While the Floating Cart can be opened and closed, and hovers or floats above your store pages, the Mini-cart is integrated directly within your store pages, and displays a summary of selected cart information to customers. Using Floating Cart Manager, you can choose to display the number of items in a customer's cart and order subtotal in the Mini-cart, as well as set a custom Mini-cart label, and upload a custom Mini-cart icon.

If using Editor 3.0 templates, you must publish Store Editor prior to the first time you enable the Floating Cart and Mini-cart. If you are using Editor 2.0 templates or custom templates, you must manually install code for the Mini-cart and Floating Cart before enabling the Mini-cart and Floating Cart in Floating Cart Manager. Please consult the Manual Setup tab in Floating Cart Manager.
