Add Pre-Order option to DAWN Theme

[DB19]

Dear all,

I have looked at previous thread outlining how to change the main product liquid file to do this on here:
https://community.shopify.com/c/shopify-design/pre-order-text-on-out-of-stock-items/m-p/2776760

However, for whatever reason I cannot find the "Add to Cart" section in my product liquid file.

Can anyone advise please?

Thank you!

Hi @DB19,

• Go to Online Store > Themes.
• Click Actions > Edit Code.
• In the left-hand panel, look for the Snippets folder.
• Find the file named buy-button.liquid and open it.

Thank you very much! I found it! How do I edit it in order to "activate" the Pre-Order Button?

If this will apply to ALL products just edit the wording:

💣Always backup themes before modifying files.

Otherwise it's customizing in buy-buttons.liquid snippet, or other advanced theme customizations.

If you need this customization for your business logic then contact me for services.

ALWAYS please provide context, examples: store url, theme name, post url(s) , or any further detail in ALL correspondence.

@DB19 Curious - any reason why you wouldn't want to use a preorder app to do this?

It's a lot faster and easier to do it, and you can avoid any pain in updating your theme versions (customizations don't carry over). We run a Preorder & Back in stock alerts app - STOQ - and it's super easy to set things up with us. Happy to help you out end-to-end if you'd like!
