We are in the process of finishing up a new theme but was hoping for a quick fix on this until new one is ready to launch.
Topic summary
A store using Shopify’s Simple Theme reports that their custom code for selecting product variants by clicking images has suddenly stopped functioning. The feature previously allowed customers to click a variant image (e.g., an orange shirt) and automatically update the dropdown selector to match.
Key Details:
- The issue occurred without any changes made by the store owner
- The Simple Theme is no longer available in Shopify’s Theme Store
- A JavaScript code snippet is provided showing the implementation (appears partially corrupted/reversed in the post)
- The code creates variant image objects and updates variant selections based on image clicks
Current Status:
- The store is developing a new theme but needs a temporary fix until launch
- No solutions or responses have been provided yet
- The discussion remains open with the original poster seeking troubleshooting assistance
