Please can someone help with this.

 

I am not using Shopify Payments on my store, instead, I linked Paystack and PayPal Express

 

Now I I want to change the BUY IT NOW button on my website to PRE-ORDER NOW 

 

So I got to see a code I could add to the store to change it 

 

But the moment I also added PayPal, I began to see PayPal button in place of Buy it Now button

 

But I want it to show PRE-ORDER IT NOW instead 

 

The code I saw in this community has Shopify Payments in it 

 

When I added it, the button keep fluctuating between showing PRE-ORDER IT NOW and PAYPAL.

 

Please what code can I add to make the PRE-ORDER IT NOW permanent without showing PAYPAL button at all.

 

My website is springstiches.co

@realpyinks The "Buy it now" button is controlled by Shopify in many ways, as it's a dynamic button. I wouldn't recommend changing it at all. Instead, what you should consider doing is - 

 

1. Set up a product page template to change the "Add to cart" button to "Preorder" and hide the Buy it now button using CSS, or

2. Use a preorder app to automatically do both for you.

I run a preorder & back-in-stock alerts app with my team - STOQ - and we have many mechanisms and settings built in to make it super easy for you to sell preorders. All you need to do is tell what products you want to sell as preorders, and how you want to ship + collect payment. There's no code changes required, so that also makes it easy for you to upgrade your theme to new versions and make it easier to manage your store in the long term.

With a preorder app, you also get the benefit of collecting partial payments, configuring fulfillments in unique ways and using Notify me button to bring even more sales to your business through back in stock alerts too.
