How to customize checkout

Store Design
,

Topic summary

A merchant wants to add a dropdown menu for available states/regions to their checkout page, specifically for Lebanon to integrate with a local delivery app called Arra.

Key Challenge:

  • The merchant is using the Dawn theme but cannot access the checkout.liquid template file needed for customization.

Technical Limitation:

  • Editing checkout code is a Shopify Plus-only feature, meaning merchants on standard plans cannot directly modify the checkout template.

Current Status:

  • The discussion appears incomplete or cut off, with no solution provided yet for how non-Plus merchants can achieve this customization.

checkout.liquid theme template cannot be accessed by merchants who are
not on the Shopify Plus plan, as editing the checkout’s code is a Plus-only
feature.
