Hi there,

I hope you’re well.

You can apply the code below to your theme.liquid file, just before the closing tag. Here’s a screenshot for reference. We have tested it on our store, and it works properly here. You can also customize the button by editing the code as needed.

Here is the file code, I can’t adjust it directly in the comment: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15DpLd1K3bk-V0VoP3ccSMRWvz18FE_Ci95hoQoKegSE/edit?tab=t.0

I hope this meets your needs. Let me know if you have any questions!

Best regards,
