A simple tool to create a url to provide customers to add to cart
This tutorial code requires a little bit of copy and paste in your Shopify backend to make it work but should take about 5 minutes no more.
For a visual overview and full details, see our article at https://onescales.com/blogs/main/shopify-add-to-cart and our youtube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9DC631wYuU
- Login to Shopify Backend
- Customize your theme and add a new "page template" called "Add to Cart" based on "Default Page".
- In this "Add to Cart" page template add a new section called "Custom Liquid" and copy the code from https://github.com/onescales/shopify-add-to-cart/blob/main/add-to-cart.liquid and save.
- Create New Page (for example - Add to Cart) and Select "theme template" "Add to Cart"
- Visit "Add to Cart" page and use the form to get a url of your cart
- Checkbox the product you want to add to cart for and specify the quantity. Note you will be able to select only 1 product for the tool to work.
- Click on "Build URL".
- Grab either the QR code or the url via copy and provide to your customers. Note you can right click and "save as image" the qr code to use later.
- Start Using It. Enjoy!
- Currently limited to 1000 products. If you have more than 1000 products in your catalog, you will need to customize code on your end.
- If customer had an existing cart already, it will add to the cart.
- Note that the above instructions are to create a new page and add liquid code. These instructions will create a public live page which some of you probably don't want to showcase to the world so you will have to add a password to it or use the liquid in this repo to do it in your own protected way. You can also make visibility "hidden" and use it as a logged in admin by clicking on view page button.
- QR Code generated is using quickchart.io
- All code and instructions are as is. By reading this repository, readme or any code, you acknowledge that you are solely responsible for your own doings.
