How To Move Empty Cart Label On Cart Drawer (Dawn Theme)

Topic summary

A user seeks to reposition the ‘empty cart label’ higher in the cart drawer on their Dawn theme store.

Two CSS solutions were provided:

  1. PageFly-Henry’s approach:

    • Navigate to Online Store → Theme → Edit code
    • Locate the base.css file
    • Add CSS targeting .cart-drawer__warnings.center and .cart-drawer__inner.empty classes
    • Apply justify-content: flex-start and margin-top: 25px properties
  2. ThePrimeWeb’s method:

    • Access Edit Code and open theme.liquid
    • Insert custom CSS below the <head> tag
    • Adjust the -425px value to control vertical positioning
    • Screenshot reference provided for implementation guidance

Both solutions involve adding custom CSS code to modify the empty cart label’s position. The discussion remains open for the original poster to test and confirm which approach works best.

Hi @MMast

This is Henry from PageFly - Landing Page Builder App

You can try this code by following these steps:

Step 1: Go to Online Store->Theme->Edit code.

Step 2: Search file base.css

Step 3: Paste the below code at bottom of the file → Save

.drawer__inner-empty .cart-drawer__warnings.center {

justify-content: flex-start !important;

margin-top: 25px;

}

Hope that my solution works for you.

Best regards,
