Adding a buy now button - dawn theme

Topic summary

Goal: Add a standalone “Buy Now” button in the Dawn theme between “Add to cart” and the PayPal dynamic checkout button.

Context: Enabling PayPal replaced the theme’s native Buy Now with PayPal’s dynamic checkout (accelerated checkout). A reference image was shared to show desired placement.

Clarifications: A contributor asked whether products have variants and a quantity selector. The original poster confirmed both, and shared store URL and password for review.

Proposed approach: Another participant advised completely replacing the dynamic checkout code with a custom Buy Now button and adding the necessary JavaScript for functionality. They offered to join as a collaborator to implement/check this.

Next steps: Awaiting delivery of the required script and step-by-step instructions based on the confirmed setup; collaboration offer pending acceptance.

Status: No code or implementation details have been provided yet; discussion remains open.

Notes: The attached image is relevant to understanding the button placement. “Dynamic checkout” refers to Shopify’s accelerated checkout (e.g., PayPal) that can override the standard Buy Now in Dawn.

My store has paypal enabled and this replaced my buy now button with paypal dynamic checkout button.

I have searched all around and i couldn’t find a solution where i can customize the paypal button to buy now button.

Now is there any way i can add another buy now button in between the add to cart and paypal button ?

I’m adding a reference pic below.

Hi Xakhil,

I’m happy to assist you! To help us understand your store setup better, could you please confirm if there are variants available for any of your products? Since we’re building a custom checkout button, we need to add specific scripts and the button itself for everything to function correctly.

Please also let us know if you have a quantity selector on your product pages.

Once we have this information, we can provide you with the required script and instructions.

Looking forward to your response!

Regards,

Sweans

Hi @Xakhil ,

You will need to completely replace the dynamic checkout code with the Buy Now button and add JS for it to work.

Can I send you a collaborator invite? it will help me check and add this
