Shopify cli (theme server) - not pushing changes in real time

Technical Q&A
1

Hello, I recently updated to shopify 2.1.0 and it is not pushing “to the store in real time” using shopify theme serve.

I am able to update the theme using shopify theme push

The theme serve --help doc says:

Uploads the current theme as a development theme to the connected store, then prints theme editor and preview URLs to your terminal. While running, changes will push to the store in real time

When I click the the URL, it redirects to the shopify url, and as i edit the code in VSCode, nothing gets updated when I refresh.

Me neither.

I don’t see “real time update” by using theme serve command.

Hi,

Were you able to find any fix with this issue? Been experiencing this as well and haven’t been able to find a solution yet

Same issue for me, the shopify theme serve function has not been working (showing changes locally) for over a week now. I have to make the changes “blind” and push the theme to check on the live shopify site.
