How to edit the text on a button

Store Design

Topic summary

  • Issue: After previously changing a product-page button label from “Sold out” to “Coming soon” in the Dawn theme, the poster couldn’t find where to revert it.

  • Suggestions: Check either the buy-buttons.liquid template or the en.default.json locale file for the text.

  • Outcome: The text was located in en.default.json and successfully changed back to “Sold out.” A request for store URL/password was unnecessary as the problem was already fixed.

  • Notes: en.default.json is the theme’s language/translation file (Locales) that controls UI text such as button labels. buy-buttons.liquid controls button rendering and may contain hardcoded text if previously customized.

  • Status: Resolved; no open questions or further action items.

A while back I manipulated my button text code in the dawn theme from ‘sold out’ to ‘coming soon’ and for some reason I am no longer able to search for that nor can I find it in any of the script files to change it back to sold out. Can someone please help me?

Hi @brklynpark ,

Can you confirm that you changed the text from the code? If yes then either you might have change the text from buy-buttons.liquid file or changed the text from the en.default.json file.

Let me know how it goes.

hi-

I did in fact change it in the code. But I tried your solution and I did find it in the en.default.json to change it back!

THANK YOU :heart:

@BrewBrains ’ solution of editing the text in ‘en.default.json’ fixed it. Thank you!
