Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

Original poster wants to place a “profile/account” icon next to the cart icon in the Shopify Sense theme header, linking it to their existing customer account page URL.

Key points:

  • Goal: Add an account icon in the header and have it redirect to the account (login/register) page.
  • Context: Sense is a Shopify theme; the request likely involves editing theme code (header/navigation).

Responses and actions:

  • Multiple responders state this requires code changes and request the store URL and, if applicable, the storefront password to review and implement.
  • Offers to assist via a Shopify collaborator request (granting developer access) if the requester is not comfortable editing code.

Current status:

  • No public code or step-by-step solution shared yet.
  • Awaiting the store details or collaborator access to proceed. Discussion remains open/unresolved.

Hello, @erickclarivet Please share you store URL and password if protected.
It has some code changes if you are not aware of code then don’t hesitate to send me a collaborator request.
