Here is a site that has what I am looking for:

Yes, I believe we are on Shopify plus.

Hi! We are on Shopify Plus, does it mean that we need to develop an app or is there a way for Shopify to apply this? Since checkout.liquid is now gone, I am trying to find a way to have the order summary to show as we always have that before.

someone have any solutions for this? I really need the order summary to default expanded on mobile view

@mdwikyrama please check your order summery template, check if the css is forcing it to be closed on mobile view. It is combination of css and javscript so need to be careful to make any changes to it.

in which file ya? is that accessible?

@mdwikyrama please check in the notifications, if you have an order template

i mean, is this liquid file? because on my template theres no checkout / order-summary liquid

@mdwikyrama please check in settings->notifications->templates, it would a liquid file
