    Hi!

    I think I have a rather basic question; I am using Magazine pro together with woocommerce. The default layout of the cart and checkout page is that the contents of the page is stacked ontop of eachoter and I would like for instance to move the Cart totals to be next to the cart contents to the right instead of below. How do I go about adjusting this in the template file so that I do not break any responsiveness...? the tutorials I find googling just tells me how to create templates and adding text and new content to the templates, not moving something, so I´m stuck!

    I´m not keen on buying plugins since I want to at least gather some knowledge even if I am not a programmer!

    thanks in advance!

    There is a set of templates in the WooCommerce plugin folder that can be customized to your liking. They are in the WooCommerce/Templates directory. What you need to do is create a directory called WooCommerce in your child theme directory and copy whatever templates you want to customize into that directory. The customized templates override the WooCommerce templates. There are details here: http://docs.woothemes.com/document/template-structure/

    Hi Victor!

    Thanks for answering! I´m on top of the creating template deal and adding/changing text, but when it comes to changing the actual layout, like making two columns (? not sure if that is what I need to do 🙂 ) I´m lost.... you have any additional pointers to give me?

    Thanks again!

    Hi again!

    ok so I managed to adjust the layout of the cart via CSS where I set the width to 75% on the conents table and float: left, and the total table to have width 25% and float: right. Some additional styling and it looks ok but, it´s not responsive, hence the total doesn´t move to be below the content when using a smaller screen, both are next to each other untill one point where the total table moves below the content table but of course it floates right and is still 25%. Any way to come around this?

    Thanks for any help!

    Add your CSS to a Media Query and modify it there so each column displays 100% at a specific screen width. Change the 680px to anything you like:

    @media only screen and (max-width: 680px) {
    
    	Your CSS
    
    }
