How do i access the wid of the Wishlist Products ?

Pit_La_Quille

Hello !

I added a button on every product of the page so the customer can add to his wishlist or remove the product from it.

I had no problem with the 'add' functionality but the delete one is different. It doesn't use the same id and i can't find a way to get this new one.

I thinks it's using a 'wid' wich is only reachable on the wishlist page but i need it on the category page.

So my question is, how can i get this 'wid' where i need it ?

Thanks in advance and have a nice day !

Hi @Pit_La_Quille

To add products the product/ variant ID is used but removing it uses the wishlist-ID. After a quick look at the theme editor variables and URL's I, unfortunately, do not see a way to retrieve the wid from the collection (or product) pages.

Hey,

Just curious, how did you manage to retrieve the Wid in the end?

We're trying something similar,

Best,

Hey,

the only way i find to retrieve those 'wid' is to use an httpRequest in JS so i can take all the items that are in the wishlist and use them.

I really don't think this is an optimize solution but Lightspeed never respond to me when i wanted to be a 'partner' and the wids are not free access soo...

Hope this helps ! Feel free to ask more questions if you want to do like i did !

Just as a follow up, since I had to do the same thing, here's a code sample of how you can get the wishlist using Javascript:

const result = await fetch('/account/wishlist/?format=json')

const data = await result.json()

console.log(data.wishlist)
