A user accidentally deleted code while trying to fix non-working product variants on their Debut theme website, then copied code from a fresh theme which caused additional problems:
Current Issues:
Recommended Solution:
Revert to a previous theme version by navigating to: Online Store > Themes > Actions > Edit code > theme.liquid, then click “older versions” to access timestamped backup copies created when code changes were made.
Alternative if reverting fails:
Download a fresh copy of the theme from the theme store or developer and start over (though this means redoing customizations).
Key Prevention Tip:
Always duplicate the theme before making code changes to create a backup.
Follow-up Issues:
The discussion remains open with unresolved technical issues for some participants.
Hello
The variants on my website weren’t working so I tried changing the code by following the advice in support groups. I accidentally deleted a code and saved the theme. I couldn’t remember what the code was so I copied the theme.js code from a new debut theme to my existing theme. This has ruined my website.
The initial problem of the variants not changing still exists
My slideshow has disappeared.
Please help. I don’t know what to do. I built my website myself - www.goodcakeday.com
Hey, @gcd2021
Thanks for reaching out today. I’m happy to offer some advice. There are a couple of different steps that you can take to reverse or get your theme liquid back to the default state. Below I’ll share a couple of those options for you.
In the future, if you plan to make changes to the theme code, always back up your current theme first by creating a duplicate copy. This link will take you to a help document that explains how to do that.
My first suggestion is to look at your theme code and try to revert back to a previous theme version. Head to Online Store > Themes > Actions > Edit code and select the theme liquid. Here you can click on older versions and revert back to previous backed-up copies of your theme that are created and timestamped based on when you made changes to the code.
If this doesn’t work, I would consider downloading a fresh copy of your theme from the theme store or developer and starting fresh. Although this may be a slower fix, especially if you were already making some customizations, it doesn’t cost anything to download a new copy of a theme.
I hope this helps! If there is anything else I can help you with, please let me know.
Hi Dirk
Thank you for your email.
I tried the liquid change but now the variants don’t change at all. Could you please help me with that? Please let me know if you need anything from me to help with this.
Thank you.

this saved my day! 
Happy to hear, @LTMSHOP !
If there is anything else I can help you with, please let me know.
When I follow these steps, I don’t have the option to click “older versions” next to theme.liquid. What can I do?
