Unfortunately I could not get cart66 to work so my plan B was to build it with eshop for now but bring the cart66 store pages on line if the issue is resolved. The cart is empty cart 66 error rpersists but eshop works with my gantry based theme. Cart66 support identified the problem as follows.

“They are not calling the wp_footer() function which is required for Cart66 to work properly…..
When building a WordPress theme, generally you have a footer.php page which includes this function. The theme framework you are using has its own function that prints out scripts etc, but does not utilize the wp_footer function itself”

They said they have other gantry users who are having this issue because the theme developer does not include the wp_footer() function.

The theme developers are ltroubleshooting the problem now. I rolled back 2 earlier versions of cart66 liite on a WP 3.5.1 test sitevand got the same cart empty error for both earlier versions. i thought about rolling back to the earlier version of WP but I would be just postponing the inevitable since I would eventually update WP.

You can still get to my cart66 store at Trajikworld.com/store . The store pages accessible from the main menu were built with the eshop WP plugin. They take the visitor to …/shop . Now the theme developers are looking into the issue with the footer function.

Good idea. I upgraded to WordPress 3.5.1 and immediately started getting the cart empty error. I am using the Gantry framework too. If I switch to WordPress 2012 the problem is fixed. If I revert back to my Gantry-based theme, the problem reoccurs. The cart 66 error log message I get is a no session id as required by a function in the cart66sessionDb.php file. I tried another gantry theme – same problem. I will rollback to an earlier version of cart 66 to see if this works for me.

SOLVED. added the following code to the style5.css to change the background color of the input box and border width.

‘#mc_signup_form .mc_input { background-color: #212121;border: 1px solid #FF8C00;}’

Thank you for a quick and clear answer. that worked! I see now that I had mistyped the color property for the text so I modified the text color and border for the submit button by adding to your code as follows”
‘/*mailchimp*/

.mc_signup_submit input{
background-color:#212121;color:#FF8C00; border: 3px solid #FF8C00;
}’
there are two parts to my question the second being how to modify the background color of the input box. It is white now but I’d like to change it to a color that better matches my theme. Thank you.

Thanks for the info. I am using the ipad app now.

Did you get a fix for this? I cannot drag widgets or scroll in the pist text box.

The problem with creating and editing posts on your iPad persists. The most annoying of which is scroll does not function in the post text box. If I want to edit a post i cut and paste it from WP into Pages then copy and paste the edited post back into the WP post text box. If there’s a fix on the way, it cannot come soon enough for me.
