# Sidebar cart installation

> Set up Bonde's sidebar cart for a better cart experience with upsells and bundle display.

Bonde's sidebar cart (also called a cart drawer) replaces your theme's default cart with a feature-rich experience that includes upsell display, bundle grouping, and subscription information.

## Features

* **Upsell display**: Show cart upsells directly in the sidebar
* **Bundle grouping**: Bundle items appear grouped together with expand/collapse
* **Subscription display**: Shows delivery frequency for subscription items
* **Customizable styling**: Match your theme's look and feel
* **Smooth animations**: Modern slide-in/out behavior

## Installation

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enable the app embed">
    Go to **Online Store > Themes > Customize**, click **App Embeds**, and enable the **Bonde** app embed.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable the sidebar cart">
    In the Bonde app, go to **Settings > Upsells > Sidebar Cart** and toggle on the sidebar cart.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure settings">
    Customize the sidebar cart appearance and behavior in the settings panel.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Configuration options

In **Settings > Upsells > Sidebar Cart**, you can configure:

* **Enable/disable**: Turn the sidebar cart on or off
* **Styling**: Colors, fonts, and spacing to match your theme
* **Upsell display**: Whether to show upsells in the cart and how many
* **Bundle display**: How bundle items are grouped and displayed

## Cart upsells

When you create cart upsells in Bonde, they automatically appear in the sidebar cart. See [Cart upsells](/upsells/cart) for details on creating upsell offers.

## Troubleshooting

**Sidebar cart not appearing?**

* Make sure the Bonde app embed is enabled in your theme
* Check that the sidebar cart is enabled in Settings > Upsells > Sidebar Cart
* Some themes have their own cart drawers that may conflict - you may need to disable the theme's cart drawer

**Cart upsells not showing?**

* Verify you have active cart upsells configured
* Check that the trigger conditions match the current cart contents
