Hello, I’m using Sense theme for my website LunarRisingSportswear.com and some of my products have variants with different prices. When customers click on the photo of each variant, the price does not change to match with the photo variant selected. There’s a drop down menu for customers to select the different variants and when using that option, the price does change to match. I would like for the price to change when customers click on the photos of each variant as well. I hope this question make sense. I’m trying to set up my account on Google channel and Google is flagging the price discrepancy as an issue. Does anyone know of a code that I could use to resolve this issue? Thank you!!
Topic summary
Issue: In the Shopify Sense theme, clicking variant photos doesn’t update the product price, while the variant dropdown does. This creates a price mismatch flagged by Google Merchant Center during Google channel setup.
Constraints: Guidance available online targets OS 1.0 “vintage” themes and doesn’t directly apply to Sense (an Online Store 2.0 theme). Implementing photo-click price updates in Sense likely requires multi-step theme changes and developer help.
Suggested solutions:
- Hire an expert to implement variant-image click handling that updates the selected variant and price.
- Use an app (e.g., Variant Image Automator) to separate variants per image, potentially aligning images and pricing behavior.
- Workaround: edit price.liquid to show “From {{ money_price }}” and optionally set all variants to the highest price to avoid mismatch (changes pricing presentation, not true dynamic switching).
Notes: “price.liquid” is the theme template controlling price display; OS 1.0 = older “vintage” themes vs. Online Store 2.0.
Status: No code snippet or confirmed fix provided. Action items are recommendations (app, expert, or display workaround). Discussion remains open.
Hi @LunarRising ,
Currently, all tutorials are supported for OS 1.0( https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/themes/themes-by-shopify/vintage-themes/customizing-vintage-themes/select-variants-click ), with Sense theme version it will be a complicated requirement and you need to hire an expert for it.
Because it will need to change at many steps and it is difficult for someone to guide you directly here.
Or you can try some apps, it will separate the variant and your product page looks more professional: https://apps.shopify.com/variant-image-automator
Hope it helps!

Another Solution: Change {{ money_price }} to From {{ money_price }} in price.liquid
And you could very well, just set Higher price as the price for all variants.
