Goal: enable clicking product images to select the corresponding variant in the Pixel Union Empire Shopify theme. Current behavior: choosing a variant updates the image, but clicking an image does not change the selected variant.
Context: “variant” means a product option (e.g., size or color) that should sync with the displayed image.
Steps taken: the theme developer (Pixel Union) was contacted and referred a third-party service quoted at $200.
Suggestions offered: pay a developer/service; consider an app (~$5/month) for the functionality; or attempt a DIY solution via YouTube/tutorials. Caveat: DIY without coding skills may be time-consuming and frustrating.
Decisions/outcomes: none reached; the original poster is seeking a more affordable fix.
Status: unresolved and open; no specific technical instructions or code provided in the thread.
I’m looking for a fix to allow clicking on the images to change to the corrrect variant, using Pixel Unions Empire Theme.
Choosing the variant swaps to the right image, but if you select the image it doesn’t change the variant.
Can someone help please.
Thanks
James
you can always contact pixel union for help
I did and they recommended me a third party who wants to charge $200.
Thought i might try my luck on here as lots of people have helped in the past with different issues.
hum… honestly it really depends how you value your time lets say your time is worth $50 a hour, if you don’t know how to code its going to take you a long time to figure out or worst you pay a app $5 a month for the functionality. Id just pay someone or if you must do it yourself there is youtube videos on the subject but if you dont know code you will be lost for hours
