AgoraCart Free User Forums

Whenever two people are on my website using the cart simultaneously, and they add items to the cart, the other user can see all the items of the other person's cart. The items stay there until a person clears the cart, or an order is placed and the cart is cleared. As well, one person can see another person's credit card info, name, address, phone, etc, if two people or more are using at the same time.
What can fix this?

the only way this can happen is if you hardcoded a cart id in any or all links. check all of your hard coded links coming into your store and within your store. an example of linking to a product category from outside the store...

<a href="http://www.domain.com/store/agora.cgi?product=pickel_picker&xm=on"> Pickel Pickers </a>
&xm=on is optional. if you have a lot of categories with like words then use it for best results.
don't use &cart_id= or the token %%cart_id%% and especially do not use the actual cart id as when copying and pasting existing rendered links in the store. strip the link down so it looks like above if using that method to develop your links.

for links withing the store it's best to use the cart_id= or cart_id=%%cart_id%% in the query. for example...

<a href="http://www.domain.com/store/agora.cgi?cart_id=&product=pickel_picker&xm=on"> Pickel Pickers </a>

or

<a href="http://www.domain.com/store/agora.cgi?cart_id=%%cart_id%%&product=pickel_picker&xm=on"> Pickel Pickers </a>

note that the cart_id token is optional. the store will fill in the cart id if the query string is properly composed.

you must find every link with a hardcoded cart id and edit it (them) ASAP. the only way to assure you're editing correctly is to look at the raw source of the page through ftp, your local files or whatever. do not use your web browser to try and determine this. take out the cart ids then upload overwritting the original file.
