How let user enter discount code and create URL for user

Technical Q&A

Topic summary

Goal: Add an input field on a Shopify page to let users enter a discount code and, on button click, redirect to a URL formatted as /discount/<entered_code> (example: https://morningragecoffee.com/discount/ERHS24001).

Approach suggested:

  • Use a Custom Liquid section or block in an Online Store 2.0 (OS 2.0) theme.
  • Implement a textbox and button that builds the redirect URL using the entered value, optionally leveraging Shopify routes.

Notes:

  • “Liquid” is Shopify’s templating language; OS 2.0 refers to Shopify’s current theme architecture supporting flexible sections/blocks.
  • The responder referenced an untested code snippet, but the actual code is not shown in the thread.
  • They offered further customization (e.g., conditional logic or routes) via paid services and requested more context details if needed.

Status/outcome:

  • No confirmed solution or working code posted.
  • Key next step is to implement and test the Custom Liquid input-and-redirect logic.
  • Discussion remains open with unanswered implementation specifics.

Hi @NewtoAllThis :waving_hand: roughly use a custom-liquid section or block; assuming an OS2.0 theme

And some code like this UNTESTED code:

Good luck.

If you need it further customized such as to be conditional or to use routes etc then contact me for services.
