Hi,

How do I add a “continue shopping” button to my shopping cart page? Right now the customer only has the option to checkout. Tnx!

Hi @nijntjelover ,

It depends on which theme you are using. Some of the theme i have worked on alreay had the “Continue Shopping” button in the cart page.

However, you can also customize cart page and any button you like. Follow the below steps to add button on the cart page.

Step 1: Go to Themes > Customize

Step 2: Select “Cart”

Step 3: Add “Rich text”

Step 4: Remove all element except the button

Step 5 : Save the changes
