How to modify variants in cart drawer pages without being removed separately?

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A user is experiencing issues with the Globo Product Options plugin where product variants cannot be deleted independently from the cart drawer—they must be removed together with the main product. This creates a problem: if variants are deleted separately, it leads to inaccurate checkout amounts.

Current Situation:

  • Variants generated through Globo appear as separate products in the cart drawer
  • Individual deletion of these variants causes pricing errors at checkout
  • The user seeks a way to prevent this issue

Proposed Solution:
EasifyApps suggests switching to their Easify Product Options app, which hides custom options in the cart drawer, displaying only the main product with its choices for a cleaner appearance. However, due to Shopify limitations, custom options will still appear separately on the checkout page.

The discussion remains open regarding whether this alternative fully resolves the deletion and pricing accuracy concerns.

Our product variant plugin uses Globo Product Options, Variant, This plugin will allow variants in shopify to automatically generate a product.

Products that implement variants of the shopping cart page through globo cannot be deleted at will, and must appear and be deleted along with the main product

However, on the cart drawer page, variations of products as separate products can be deleted at will, which will directly lead to inaccurate amounts at checkout.

Is there any way to avoid this problem?

Hi @serenacui ,

You can consider switching to the Easify Product Options app. We’ve improved it to hide custom options in the cart drawer, presenting only the main product and its choices for a cleaner look :hugs: :
