A merchant with a development store needs to implement a feature that requires editing checkout.liquid, but their store uses Checkout customization and lacks an option to disable it. Screenshots show another store with a toggle to disable Checkout customization, and the merchant asks what setting they’re missing.
A reply clarifies that checkout.liquid can only be enabled for Shopify Plus stores by contacting Shopify Support. It also notes Shopify is discouraging enabling checkout.liquid because it is scheduled to be retired in August 2014 (as stated).
Implications:
Status: No confirmed resolution in-thread. Next step, if on Plus, is to request enablement from Shopify Support, understanding it may be refused or temporary due to the planned retirement. Screenshots are central to understanding the missing toggle reference.
I have one dev store. I have a feature that is about to be launched and requires changes to the code in the checkout.liquid file. Currently, my store is using Checkout customization, but there is no way to disable it to use the code in checkout.liquid.
This is an image of another store that can disable Checkout customization. I don’t know what settings I’m missing.
Checkout.liquid can be enabled only for Shopify Plus stores by Shopify support team on request at the moment. Shopify is trying to avoid enabling checkout.liquid because this feature will be retired in August 2014.
