Coming Soon Products

[Bandtees]

Hi, 

I'm looking to add a 'Coming Soon' title to my products as shown below (may also be below the product). After doing quite some research I haven't been able to find a solution.

Hey, @Bandtees 

A simple solution would be to add [Coming Soon] to the product's titles, or photoshop the text on top of the product image itself. 

If you would like to have this text coded in, our theme support team can assist by using the design time on your account! You can learn more about design time here.

If you would like to utilize some of your design time, we’d be happy to continue assisting you through live chat, email, or callback. Please visit our Help Center and log in to your account to create a support request.

Hope this helps!

Hi Elle,

Thank you for your suggestions.

While photoshopping it on is a solution - how would I go about people not able to order it yet?

Best,
Joshua

Hey, @Bandtees 

I would recommend enabling the option for Shopify to track your inventory, and then set the inventory to 0 so it cannot be purchased. 

When inventory is set to 0, most themes will display a sold out badge! To change the sold out badge to 'coming soon', head to your theme's language editor (Online store > Themes > Actions > Edit languages) and search for 'Sold out'. From there, you can change the text. 

Let me know if this helps!

Hi again!

While that sounds like a fantastic suggestion - my store relies on items being ‘Sold out’ since we sell 1/1 products. Changing the ‘Sold out’ badge to ‘Coming soon’ will change all my previously sold items to ‘Coming soon’.

Hi, @Bandtees 

Thanks for letting me know!

By using your design time, our Theme Support team should be able to help add an additional badge for products that are 'Coming Soon'! 

Alternatively, there are apps for pre-orders you can consider here.
