Hello My store is set up to show cart drawer when someone click on add to cart but it is still taking me to the cart page, the cart drawers isn’t showing. Can someone help me with this.
Topic summary
A Shopify store owner’s cart drawer stopped functioning after uninstalling a cart upsell app. Instead of opening the drawer when clicking “Add to Cart,” the site redirects to the full cart page.
Key findings:
- Theme settings correctly show “Cart type” set to “Drawer”
- Issue affects only products using the native theme’s add-to-cart button
- Products with cross-sell/bundle buttons (from remaining apps) still open the drawer correctly
- The uninstalled app appears to have left behind code or conflicts
Proposed solutions:
- Developer suggested replacing native buttons with the working app buttons (which support quantity selection and drawer functionality)
- Store owner prefers debugging to restore original functionality
- Developer indicated this requires custom code work beyond basic troubleshooting
Current status: Discussion moved to private messages for potential paid development work. The issue remains unresolved through standard troubleshooting methods.

Hi, Please share store url.
yes, the problem started after I uninstalled a cart upsell app
It does open for most of the products, on your external apps might be interfering.
It does for the products that have cross sell button but the product pages with the add to cart button that came with the theme website it doesn’t like this one.

no was my first time but I don’t want the upsell in cart anymore, however my cart drawer is not showing
Yes, you are right. The products that have that extra grey button to add items, only these behave strange.
On adding to cart from that grey button opens the cart drawer as well but the native one doesn’t.
Have you tried removing the app that was interfering, if yes, then are you still facing this issue or is it ok?
If it still doesn’t work we can try some code setup trying to make this work.

I removed the app and I am still facing the same problem, any help would be great.
Would need Collab access to your store for that because I will try some code on it. Not sure of the impact but worth a try I guess.
My collab code is 2136
Request sent.
I have accepted your request
Hey so i checked it. The products where you dont have that extra button, even on them add to cart button is actually the app button but it does work well. the ones where you have bundles as frequently bought together which have that extra buttonwe can leverage that and place it down in the place of shopify add to cart button which works but takes you to the cart page rather than the drawer like this
We can change the background, why i came up with this is because your app gives options to choose if user wants to add those extra items, if not the product that user is on gets added and also it has the option to increase decrease quantity so we can also hide the quantity option. This is like a quick solution to this instead of debugging or adding code to handle this.
would you be able to debug I would like it the way it was before I had any problems, the app that I uninstalled never got back to me.
Debugging or writing code for this is a bit more than what we can call basic stuff.
