FAQ

Does it require WooCommerce?

Yes.

Where does the free-shipping amount come from?

In Automatic mode, Nudge reads the minimum order amount from your enabled WooCommerce free-shipping method, using the smallest amount across your shipping zones. In Manual mode you set a fixed amount. If Automatic finds no qualifying method, it falls back to the manual amount.

What happens when no free-shipping goal is configured?

Nudge hides the bar rather than showing a broken or always-complete one. The same applies when the cart is empty.

Does it work with the Cart and Checkout blocks?

Yes. It renders on both the classic templates and the WooCommerce Cart/Checkout blocks, and declares HPOS and Cart/Checkout Blocks compatibility.

Can I place the bar somewhere custom?

Yes — use the [nudge_bar] shortcode in any page, post or widget. It shows the current cart’s progress and hides itself when the cart is empty or no goal is set.

How do I customise the message?

Use the {amount} token in the progress message so the remaining amount appears inline, and set a separate success message for when the goal is reached.

Can I match my brand colours?

Yes. The bar’s colours are CSS custom properties you set in the live preview, and the design is dark-mode aware.

Will it slow my store down or shift the layout?

No. The bar uses a tiny dependency-free script, the track reserves its height up front (zero CLS), and the fill animation respects prefers-reduced-motion.

Does it update live as the cart changes?

Yes. The bar re-renders with the cart and animates smoothly toward the goal, then switches to the success message when the goal is met.
