The compare price is not displayed in the Liquid templates when using the shopping cart drawer

Topic summary

A merchant wants to display both the compare-at price and current price in their shopping cart drawer to show customers their savings. Currently, only the current price appears.

The Issue:

  • The developer reports that compare price information isn’t available in the Liquid templates for the cart drawer
  • This prevents customers from seeing discount amounts when items are added to cart

Suggested Solutions:

  • For Shopify-supported themes: Contact Theme Support team via Shopify Help Center for customization assistance
  • For third-party/custom themes: Reach out to the original theme designers for support
  • If theme designers don’t offer customization: Consider hiring a certified Shopify Partner developer

Status: The discussion remains open with no definitive technical solution provided yet. The response focuses on support channels rather than addressing whether the compare price data is actually accessible in cart drawer Liquid templates.

To encourage sales, we’re leveraging the compare price and the current price, but currently, the shopping cart drawer only displays the current price. We want customers to see how much they are saving when they add items to the cart. However, our developer mentioned that the compare price information isn’t available in the Liquid templates. Could you suggest a solution for this? Here is our website for reference: www.gowithollie.com

Hey, @Olliehelmet .

Thanks for posting this question!

If you’re using a Shopify-supported theme, then adding the Compare at price to the cart page might be something that our Theme Support team can help you with. While we’re unable to provide account-specific support via the Shopify Community, we’d be happy to continue assisting you with a customization request through live chats. Simply visit the Shopify Help Center and login to your account to create a support request.

If you’re using a third-party or custom theme, then we’d recommend getting support for your theme from the theme designers. However, if the theme designers don’t offer customization support, then you may need to consider hiring a developer to assist you with the theme. Should you need help finding a developer for your store, then we’d recommend taking a look at our directory of certified developers on Shopify Partners.
