Add Icon in the Add to Cart Button at the Product Page

Topic summary

A user wants to add a custom icon to the “Add to Cart” button on their Shopify product page.

Solution Provided:

A developer outlined the following steps:

  • Navigate to Dashboard → Online Store → Themes → Edit Code
  • Locate and open the main-product file
  • Search for the buy_buttons section
  • Insert provided code snippet that creates a dropdown selector for icon options

Available Icon Options:

The code includes multiple pre-defined icon choices such as:

  • none, apple, banana, bottle, box, carrot
  • chat_bubble, check_mark, price_tag, question_mark
  • recycle, return, paw_print, pants, nut_free
  • pepper, perfume, plane, plant, and others

The solution involves editing Liquid template files and adding a settings schema that allows icon selection through the theme customizer. Screenshots were provided showing the exact code placement location. This customization requires basic familiarity with Shopify’s theme code structure.
