Hi,

When I add a product to my cart. In the description it shows - " Taxes, Discounts and shipping calculated at checkout". I want to edit this line to " Discounts to be applied at Checkout".

Website - www.slidein.co.in

I’m using the dawn theme.

Attached a screenshot for reference below.

Hi @slidein_india ,

In the file main-cart-footer.liquid, there will be these code as follow:
‘sections.cart.taxes_at_checkout_shipping_at_checkout_without_policy’

After that, in the file locales/en.default.json, find the text after the sections.cart, specifically, the “taxes_at_checkout_shipping_at_checkout_without_policy”

Then you can change the content there.

Hope this can help!

Best,

Daisy

Hello,

You can change this without the need for code changes. Go to Online store → Themes → Edit default theme content. Then go to the Sections tab, scroll down, and find this item Taxes at checkout shipping at checkout without policy. Change the text and you are good to go.
