About WooCommerce Cart Fragments

WooCommerce “Cart Fragments” is a script using admin ajax to update the cart without refreshing the page. This functionality will slow down the speed of your site or break caching on pages that don’t actually require cart information.

For example, Cart Fragments on static posts, pages, custom post types and feed pages that contain no eCommerce functionality will decrease cacheability and ultimately degrade server performance.

You can identify the Cart Fragments using a web page speed test, or on your site’s Access Log with the following query argument added to your domain:

wc-ajax=get_refreshed_fragments
