Alert

Newly created options may also not display due to syncing. When an option set is created, the option set may display option set is waiting to be re-synced. This message will disappear once the sync has finished, and your options will display once the sync has finished.

Please visit Create, Edit, or Delete Options and Option Sets for more information.

When options are first created and applied to the products on your store, it can take up to an hour for this information to appear on the product page(s).

  1. From the Shopify admin, select Online Store, then Actions > Edit code.
  2. Under Snippets, select sc-includes.liquid.
  3. At the bottom of the file, find the line:

Priced Options not Appearing in Checkout or Within Orders

Buy Now buttons are not compatible with Product Options. Buy Now buttons skip the cart page, and as a result, your customer's options will not get brought into the checkout.

Please visit Hide the Buy Now Checkout Button with Product Options for steps on either hiding the button from your store, or only from product pages that contain options created via Product Options.

If you're noticing that your priced options are specifically not appearing within the checkout or orders made on your store, it may be because there is a broken link to that priced option.

When selecting products to be included within each option set, we recommend selecting only 15 individual products at once. If you are looking to apply options to 15 or more products, please create a dynamic list.

To ensure that all of your priced options are linked properly, please follow the steps below.

  1. From within the Product Options admin, select Options.
  2. Select Edit next to the option set you want to adjust.
  3. Find an option that adjusts the price.

    Product Option Priced Option

  4. Select Review Variant

    Product Option Review Variant

  5. If this section is blank, this means that the link has been broken.

  6. Select Edit Selection.
  7. Find the correct variant and select Save Selection.
  8. Select Save.

This should resolve any troubles with priced options not appearing in the checkout, or within orders.

If the product is correctly attached but still missing from the checkout, please contact our Merchant Success team.
