Pre-order in Symmetry Theme

[varrolondon]

Hey all, 

A while ago i managed to add a pre-order product template to my shopify symmetry theme and any product attached to that template has a pre-order option. I need to make a new pre-order product template but when i do i can't remember how i managed to make all those products connected to that theme have the pre-order option. I'm not using an app and i know that the theme says it has a pre-order option when i bought it. 

See images here. 


Anyone know what i'm missing?

Thanks in advance

Milo

Hey! @varrolondon,

Hi Milo, sounds like your original pre-order setup was likely controlled by conditional logic in your `product.pre-order.liquid` or similar product template, where it showed a "Pre-Order" button instead of the usual "Add to Cart" based on either product tags (like `pre-order`) or product availability settings. When creating your new template, make sure to replicate that logic—check for custom conditions in your old pre-order template’s code (usually in the `main-product.liquid` or `product-form.liquid`) and apply the same conditions or snippets to your new template. That’s likely the key part you’re missing.

Hi @varrolondon 👋 just apply the alternate template to the products in the products admin.

Either individually or using the bulk editor.

Spend a weekend stepping through reading the friendly manual it will save a ton of time and confusion instead of trying to approach everything piecemeal without understanding of the tool your business is built on.
