Price won't update when selecting variants in Desktop View (Studio 10.0.0)

Store Design

Topic summary

A Shopify store owner encountered an issue where product prices failed to update when selecting variants in desktop view, while mobile view functioned correctly. The problem occurred despite using the same liquid snippet (price.liquid) in both views, with CSS hiding one version for mobile and another for desktop.

Key Details:

  • The developer had duplicated the price HTML for different screen sizes
  • A bundle app’s variant prices updated correctly in desktop view, suggesting the issue was specific to the theme’s implementation
  • The price.liquid snippet was rendered with parameters including use_variant: true and show_badges: true

Resolution:
Shopify theme support successfully resolved the issue. The exact technical fix wasn’t detailed in the thread, but likely involved adjusting the JavaScript function that updates prices on variant selection or extending it to properly target the desktop price element.

Hello,

Thanks very much for your reply

I am in the inspect mode in the video recording, first in tablet then in laptop screen size. Small screens are mobile sizes.

Please note that I use a bundle app, the variants prices do update on this app in desktop view

This is the example product where you can find the issue:
