With version 1.5.0 we introduced the new Enquiry Cart & Basket feature. This allows your customers to use the standard WooCommerce Add to Cart functionality, but without the checkout process.
Instead of the checkout Process your customers will see a “Send Enquiry” button on the cart pages, where they can send you a message with all the products they have in their current cart.
Add to Enquiry Cart Button
Show the Add to Enquiry Cart button on single products with ease. Simply go into our plugin settings > Enquiry Cart. There enable the functionality and you can set a custom Add to Enquiry Cart button text.

Enquiry Cart / Basket & Form
The enquiry cart or basket contains the products, the user has selected for his enquiry. It shows product data like name, quantity, price (if enabled). Furthermore there are options to remove products, update the quantity and, most important, to send an enquiry.
![woocommerce enquiry cart example](https://www.welaunch.io/en/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2018/08/woocommerce-enquiry-cart-example-1024x405.webp)
The enquiry basket form, that opens, when you click the button, can contain any text or shortcode. We use a CF7 Contact Form here with a textarea named “products”. Our plugin automatically adds the products from the cart into the products textarea.

WooCommerce Enquiry Basket Settings
There are multiple options available for the new feature like enable / disable, set custom button and cart texts. You can also decide if you wan to open the enquiry modal, where you can use the cf7 shortcode, or you can link to a complete different page. Furthermore you can hide / show the price, SKU or Quantity within the enquiry cart.

If you use another form plugin, you may need to change the products name field within this settings. Inspect your form via Chrome inspector and search for the name field. Then enter this value into the Products Field Name.
Example Contact Form 7 below. Very important is the “products” field. We put the cart items into a field named products only.
<p>Your Name*<br /> [text* your-name] </p> <p>Your E-Mail*<br /> [email* your-email] </p> <p>Subject*<br /> [text* your-subject]</p> <p>Products*<br /> [textarea* products]</p> <p>Your Message<br /> [text your-message] </p> <p>[submit "Send"]</p>
How to phrase my question?
I think your product will be able to be used as my Free Gift Catalogue.
So if understand correctly it creates a product and joe blow can send a request on that product?
Is it possible to make it so that the gift has a quantity of say 5 as each enquiry on that product is made it reduces the stock level by 1?
The Real Person!
Well for your first question yes. You can use the enquiry request form for your gifts. However for your stock level issue, this is not possible and needs customizations.
You can install a min / max quantity plugin for example.

Sure variations are supported and work with the enquiry cart.
Hi We Launch,

Yes you can remove the cart icon. In most cases there is an option in your theme panel for this. Otherwise you can use custom CSS.
We use the Total WP theme – you can find that on codecanyon.

That of course depends on the form plugin you use, but beside that any captcha plugin is supported.

The Real Person!
Yes our plugin has a built in functionality to only show the enquiry button for out of stock products.
I want to change button enquiry style. How can I do that?
Hello,
I want to ask, if it’s possible to use your plugin “WooCommerce Product Catalog Mode & Enquiry Form” in scenario with two carts in website. We’d like to keep option to order some products (with standard WooCommerce functionality), and some product only to enquiry (as you plugin normally works with Contact Form 7). In this case, it would probably be ideal to have two separate carts configured. Would something like this be possible with your plugin?
Thank you,
Best regards
The Real Person!
We do not offer two carts. In your case we recommend you use the single product enquiry option and disable the enquiry cart, so the WooCommerce cart can still be used for ordering.
Which plugin is this talking about
Is it compatible with WPForms?
The Real Person!
Yes our plugin works with all WordPress form extensions
Hi Daniel, may I ask is it compatible with Hubspot form? I put the name tag for the field I want to fill in the product information but it didn’t show up
The Real Person!
With our plugin you are free to use any form that you want. So hubspot form should work too.
The Real Person!
