Will there be 3 winners like previous challenges or only 1 winner for this project because having only 1 winner doesn't seem fair.. 🙏

Jess Lee • Jun 26

@dailydev there will only be one winner for this Wix Challenge 😉

Hey @anthonywix ,

I'm facing an issue with my Wix custom cart implementation. Specifically, I'm getting the error:
(0 , backend_cart_web_js_WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0_.getCart) is not a function
this is my code->
Backend (cart.web.js):

import { currentCart } from "wix-ecom-backend";

export async function getCart() {
  try {
      const myCurrentCart = await currentCart.getCurrentCart();
      console.log("Success! Retrieved current cart:", myCurrentCart);
      return myCurrentCart;
    } catch (error) {
      console.error(error);

    }
};

Frontend (CustomCart.jofsl.js):

import { getCart } from "backend/cart.web.js";
$w.onReady(function () {
populateCartItems();
});

async function populateCartItems(){
    const cart = await getCart();
    const {lineItems} = cart;

    $w("#lineItemsRepeater").onItemReady(($item,itemData) =>{
        $item("#productName").text = itemData.productName.original;
        $item("#image").src = itemData.image;
        $item("#price").text = itemData.price.formattedAmount;
    }
    )
    $w('#lineItemsRepeater').data = lineItems;
}

Could you help me identify why getCart is not being recognized as a function? I also use wix AI assistant but nothing came up.

Functions exported in web modules need to be constructed with a call to webMethod. For example:

import { Permissions, webMethod } from "wix-web-module";

export const multiply = webMethod(
  Permissions.Anyone, 
  () => { 
    const test = "test";
    return test;
  }
);

You can learn more about this here: dev.wix.com/docs/develop-websites/...

Hi @anthonywix @jess I had a doubt regarding wix stores I was using it to display data onto my custom product page using its store->Product collection and I am not using its templates so do we have to build our own collection or can we use its prexisting collection for contest.

Anthony L • Jul 1 • Edited

Hey @dailydev you can still use Wix Apps and all their collections and pre-configuration. By not being able to use templates we mean only the visual design templates presented when you first start a new site.

Aditya Gupta • Jul 1

Got it Thanks ! for solving doubt In fact I am using the same approach you mentioned :)

Heyy @anthonywix I was kinda setting up Reset Password Feature for my Login Form using this link But this only works for site members Is there any other way in using velo through which I can reset password if I am non member ?

Anthony L • Jul 8

If a user is a non-member then they wouldn't have an account to reset a password for. Perhaps direct them to a signup page instead?

The wix-members-backend API will contain all the functionality for managing user logins including the ability to send them a set password link although this will only work on members. dev.wix.com/docs/velo/api-referenc...

You're free to use the Wix Members app on your website.

Aditya Gupta • Jul 8

Yeah I spelled it wrong Instead I wanted to send the email to reset password for a User who forgot his password for login and he is already a site member as he had already registered in the site and it stores its password. Ig there is no api to implement this feature for now still Thanks for the help ;) !

Anthony L • Jul 8 • Edited

That is what the sendSetPasswordEmail() function does. It'll send an email like this:

ok 👍

David Adeaga • Jun 27

This is interesting

Fraser Young • Jun 26

Looks like fun

Everly Precia Suresh • Jun 27

Are we allowed to use wix templates? or do we have to build everything from scratch

Anthony L • Jun 27 • Edited

Hey @everlygif great question! Everything should be built from scratch for this competition.

@anthonywix I tried the Velo API and API seems to be limiting functionalities. There is no option to select elements by className or addEventListners? A lot of existing JS functions seems to have been removed making it harder to develop the unique experience.

Is there something I am missing?
