A place for conversations about ecommerce learning and development on Shopify, and our educational hubs like Shopify Academy.
Im working through the academy tutorial and have been stuck on seeing the buttons render on the page.

The settings show up in the theme editor, just can't see the buttons on the live page

Hi
I was experiencing the same problem and after a lot of head scratching and a bit of digging, I discovered that these buttons will only render if you are viewing your product from within a collection, i.e. through the default collection template in the customizer, or by navigating to, your-store.myshopify.com/collections/collection-name. By default you have these two in the Ride theme, automated-collection and hydrogen.
After re-reading the instructions this is implied;
```
'When buyers click this link, they'll be taken to the card_product's product page, but within the context of a particular collection."
```
@JasonH It might be helpful to stress this vital point in the exercise instructions.
I hope this helps anyone else experiencing the same frustrations.

JasonH,
I am having the same issue. "Liquid activity lab:
Add product navigation buttons" exercise - followed instructions exactly but navigation buttons do not appear. In the code inspector, I can see the container div but the code to generate the buttons is missing. Seems like something is missing from the tutorial.
Hi @lhanse,
Thank you for taking the time to run with the suggestions.
To investigate further, I can use some help from your side. Can you share a video that replicates this issue you're experiencing?
Please make sure the video includes the following details:
Thanks!

Hi @walkonmars
I was able to add the navigation buttons without issues. However, thank you for highlighting the instructions; they can serve as a helpful reminder when learners are checking the rendered buttons.
I've marked your reply as the solution.
