Plugins / Header Account & Cart
Header Account & Cart
A “Hi, Name” account dropdown and a mini cart for your header. The cart only shows up when something is in it.
What it does
Your account and cart, right in the header.
Customers see their name, jump to orders or downloads in one click, and only see a cart when there is something in it.
Hi, Name greeting
A friendly account button with the customer’s first name, or Sign in for visitors.
Every account page
Orders, downloads, addresses and account details pulled straight from WooCommerce.
Your own links
Add links like a client portal, or hide account pages you do not use.
Cart only when needed
The mini cart appears once something is added, with a live count and total.
Live updates
Uses WooCommerce cart fragments, so it updates without a page reload.
Keyboard friendly
Opens with click or keyboard and closes with Escape or a click outside.

FAQ
Straight answers.
Does it need WooCommerce?
No. Without WooCommerce the menu shows Profile and Log Out, and the cart stays hidden.
Can I add my own links?
Yes. Add extra links, or hide any WooCommerce account page, in the settings.
Does the cart update without reloading?
Yes. It uses WooCommerce cart fragments, so the count and total update as soon as something is added.
How do updates work?
The plugin checks wpwizards.com for new versions and updates itself automatically, like any plugin from WordPress.org.
