If you are not good with coding, you might be looking for a simple option to add the quantity selector to the cart page. Here’s how to do it: 

  • Go to the Online Store and select Themes 
  • Then, go to Customize Theme and click on the product page 
  • The right-hand side of the page will have a list of page features. Select Product Pages 
  • Then, click on Show Quantity Selector
  • Tick the checkbox. Once you save these settings, your customers will be able to select the number of items they want to add to the cart 
  • Plus, they will also see the option to increase or decrease the number of items in the cart 

For instance, if they have added three products to their cart from the product page but want to minus one, they can do that once they reach the cart page. 

However, this Quantity Selector feature is not available for all themes. So, if your theme does not contain this feature, you might want to use this fiddle. It will help you add this functionality to your store. You’ll merely have to make a few modifications depending on the theme.
