Description
Disable Cart Fragments is a lightweight plugin which effectively speeds up your WooCommerce website by disabling the cart fragments script. It also enqueues the script back when the cart is not empty anymore; so it only works while the cart is empty.
Why is disabling cart fragments important?
WooCommerce makes an AJAX request to check your cart and update your cart totals in wherever your theme shows cart contents (like the header menu). This AJAX call is made to override caching plugins, which is good, but it generally takes time.
How does Disable Cart Fragments solve the issue?
With our plugin, you have the best of both worlds: You keep using the caching plugin and you still get to update the cart totals when the cart is not empty. This check is made via WooCommerce cart cookies, so it still employs JavaScript but doesn’t rely on slow AJAX requests. The check is made instantly, whether you’re using a caching plugin or not. How cool is that?

Changelog
2.0
- Turns out WordPress thinks v1.21 is “newer” than 1.4 – kind of makes sense; we should’ve made v1.21 as v1.2.1. Anyway, we’re releasing v2.0 which is the same as v1.4 but this will set the record straight and people using v1.21 will get updates this time.
1.4
- Tested up to WordPress’s and WooCommerce’s latest versions.
- Fixed non-dismissible notice.
- New uninstall.php.
1.21
- Forgot to change the version name in the PHP file… (sigh)
1.2
- Tested with WooCommerce v4.0.1.
- Changed dependancy of the cart fragments script from woommerce(.min).js to jquery.js.
1.01
