Re: how to copy a cart session

Hi,

Not sure this is what you mean, but I am trying to help.

If I understand the cart data is saved somewhere in your database, and is linked to the user.

How did you do your cart form?

I think I have a similar scenario, in my case, I have a ModelForm based on an Order model I have defined

(which in your case, could be linked to a session ID in the begining and later to the user)

So when user looks at his/hers orders, and click on one, it actualy open the ModelForm with the related data

If you want to actualy duplicate it, you can use the data from the order that was just clicked as an "initial" data to a new instance of the ModelForm

One note - in a cart scenarion, the ModelForm is normally a ModelFormSet because the cart, includes many products, and you should be able to modify the quantity or delete each product

Hope this helps

Hello everyone,

I have an e-commerce site

A user arrives  without first logging in, adds a few things to their cart,  a session is established for this user, and then proceeds to the checkout. the command is then saved in database.

Now I need the user to log in and see their recent commands,untill now no probleme (at least at first sight) but the user want to "duplicate" one of their recent commands put it in the current cart then modify on it if necessary before checkout

I have absolutely no idea how to do that :/

If possible,I need a quick answer on the complexity of doing it and how much time I need so I can go back to my boss

then any clues to help me do that would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance
