How to add quick 'add to cart' button on a product card collection page?

Topic summary

A user working with Shopify’s Dawn theme wants to enhance the product card functionality on collection pages. Currently, the theme only supports a quick add-to-cart button positioned below product cards.

Desired features:

  • Plus sign quick add-to-cart button on product cards
  • Variant selection capability before checkout
  • Customizable button positioning (e.g., bottom left)
  • Color scheme options accessible through theme settings
  • Avoid repeated CSS modifications for styling changes

An example image was provided showing the desired implementation.

Response:
This customization requires modifications to the theme’s Liquid files rather than CSS alone. The recommended solution is to either contact the Dawn theme developer directly or explore third-party Shopify apps that provide this functionality.

Status: Unresolved - requires developer assistance or app integration.

I’m currently using the Dawn theme on Shopify, which only allows the quick add-to-cart button under the product card. I’d like to add a plus sign quick add-to-cart button, on the collection page, that also lets me select a variant before checkout. Additionally, I want the theme customization settings to include options for choosing a color scheme and selecting where the button appears (e.g., bottom left). I don’t want to be limited to just one color and position, where the only way to change it is by constantly modifying the CSS code. Here is an example attached.

Hi @LaniL

Your issue can only be fixed in the theme’s Liquid file and cannot be customized with CSS. You should contact the theme developer or third-party apps for the best support.

Best,
