I have been messing around trying to get the Shopping Cart text message "Drag and drop your item here" to remain when on the Item Details page. In its default state it does not show on this page.
I haven't been able to alter the cartinfo file(s) yet to produce the desired result.
Do you mean you are trying to add this text to the shopping cart when viewing an actual item page (after clicking on the "Details" link for an item so that the page just shows the details for that specific item)? If so, it is unfortunately not possible to drag and drop the item into the shopping cart from this page. The buyer would need to use the "Add to cart" link from here instead.
Thank you for the additional information. You should be able to change this text by going to your Template Editor. Then select "Items Page" from the drop-down box at the top center of the page. Then put your mouse over the current text (your cart is empty) and select "Edit Content". Change the text to appear how you would like and save and publish your changes. Please let us know should you continue to have trouble with this.

I'm talking about the "Item Details Page," not the "Items Page."
The text I'm talking about, that is missing on the "Item Details Page," would be the "Drag and drop your item here" text area, not the "your cart is empty" text area.
There is no text allowed in that section at the "Item Details Page" level in the default state, as there is only supposed to be one Vendio generated item listed on it.
I am manually adding companion Items by adding html code to the Items ItemInfo>ItemDescription block, which mimics a mini "Items Page" layout in the Info box.
This way you get the regular Vendio generated Item, plus suggested Items. You can take these suggested Items, and drag them to the cart on this screen, and then click the "Add to Cart" button to add the main Item. I would like to keep the Drag'n Drop reminder up there.
I was just looking to see if anyone else had altered the code in the correct way to allow the same text to pop up on this screen that does on all the others.
I have been messing with it, but am missing something. I'm still getting use to the coding/sorting system used.
Please let us know what text is currently showing where you would like it to show "Drag and drop your item here". The instructions that I provided you with earlier were for editing the text that shows in the shopping cart area for the individual item details pages, when no item has yet been added to the cart.

There is no text on the "Items Details Page" regardless of the carts content to change in the widget.
The text "Drag and drop your item here" is displayed in the shopping-cart widget on every other page.
It isn't on this generated page, as it is not possible to drag and drop on a stock page. You have to hit the "Add to cart" link.
With my custom work around you can use the drag and drop function on the extra Items I have showing on this page.
In order to add the text option, there would need to be a change in the widget html coding. I have played with it, but I'm missing something somewhere. I'll get it eventually. I'm just having a hard time finding the time to sort though the API.
