I’ve been using the free version of this plugin for years. For themes with no cart,
it’s an absolute must and I can’t recommend it enough.

Yeah, I’m one happy camper. After finding way too many function.php code snippets(
that didn’t work) for adding the cart totals to Divi, I found this plugin that worked
even better than I wanted. It ads to price total as well, if you want! Thank you
so much for this plugin! I’ll stop shouting now…
