shopify variant error affect all product

Topic summary

Problem: After adding a watch with a color variant “silver,” every product’s “silver” variant now shows the watch image. Deleting the watch product did not resolve it. A screenshot was provided to illustrate the issue.

Context: The store uses the Debut theme (no custom code or new apps). “Variant” refers to product options like color; “theme” is the store’s template.

Troubleshooting requested: Support asked for theme/app changes and suggested testing in a newly installed theme or rolling back theme code to pinpoint when/where the issue arose.

Latest update: The merchant removed the repeatedly displayed images, but they still appear, suggesting a theme/template mapping or caching issue rather than specific product images.

Status: Unresolved/ongoing. No confirmation yet that the merchant previewed a fresh theme or performed a code rollback.

Next steps implied:

  • Preview the store in a fresh theme to see if the issue persists.
  • Use theme code rollback per Help Center to identify when the problem began.
  • If isolated to Debut/customizations, adjust variant image mapping in the theme or contact support.

Hi, @itzmehekter .

Welcome to the Shopify Community, and thanks for posting!

To gather some context, could you provide information on the following:

  • What theme are you currently using?
  • Have you added any code to your theme?
  • Any newly installed apps?
  • Are you able to preview your store in a different/new theme and view the errors mentioned?

Hello @Victoria_13 ,

im using debut theme. no added code or installed app.

Thanks for your reply!

Are you able to preview your theme in a freshly installed theme, or following the steps listed in our Help Center resource to roll back your theme code? This will help us determine when the issue took place and if it’s directly affecting your Debut theme.
