Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Scope of Work:
The project involves diagnosing and resolving multiple issues on the WooCommerce checkout and cart functionality within a website using the Flatsome theme. The primary goal is to ensure a seamless checkout experience and prevent disruptions caused by errors or caching problems.

Key Issues to Address:
Checkout (Ship/Pickup) Selection Issue

Currently, when a user changes the shipping method from the initially selected option ("Ship" or "Pickup") and clicks "Place Order," the page reloads to the top and prevents the purchase from proceeding.
Expected Fix: Users should be able to switch between shipping methods smoothly without the page reloading or blocking the purchase.

429 Too Many Requests Error

The website intermittently encounters a 429 Too Many Requests error, which may affect checkout, cart functionality, or overall performance.
Expected Fix: Identify the cause of the 429 error (server settings) and implement a solution to prevent it from occurring.

Disappearing Products from the Cart

When users add a product to the cart, it sometimes disappears unexpectedly, likely due to caching issues.
Steps to Reproduce: Navigate to a product page.
Select a product and add it to the cart.
Observe – the product appears in the cart but later disappears.
Expected Fix: Ensure products remain in the cart consistently without disappearing after being added.
Key Deliverables:
Checkout Process Fix:

Ensure users can switch between "Ship" and "Pickup" without experiencing a page reload or checkout failure.

429 Error Resolution:

Identify the root cause of the 429 Too Many Requests error and implement a fix to prevent it from affecting user experience.

Cart Functionality Fix:

Ensure products remain in the cart after being added, even if caching is enabled.
Implement necessary adjustments to WooCommerce, caching settings, or plugins to maintain cart persistence.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

1. Checkout Process Improvement
Success Metric: Users can switch between "Ship" and "Pickup" options without the page reloading or blocking the purchase.

Before: Changing the shipping option caused a page reload and prevented order completion.

2. Resolution of the 429 Too Many Requests Error

Success Metric: No occurrences of the 429 error under normal usage.

Before: Users experienced rate-limiting issues, affecting site functionality.
After: The issue is eliminated or significantly reduced based on monitoring logs and user testing.

3. Cart Functionality Stability

4. User Experience & Order Completion Rate

Before: Users were unable to complete purchases due to checkout and cart issues.
After: Higher completion rates of orders with minimal checkout errors.

5. Performance & Reliability Monitoring

Regular Testing: Orders tested in different conditions to confirm sustained improvements.
User Feedback: No significant complaints related to checkout, cart, or errors.
