How to clear a Woocommerce cart

I am wondering how you can clear the contents of your cart on page load using woocommerce.

I came accross how to add a clear cart button using by adding this in to functions.php

add_action( 'init', 'woocommerce_clear_cart_url' );
function woocommerce_clear_cart_url() {
  global $woocommerce;

    if ( isset( $_GET['empty-cart'] ) ) {
        $woocommerce->cart->empty_cart(); 
    }
}

But I was wondering how I'd go about triggering this on say, page load of the home page (if you could specifiy the exact page that would be great, but even the home page would be useful)

Any ideas? Thanks!

None of the codes above works on my website. I test it in the latest WordPress version 5.4.1 and the below function works perfectly!

/**
Clears WC Cart on Page Load
(Only when not on cart/checkout page)
*/

add_action( 'wp_head', 'wc_clear_cart' );
function wc_clear_cart() {
    if ( wc_get_page_id( 'cart' ) == get_the_ID() || wc_get_page_id( 'checkout' ) == get_the_ID() ) {
        return;
    }
    WC()->cart->empty_cart( true );
}

The updated version of this would be :

WC()->cart->empty_cart();

You can simply call this WooCommerce core functions:

WC()->cart->empty_cart();

To clear cart session:

WC()->session->set('cart', array());

None of the above codes worked on my Wordpress installation (4.9.6). So, I changed the add_action and removed the variable request and went directly to run.

Now my Woocommerce plugin clears products to cart once user exits checkout page without any duplicate errors. Thank you everyone for your help

add_action( 'woocommerce_add_cart_item_data', 'woocommerce_clear_cart_url' );

function woocommerce_clear_cart_url() {

    global $woocommerce;
    $woocommerce->cart->empty_cart();
}

Try this. I hope it will help you.

add_action( 'init', 'woocommerce_clear_cart_url' );
function woocommerce_clear_cart_url() {
  global $woocommerce;

  if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '/checkout')  <  0 ) 
  {
         $woocommerce->cart->empty_cart();
  }
}

the above didnt worked for me so i needed something that dont relies on WordPress conditional:

/*empty cart if user come to homepage*/
add_action( 'init', 'woocommerce_clear_cart_url' );
function woocommerce_clear_cart_url() {
global $woocommerce;

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] === '/') { 
    $woocommerce->cart->empty_cart(); 
 }
}

For triggering only on front page your function needs to look like this:

add_action( 'init', 'woocommerce_clear_cart_url' );
function woocommerce_clear_cart_url() {
  global $woocommerce;

    if ( is_front_page() && isset( $_GET['empty-cart'] ) ) { 
        $woocommerce->cart->empty_cart(); 
    }
}

function is_front_page() returns true only on front page of your wordpress site. Also, you might detect any other page with function is_page() where you can pass any page title, ID or slug
