How to Keep the 'Add to Cart' Button Text from Changing to 'View Cart' in Neve

By default, WooCommerce automatically changes the Add to Cart button label to View Cart after a product is added to the cart. This is standard WooCommerce behavior and is not controlled by Neve. There is no built-in theme option to prevent this change, but you can override it using custom CSS.

📝 Note: This behavior is part of WooCommerce core, not the Neve theme. The CSS workaround below applies to Neve and most WooCommerce-compatible themes.

Add Custom CSS to Keep the Button Text Persistent

You can prevent the button from showing View Cart by hiding the link WooCommerce adds after a product is placed in the cart, so only the original Add to Cart button remains visible.

  1. Navigate to Appearance > Customize in your WordPress dashboard.
  2. Click Additional CSS at the bottom of the left panel.
  3. Paste the following CSS:
css
.added_to_cart {
    display: none !important;
}
  1. Click Publish to save your changes.

This hides the View Cart link that WooCommerce inserts next to the button after a product is added, so the Add to Cart button continues to appear as the primary call to action on the shop page.

💡 Tip: If you are using a child theme, you can also add the CSS to your child theme's style.css file for better portability.

Verify the Change

  1. Open your shop page in a browser.
  2. Add any product to the cart.
  3. Confirm that the button still displays Add to Cart and no View Cart link appears next to it.

⚠️ Note: If you are using the WooCommerce Booster module or a custom loop template, the button markup may differ. In that case, inspect the button using your browser's developer tools and adjust the CSS selector as needed.
