The “cart” feature is confusing to our patrons – many think that they can check out from there or that they have put an item on hold. We would like the ability to change the name of the “cart” feature or to add an explanation of this feature to the OPAC.
We have been down this road before: Bug 3719. Perhaps one alternative is a custom translation?
Why not add a title tag to the "Cart" link?
Created attachment 36002 [details] [review] Bug 11900 - OPAC cart can confuse patrons This patch adds a title tag to the "Cart" link on Opac main page (and to the "Lists" link as well). Wording should be verified by a native speaker :-) To test: Apply patch Go to OPAC main page, verify that a tooltip appears on the "Cart" and "Lists" links at the top of the page.
I hope it is OK to switch status to "Needs signoff"

After the patch was applied to master, the "tooltip"icon did not appear.
Hi Jesse, I tested again with IE 11, Firefox 35 and Chrome 40 on Windows 7 IE 11 and Firefox 36 on Windows 8.1 Iceweasel 24.7 on Debian All of them display the tooltips on the "Cart" and "List"-links on top of the OPAC page. Can you please re-test? - Please select "English" to test. Maybe you have to clear the caches. Thanks Marc Switching back to "Needs Signoff"

This is a step, but I do feel that we need a bit more because CART appears in many places and is not easy to change with jquery.
Patch pushed to master. Thanks Marc!
