I'm trying to figure out how can we post a message and disable place order when a specific product from a list of 6 products IDs is not added to cart. Any ideas? Thank you
If i want to change the behavior at checkout as seen on line 22-27, how do I do that? I want to redirect to a different URL. I have tried replacing 22-27 with;
if ( sv_wc_is_category_alone_in_cart( $category ) ) {
// render a notice to explain why checkout is blocked
wp_redirect( 'example.com' );
exit();
}
However it doesnt seem to work. Im new at this so any help would be appreciated

Great, this cart checking is so much better than https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/minimum-order-amount/
