Removing alert box in Add to Cart

[soldieroflight]

Hi,

I really need your help on how to remove the add to cart alert box.

I thought using window.alert=function(msg){}  would help but it removes all the other alert boxes in the site.

Thank you.

I wouldn't remove the alerts all together, just display them in a div.

Here is what I do in the shopping cart.

First open the shopping cart layout ( /Layouts/OnlineShop/shopping_cart-XX -- XX is the country code)

Right above my checkout button (aka: {tag_buybutton} ) I insert this div:

<span class="msg" style="display:none"></span>

Then, in the same layout I insert this code:

<script>

$(function() {

     window.alert = function(msg) {

        msg = msg.replace('ERROR: ','');

        $('.msg').text(msg).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut()

     }

});

</script>

If you add this code to your site template it will remove all your alerts; this is why you only add the code to your layout.

Hope this helps!

This is what you gotta do soldieroflight​ (I realise it's probably two years too late but for what it's worth 😞

<script type="text/javascript">

     // saves the alert to be referenced later if conditions for exclusion are not met

     window.default = window.alert;

     window.alert = function alert(msg) {

         // defines the text to trigger exclusion - doesn't have to be the entire message

          var excludedAlert = 'added to your cart';

          // if alert contains aforementioned text

          if (msg.indexOf(excludedAlert) != -1) {

               // do nothing

               console.log('Suppressed!');

          }

          // otherwise

          else {

               // display alert

               window.default(msg);

          }

     };

</script>

Hope that helps!
