Adding Color Swatches to the Venture Theme?

Hi Friends. I added the color swatches to the files and added the code to the liquid file. I have the squares where the color swatches should be, except there is no color in the swatches. Just white squares. So one step closer but still not right. Hoping someone can help. Thanks in advance!

Hi @ApexMotors ,

Please send me the code of color swatches files. I will check it for you.

Hello @LitExtension . I appreciate your response! I think that’s what my problem is. The only way I can seem to upload the color Gif files to Shopify is to upload them all separate. I feel like for the code to work, I would need to upload the whole file with all color gifs together, and then use that link. But not sure how to do that. This is one of the many colors I have in the files now. Its Oxblood and only used for one of my products.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi @ApexMotors ,

I checked and your code shows variants only with images uploaded in Assets. For example ‘Twice Cut’ you need to upload an image named ‘twicecut.gif’ in Assets, it will display fine.

If you don’t want to do this I can help you to change the code and it will show variants images instead of upload images. Please send me the code of color swatches files. I will check it for you.

With the current code, you are required to upload all images in Assets.

Hope it is clear to you.

Im not sure where to even load the assets up… lol. I went to settings, files, and the clicked upload files. I had to upload each gif individually instead of just one file with all the colors in the file. But are you saying you could have the actual variant images on the collections product page? Like instead of the color swatches, actually have the products? Thats something I’m interested in for sure. I really appreciate your help with this. @LitExtension

Hi @ApexMotors ,

Yes, instead of uploading color images one by one, I will help you to show the actual images of the variants.

Please send me the code of color swatches files. I will check it for you.

Or you can create a staff account for me, I’ll help you edit live faster.

Yes! Having the actual Variants would be much better than just color swatches. That would be perfect! I am about to jump back on a plane but will be free all day tomorrow and the following couple of days. I can definitely set you up an admin account and not sure if you charge or how this works, but id be willing to pay for your time. I have a couple other things id like to do as well. Whats a good time for you to be able to edit live? I will be on the east coast tonight, so eastern time zone, but can be available any time. Thanks again for all your help!
