Pre-order products using tags
Replace the add-to-cart button with a pre-order button using tags
If you have a product that is not yet ready to be shipped to customers, you can set it up as a pre-order product. Broadcast can replace the add-to-cart button with a pre-order button by using a
_preorder tag.
Convert the Add to cart button to Pre-order
- From your Shopify admin, choose "Products"
- Choose the product you want to change into a preorder
- Add the tag
_preorder - Save the product
When Broadcast sees a product with this tag, the Add to cart button will automatically be changed to Pre-order.
Use the language editor to customize the button text for pre-order.
Choose Edit languages from the Actions button
Search for
