Disable cart link in primary menu

Hi there,

How are you telling it to open the popup? Javascript?

If so, you can tell your javascript function to ignore the default behavior of the link by using e.preventDefault() at the top of your function. This assumes e is passed as an argument in the click handler.

Thanks, Tom. I'm actually telling it to open the popup using a hook provided by the plugin:

add_filter( 'yith_wacp_open_popup_selectors', function(){ return '.shopping-cart'; } );

I could just apply that filter to a custom menu item, of course, but I wanted to retain the built-in functionality of the GP cart (with its menu bar positioning and item count badge).

You could add a little javascript to disable it yourself:

var cartMenuLinks = document.querySelectorAll( '.main-navigation a.cart-contents' );

for ( var link = 0; link < cartMenuLinks.length; link++ ) {
    cartMenuLinks[ link ].addEventListener( 'click', function( e ) {
        e.preventDefault();
    } );
}

This can be added to a custom JS file, or in the wp_footer hook between <script></script> tags.

Hope it helps!

Thanks, Tom! To get this to work I needed to tweak the first line to this:
var cartMenuLinks = document.querySelectorAll( '.main-navigation a.cart-contents' );

All is good now. :)

Ah, nice catch. Glad it's working! :)
