Remove All Items from Cart with a Button

Hi, I'm working on a project that requires a quick way of removing all items from the cart. Ideally, with a click of a button in the cart module. The placing of the button and all that is simple but what actually needs to be done to remove the contents of the cart? I've tried putting in a serialized empty array for the cart field for that user but the cart contents are still displayed in the module. Is there some sort of cache that I need to clear out as well? What would be the easiest way to do this and what steps are involved?

Thanks in advance

Hello,


I think you need to use the AJAX portion of the cart. i was able to make the remove button for each product remove automatically with the confirm? message window. This work needs to be done in cart.tpl in your template folder.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Buildanewcomputer, I'll start there. If you wouldn't mind, could you share the code you used to do that?

Yeah, I tried that but it doesn't seem to work with the latest release.

Here you go.

I mad a thread about it. All you need to do is re-point it to a button.

Thanks Buildanewcomputer. Until this thread I hadn't even noticed the little remove buttons to the left of every item. I'm sure I can use that to somehow make a one click remove all button at the bottom of that module. Thanks for the tip.
