Craft 2 Commerce 1 cart session expiry

Question

Is it possible to change the cookie timeout just for the cart? E.g. I'd like to clear abandoned carts after X hours and keep all the other sessions untouched (e.g. user sessions etc).

Please advise anyone!

Answer 1

Create a commerce.php config file in your config folder and set the cartCookieDuration to a time interval. The default is 3 months.

<?php
return [
    'cartCookieDuration' => 'P3M',
    'purgeInactiveCarts' => true,
    'purgeInactiveCartsDuration' => 'P3M',
];
