CartCubes Multi-step Checkout for FluentCart

Setup Guide

Activate the license, turn on Enable Multi-step Checkout, tune the steps, then open the FluentCart checkout page you already have. No new block or shortcode.

Start here if you have not split checkout yet. The screenshots below are the same ones used on the other tabs, in the order a merchant actually sets things up.

  • License first: Storefront classes stay unloaded until the license is active, unless you are on a local QA install.
  • One toggle: Enable Multi-step Checkout is the master switch. Off restores FluentCart's single-page checkout instantly.
  • Existing checkout page: Works with the fluent-cart/checkout block and the [fluent_cart_checkout] shortcode. Nothing new is added to the page.
  • Fixed step order: Information, then Shipping (when shown), then Payment, then optional Review. Labels can be renamed. Steps cannot be reordered or added.
