Empty cart when changing languages

Ivan Marijanović

Hi everybody.

We would like to empty cart when we user changes languge on webshop. So I added cartcmd=EmptyCart at end of link. What happends is that when I click on that link the cart gets emptied but there is no redirection - I stay on same page instead of going to different langugage page. if cart is empty the website opens different language page as expected.

It si Rapido 3.0 and DW 9.8.9

Thank you in advance.

You cannot do that in one request. You would have to put it into a javascript and when switching language, first make a request to empty the cart (fetch or XMLhttp), and then make the redirect to the new language...

Colud you give me example how to use fetch to empty cart. Now when I use javascript I get same result because it trys to redirect before EmptyCart is finsihed. It should probably use somekind of ajax call but I am not sure how to do that.

function redirectToLanguage(address) {
googleEnchantImpressionEmptyCart();
Cart.EmptyCart(event);
window.location.href = address;
}
