📖 Show product recommendations inside the Boost Cart drawer to encourage add-on purchases before checkout. These recommendations appear in the Boost Cart drawer only, not in your theme's own cart drawer.
⚠️ Before you start
This feature only works with Boost AI Search & Discovery TURBO and subscribers of Boost GMV-based plans. To find out which version of our app you are using, follow Boost AI Search & Discovery app versions.
Your recommendations appear in the Boost Cart drawer only. If your shoppers open your theme's own cart drawer instead, the widget does not appear there.
Keep your Cart drawer turned on in the Visual Design Editor. Turning it off hides your Cart drawer recommendations. To check the setting, follow Manage your template: Cart drawer.
Create a Cart Drawer Recommendation widget
In Boost admin, go to Merchandising > Recommendation > Widgets.
Click Add new widget.
In Recommendation Type, select Cart Drawer.
Select your preferred Recommendation type.
Set up your widget’s content/rules and design.
Click Save & next until you reach the “add widget to theme” step.
Add your widget to your live theme
When you reach the last step of the widget setup, the Add widget to your live theme screen guides you through the rest. Both steps have a button that takes you where you need to go, so you do not have to navigate there yourself.
Step 1: Enable Boost Core
Your widget only appears on your storefront once Boost Core (New) is enabled on your live theme.
Under Step 1: Enable Boost Core, click Enable Boost Core.
💪 If Boost Core (New) is already enabled on your theme, you can move straight on to Step 2.
Step 2: Enable Cart Drawer
Under Step 2: Enable Cart Drawer, click Open Visual editor.
In the Visual Editor, click the Advanced features (cog) icon, then select Cart drawer.
Enable Show Recommendation widget
Paste your widget ID (format:
cartdrawer-xxxxxx) into Widget ID.Click Save.
⚠️ Your recommendations will not appear until both the Cart drawer toggle and Show Recommendation widget are on and your widget ID is saved.
