Need Woocommerce to only allow 1 product in the ca

Question

I think this code should work but not exactly sure where to place it. Everywhere I have tried has failed so far...

add_action('init', 'woocommerce_clear_cart');

function woocommerce_clear_cart() {
global $woocommerce, $post, $wpdb;

$url = explode('/', 'http://'.$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"] . $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]);
$slug=$url[4];
$postid = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status='publish' AND post_name = '$slug'");

    if ($postid){
        if ($postid == PRODUCTID1 || $postid == PRODUCTID2){
        $woocommerce->cart->empty_cart();
        }
    }

}

Answer 1

Unfortunately there is no 'action' hook before WooCommerce adds an item to the cart. But they have a 'filter' hook before adding to cart. That is how I use it:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_add_cart_item_data', 'woo_custom_add_to_cart' );

function woo_custom_add_to_cart( $cart_item_data ) {

    global $woocommerce;
    $woocommerce->cart->empty_cart();

    // Do nothing with the data and return
    return $cart_item_data;
}

Answer 2

From my answer on another question:

There is a filter/hook that runs before an item is added to the cart as each product goes through validation before it is added.

So when validating a product, we can check if the item if there are already items in the cart and clears those (if the current item is able to be added) and adds an error message.

/**
 * When an item is added to the cart, remove other products
 */
function so_27030769_maybe_empty_cart( $valid, $product_id, $quantity ) {

    if( ! empty ( WC()->cart->get_cart() ) && $valid ){
        WC()->cart->empty_cart();
        wc_add_notice( 'Whoa hold up. You can only have 1 item in your cart', 'error' );
    }

    return $valid;

}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_add_to_cart_validation', 'so_27030769_maybe_empty_cart', 10, 3 );

Answer 3

Try this,

For removing the all products from the cart and adding the last added one,

//For removing all the items from the cart
global $woocommerce;
$woocommerce->cart->empty_cart();
$woocommerce->cart->add_to_cart($product_id,$qty);

class file is wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/classes/class-wc-cart.php.

You can add the above code on the add to cart function in functions.php.

Hope its works..

You have two options:

1. WooCommerce Min/Max Quantities extension
2. The following code added to your functions.php theme file

    add_filter ( 'woocommerce_before_cart' , 'allow_single_quantity_in_cart' );
    function allow_single_quantity_in_cart() {
            global $woocommerce;

            $cart_contents  =  $woocommerce->cart->get_cart();
            $keys           =  array_keys ( $cart_contents );

            foreach ( $keys as $key ) {
                    $woocommerce->cart->set_quantity ( $key, 1, true );
            }
    }

Answer 5

Don't add functions directly to your commerce files...you'll lose all your code when you update.

User functions should always be hooked through the functions.php of your theme.

Answer 6

If you want to restrict the number of products to just 1:

function check_if_cart_has_product( $valid, $product_id, $quantity ) {  

    if(!empty(WC()->cart->get_cart()) && $valid){
        foreach (WC()->cart->get_cart() as $cart_item_key => $values) {
            $_product = $values['data'];

            if( $product_id == $_product->id ) {
                wc_add_notice( 'The product is already in cart', 'error' );
                return false;
            }
        }
    }

    return $valid;

}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_add_to_cart_validation', 'check_if_cart_has_product', 10, 3 );
