Will the pricing in the cart update accordingly if I add the price to the title of each variant in Webflow?

In Webflow, the pricing in the cart does not update automatically if you simply add the price to the title of each variant. The cart in Webflow is powered by the Ecommerce feature, which requires specific setup to ensure the correct pricing is reflected in the cart.
To update the pricing in the cart accordingly, you need to follow these steps:
- Set up your products:
- Go to the Ecommerce section in the Webflow Designer.
- Create or import your products.
- Fill in the necessary details, including the price, SKU, and any variants.
- Configure your variants:
- If your product has variants (e.g., different sizes or colors), set them up by clicking on the "Variants" tab in the product settings.
- Specify the different options for each variant, such as size, color, or material.
- Assign separate prices to each variant by clicking on the "Options" tab and filling in the relevant details.
- Design your product page:
- Customize the design of your product page by adding elements and styling them to your liking.
- If you want to display the price next to each variant, you can manually include it in the design using a text or price element.
- Add the cart element:
- Drag and drop the "Cart" element from the Ecommerce section onto your page where you want the cart to appear.
- Customize the cart's appearance and settings using the options available in the right sidebar.
- Publish and test:
- Make sure to publish your site so that the Ecommerce functionality is active.
- Test the cart by adding products with different variants to it.
- Verify that the pricing updates correctly based on the selected variants.
By following these steps, you can ensure that the pricing in the cart will update accurately based on the variants you have set up. Remember that simply adding the price to the title of each variant will not dynamically update the cart's pricing, as the Ecommerce feature requires proper configuration to handle pricing and variant options.
