Hello I was advised to post my request here.

Here’s my request:

Currently I’m using the ADVANCED HEADER TYPE what I want to do is add the SIGNIN/MYACCOUNT icon before the cart button.
see image to better understand –

I’m sure that’s very possible, I just don’t know which file I need to edit.

Thank You

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

I forgot to mention that it would be better if instead of text it will be an icon. e.g if person is not logged in use e.g fontawesome register/sign in icon, then if the person is logged in use the head like icon.

Thanks!

Hello,

You can edit header structure file depending on header type that you use, in your case, it is xstore/headers/advanced.php. Do all the changes in child theme files.

Add this code in functions.php file of child theme:
```
function etheme_shop_navbar( $location = 'header', $exclude = array(), $force = false ) {

    	$args['wishlist'] = ( ! in_array( 'wishlist', $exclude ) && etheme_woocommerce_installed() && etheme_get_option( 'top_wishlist_widget' ) == $location ) ? true : false ;
		$args['search'] = ( ! in_array( 'search', $exclude ) && etheme_get_option( 'search_form' ) == $location ) ? true : false;
		$args['cart'] = ( ! in_array( 'cart', $exclude ) && etheme_woocommerce_installed() && ! etheme_get_option( 'just_catalog' ) && etheme_get_option( 'cart_widget' ) == $location ) ? true : false ;

    	if ( ! $args['wishlist'] && ! $args['search'] && ! $args['cart'] && ! $force ) return;

   		do_action( 'etheme_before_shop_navbar' );

		echo '<div class="navbar-header show-in-' . $location . '">';
			echo '<a href="'.get_permalink( get_option('woocommerce_myaccount_page_id') ).'">';
			if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { 
				echo '<i class="fa fa-user" aria-hidden="true"></i>';
			}
			else {
				echo 'Sing in or create account';
			}
			echo '</a>';
			if( $args['search'] ) etheme_search_form();
			if( $args['wishlist'] ) etheme_wishlist_widget();
			if( $args['cart'] ) etheme_top_cart();
		echo '</div>';

		do_action( 'etheme_after_shop_navbar' );

    }
```

I’m using v4.21 is that the latest? I do not see any update on my backend, also as of now, my website is hosted on a local development so it’s not yet online.

Btw, on your demo when you hover the mouse does it works, the drop down links?

This line of code – echo ‘‘;

Is it not this code only suppose to output the url for the wocommerce account, and it’s not similar to the sign in link on the header that involves other links when mouse is hovered?

Thank You so much for your patience, I really appreciate it.

Hello,

Sorry, but it is a bit difficult to help you without the possibility to see your site. Could you please contact us once you move the site to live server?
Also, soon (within a few days) will be released a new theme update, where we are planning to add more options for the header so maybe the desired result will be achieved on our site without customization only using Theme Options.
