3. Under General, open Settings.
  4. Tick Open drawer when cart icons are clicked.
  5. Click Save.
