Questions

Is there a free Elementor mini cart plugin?

Yes, free ones may exist. Build your own when you want exact behavior and nothing extra.

Does the cart update without reloading?

Yes. The count and the dropdown refresh when someone adds a product. Ora checks this on your practice site.

Do I need Elementor?

Yes. This plugin is built for Elementor and adds a mini cart widget to the Elementor editor and reads your WooCommerce cart, so your site needs Elementor. You don't need to buy Happy Addons Pro.

Can I get a refund?

The trial fee is refunded automatically if a build fails. A purchased plugin can be refunded within 14 days if it doesn't do what the approved plan said and Ora can't fix it, as long as it hasn't been downloaded or installed.
