I am trying to: create a child post link to create a CPT and used CRED API add to cart

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link and click on: new Booking as a child post link -> which goes to a separate page with a url parameter to the parent post.

I expected to see: an item in the cart with number of days replaced the quantity

Instead, I got: empty cart

Hello,

The problem you mentioned above is abnormal:

1) You should submit the Toolset form by clicking a submit button, it should not be a link

2) According to your form setting:
hidden link
After submit the form, it should redirect you to checkout page, and add product "Booking" to the cart, none of them working in your website.

In case it is a compatibility problem, please check these in your website:
1) Deactivate plugins and switch to wordpress default theme, Follow our document to setup a fresh Tooslet form(without your custom CSS/JS codes):
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/using-cred-commerce-to-add-payments-to-forms/
Using Toolset Forms Commerce to Add Payments to Forms

2) If you want to change the product in cart dynamically, please try the filter hook cred_commerce_add_product_to_cart:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-commerce-api/#cred_commerce_add_product_to_cart
Filter that allows to dynamically alter the product associated with a CRED Commerce form, when adding to cart.
