Cross Sell not always appearing and cart empty after adding

[evolve hosting 60]

I have 2 products created. 1 using Auto Release and 1 using cPanel

Settings for cross sell are attached

I go to the store and add a hosting package

After selecting my domain option, there's no sign of a cross sell for the second product

I don't have a domain registrar activated but I'm using 'use my domain my already own' and after that, the cart is empty

Lots of bugs with this right now

PHP 7.4.29

 

EDIT: I setup hexonet with test credentials and I'm still getting an empty cart after trying to add product and cross sell product when requiring a domain during configuration of the product.

Also, as an example, I have a hosting product and a firewall. If I assign firewall as a cross sell to the hosting plan and the hosting plan to the firweall as a cross sell - there are issues. I go and add the hosting plan first as a product, then the firewall as the cross sell. When it loops me back through to configure the firewall cross sell, it wants to show me the hosting plan as a cross sell. There should be some sort of check to prevent this from happening, IMO since at that point, I already have a hosting plan in the cart and don't need to see the option to cross sell another hosting plan to me.

Hi @evolve hosting,

Thanks for the report.

I've tested here on my stock 8.5 beta installation using the Twenty-One and Standard Cart themes. I confirm that the Cross-Sell message is correctly displayed after clicking "Continue" on the Product Configuration screen to add the product to the cart.

 

Can you confirm the file path at which the cross-sell is not being displayed as expected, please?

Are you testing on a brand new installation?

Are there any custom themes or order form templates in place?

Yes I see it working on my end also 🙂

Are you using the 'require domain' option and are you 'using an existing domain' or trying to register / transfer one during the process?

Fresh install. No custom theme or template in place. No additional mods or code changes.

It works when I click the 'continue' or 'add to cart' button and I see it working on the register / checkout page. It must have been a browser cache issue when I was testing yesterday.

I try existing domain only

I do want to make sure that this isn't lost in the thread. I think there needs to be a check that says 'if upsell product is already in the cart, don't suggest it again'.

I wouldn't expect items already in the cart to be shown in the Cross-sell message.

To test, I created two Products (Server 1 and Server 2), each cross-selling the other:

 

I began by ordering and configuring Server 1, and was served the Cross-sell message for Server 2 on the Review and Checkout page:

 

I clicked Add to Cart for the Server 2 product. Configured it and added to the cart.

The Cross-Sell message was not displayed a second time, and the Review & Checkout page was displayed without the Cross-Sell modal:

 

If you're still observing different behaviour @evolve hosting, can you please share some more details of the product and cross-sell configuration, and some screenshots or a screen-recording of the cart journey you're taking? That would be most helpful in helping us reproduce.

@WHMCS John when I tested this, I had each product in separate product groups. Maybe that is the difference? I have not had time to try anything else out recently but I will try to do so this week.
