The last graph "Existing Clients Carts / All Carts (%)" represents the percentage of cars created by the existing clients (unlogged guests are not taken into consideration)
towards the number of all carts (created by existing clients and guests together).

Shopping Carts

The 'Shopping Carts' section, as its name suggests, contains a list of all identified carts, with details included, as follows:
  • client full name and its company name (if known)
  • the URL to the order if created
  • the cart details

Press the "Snapshots" button to find more specific information on the cart content and actions performed within that cart.

AC 13.png
Under "Snapshots" there are details on the cart content, visible at the moment of the last snapshot being taken.
You will find there also the history of changes made by the client, such as:
  • adding a new product/addon/domain
  • removing a product/addon/domain
AC 14.png
Right next to the shopping cart details you will find a button which after pressing shows a direct URL to the abandoned cart.
AC 14 1.png
AC 14 2.png
This URL can be automatically placed in the email message sent to a client provided a dedicated "Restore Abandoned Cart" option has been previously enabled (more here).
On pressing, the client can get his abandoned cart restored and he will be allowed to continue shopping with the already filled in cart with all the items.
You may also use this URL to resend it manually.
AC 14 3.png
You may send email template reminders to preferred clients directly from the shopping carts list. Send emails to single clients or choose several recipients.

Reminders

"Reminders" is the clue section of the whole module. Compose the reminders settings to deliver adjusted notifications to clients who abandoned their cart.
Press 'Create Reminder' button to create your first rule.
AC 15.png
Configure the reminder by providing the details as explained below:
  • Status - enable/disable the reminder
  • Name - give the reminder a unique name
  • Email Template for Existing Clients - choose the email template that will be used to send an email message notifying your already logged in/registered client; "Abandoned Cart - Logged In Client Notification" is the default module template.
  • Email Template for Guests - choose the email template that will be used send an email message notifying your guest clients who visited your client area and started shopping; "Abandoned Cart - Open Ticket For Guest" is the default module template.
    You may preview and adjust the email templates content at your WHMCS → System Settings → Email Templates.
    Note: A support ticket is opened at the same time within a dedicated support department.
  • Related Products/Addons/Domains - select items; if any has been added to the cart, a related reminder will be sent to the interested client (logged in or guest who provided the email address)
  • Include Carts Created More Than X Days Ago - type in the number of days, only carts created BEFORE will be verified
  • Include Carts Created Less Than X Days Ago - type in the number of days, only carts created AFTER will be verified,
    as illustrated: only carts created between the last 3 and 7 days will be checked

Press 'Confirm' when your reminder configuration is ready.

AC 16.png
The just created reminder rule will appear on the list with crucial details visible on the front page for a quick and easy preview.

You may enable/disable the reminder, edit and delete it using the actions buttons.

General Settings

Under the 'General Settings' section you will find the cron details - setting it up is crucial for the module's correct behavior and configuration.

Cron Task
Set up the cron that is responsible for sending email messages, based on created reminders as explained in the previous step. Once a day is recommended to assure fluent module performance.

AC 18.png
General Settings:
  • Client Email Address - related to new visitors only; when a guest client starts to browse your store, he or she will be asked to provide an email address before being allowed to continue and complete the order:
    • Disabled
    • Require email address - the client will be forced to enter the email address to be able to continue the shopping
    • Allow to skip this step - the client can type in the email address or press "Skip" to continue shopping, if "Skip" is pressed, no data will be collected by the module
  • Force Login/Registration - related to new visitors and unlogged clients; when a client adds an item to the cart, he or she will be forced to either log in (if the account already exists) or register a new account (new clients).
    Otherwise, continuing the shopping will be impossible.
    Important: Being logged in or at least providing an email address is required for the module correct behavior, without the email address no messages will be sent to remind clients about their abandoned carts.
    Note: We highly recommend enabling just one of the options, otherwise, guest clients will be forced to provide an email address in the first step and register an account in the next one.
  • Restore Abandoned Cart - if enabled, clients will receive a direct link to their abandoned cart, in the module reminding email message, with its all contents restored to easily complete the order.
  • Support Department - select one of the available support departments. A ticket to remind the guest clients about their abandoned carts will be opened within this department.

When your configuration is ready, do not forget to press the 'Submit' button to save your changes.

  • Allow To Save Shopping Carts - when turned on, customers have the ability to save their shopping carts while placing an order.
    They can later access these carts from their profiles and share them with other customers using session URLs, instantly restoring the cart's contents.

Client Area

Email/Login Requirement

Once an unlogged client visits your marketplace, they will be asked to leave some of their personal data. The extent of what exactly must be provided depends on the module configuration.
The moment the client starts browsing your store, they will be either:
  • forced to provide an email address in order to be allowed to complete the shopping ("Client Email Address" option is set to "Require email address")
AC 22.png
  • asked to enter an email address in order to be allowed to complete the shopping ("Client Email Address" option is set to "Allow to skip this step")
AC 22 1.png
  • forced to log in or register a new account in order to be allowed to complete the shopping ("Force Login/Registration" option is enabled)
AC 23.png
If 'Log in' is selected, the potential customer will be redirected to the standard client area login page.
AC 23 1.png
For 'Register' choice, the visitor will be asked to create a new account using a standard form.
AC 23 2.png
Being logged in or leaving an email address is required for the module to be able to send email messages to clients reminding them about abandoned carts and their content.

This is how an exemplary email notification sent to a client might look like:

AC 24.png
Guest clients who leave only the email address and have no account in your system will get quite a similar notification email.

Note: The system will open a new support ticket in a dedicated department at the same time. Only the assigned admin will have access to this ticket.

Shopping Lists

Clients have the convenience of storing their shopping carts to be viewed and finalized in the future.
By clicking the "Save Cart" button while in your cart, the current contents of the cart will be promptly saved and stored in your shopping lists.
AC 28.png
AC 29.png
Once you have saved the cart as a shopping list, you can then access the list and manage it according to your needs.
You will find the "My Shopping Lists" button in your account details dropdown menu.
AC 30.png
Once you navigate to the "My Shopping Lists" page, you will find all your stored carts with basic details on the dashboard.

Allowed actions on a : - Shopping cart URL - Shopping cart items - Delete saved shopping cart

AC 31.png
Clients may copy a direct URL to the cart and distribute it to others by providing them with the link. Upon opening the link, they will receive an identical copy of your shopping cart, allowing them to place their orders more quickly.
AC 32.png
Explore the contents of this shopping list by previewing the items. Check details on the item types and their current availability in the store.

Easily remove individual carts or utilize the mass action button to eliminate multiple items at once.
