I do not want to show pre select age variant as the Default.

Topic summary

Issue: Merchant wants customers to manually choose an “Age” variant on the product page, without any variant being pre-selected by default. A screenshot is provided showing the current pre-selected variant state.

Key points:

  • Goal is to prevent an automatic/default variant selection so users must actively pick an option. This helps avoid accidental purchases with the wrong variant.
  • “Variant” refers to product options (e.g., Age), and the “default variant” is the one auto-selected when the page loads.

Advice given:

  • No simple built-in setting was identified to disable the default selection directly in the theme. It likely requires theme code changes.
  • A developer should deselect the default variant on page load and implement validation on the Add to Cart button to alert/block if no variant is selected.

Status: No code-level steps provided; recommendation is to involve a developer. The issue remains open/unresolved.

how can i do User/Customer can manually select the Age variant not to show initially select age variant.

Hello @chandamamastore ,

I don’t think you can do it yourself.
btw if you know code or if you have a developer ask him to deselect the default value on product page when customer reaches there.
Also you have to make sure the add to cart button shows an alert message if a customer forgot to add the product without selecting the variant.

Thanks
