A user is attempting to add a customizable “Text On Sleeve” option with a 12€ surcharge to their product page. They tried implementing this using HTML/JavaScript code that adds a separate product to the cart when “Yes” is selected from a dropdown, but the code isn’t working.
Proposed Solutions:
Three third-party Shopify apps were recommended as alternatives to custom coding:
Easify Product Options: Allows adding custom options with pricing without coding, displaying as dropdowns, checkboxes, or other formats
Inkybay - Product Personalizer: Offers product option features with dropdown styling and custom pricing, includes 21-day free trial
Kickflip: Provides a product customizer with live preview capabilities for personalization (text, colors, fonts)
Status: The original coding issue remains unresolved. All responses suggest using apps rather than fixing the custom JavaScript implementation. The user can explore free trials to determine which solution fits their needs.
