Look at this page for example:
http://vincebodie.com/golden-hill-homes-for-travis

Add some photos to the cart, then click "Open Cart" and you will see "Your cart is currently empty."

My settings are as shown in the screen shot. For External cart link I have:
http://vincebodie.com/${folder}/${fileBase}

Please help, thanks!

Please do not disable the "component cart" if you don't use the cart module. In this case there is no cart on the page which can care about adding items.

vincebodie
OK, now the cart shows on the event page, but I still get the message "Your cart is currently empty." when going to the cart page.

sbluege
Can you please check if the Cache Plugin is active? If so, please disable it.

vincebodie
OK, disabling the cache plugin made the cart appear correctly. I don't want to have to disable it for good though, hoping you have a solution for this.
Thanks,Vince

There is no solution. This plugin caches the whole site without taking the current user into account. It does not support any dynamic data. Same url, same delivered content. Since it's a system plugin you can't even sneak around.

vincebodie
OK, I think I can get around this with a cache control plugin which I have used on some of my other sites (I forget which one at the moment, perhaps JCHOptimize?). I know there is one that does not allow caching for certain pages. I will look into it and get back to you.

Please don't expect too much support from my site here. The normal Joomla cache should work since it caches a little bit more intelligent but on the other site less efficient.
