✂️

You might not need this plugin. Its core job is small enough to live in your theme's functions.php.

Show the snippet

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', function() {
    if ( ! WC()->cart || WC()->cart->is_empty() ) {
        wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-cart-fragments' );
    }
}, 11 );

Keep in mind:The plugin re-enqueues cart fragments via a cookie check rather than a PHP cart check, which is more cache-friendly; this snippet uses a PHP-side check instead.
