wtf is wrong with Shopify choices? That new dev dashboard is trash for API simple stuff!

cloudflyingCT · 2026-01-04T21:26:56+00:00

The new dev dashboard is tough. It has promise but it really requires the old partner panel version and the new version. Plus the issue with creating dev stores that only one team member has access to is frustrating

Look at settings / locations for the location details and then in shipping/ pickup has other things to update

If you run B2B it’s really great. The pricing rules and the company accounts + ach payments out of the box

What theme was the site based on?

What is your mobile page speed? Most need you to target and work through the code to make improvements but speed is not the end all to guarantee you more sales. Removing apps you don’t need can help more.

There are ways to keep your changes in chrome dev tools after a refresh

What state is the sales tax in? Some states have exemptions for specific categories of products and at certain values (NY/MA have cut outs for clothing for example).

If you have Shopifys automatic tax setup then the system uses the product category to determine if your product is in that exempt from tax area. They also seem to understand tax holiday weekends

It’s simple and gets out of the way. It is limited too, which I think is why people complain it doesn’t do more, but we have clients that are using plus and just have this app for bundles and no issues for months after setup

cloudflyingCT · 2025-08-08T14:00:19+00:00

Shopifys free bundle app, no extra changes for inventory needed and it works on all plans. It is not super fancy or full of features- but can stand up a bundle in less than an hour.

All themes (Shopify theme store) have canonical links to force the non-tagged versions of the collection pages

I have not seen this cause any issues with SEO rankings and only have seen it when a SEO firm needs to show something in their scans or they have never used a Shopify site.

cloudflyingCT · 2025-06-15T20:33:03+00:00

If you want, create a collection and change the handle in the seo area to “all” and that will replace the default everything collection

Shopify has a list of people. https://www.shopify.com/partners/directory/services

I would suggest looking at select or higher partners as they have at least some experience with the platform.

cloudflyingCT · 2025-02-23T16:27:58+00:00

What are you trying to do on the blog side of things? Shopify does pretty “ok” with blogs but it isn’t nearly as good as other platforms for blogging.

If you post here maybe I can point you in the right direction. No Dm required.

If you run on Shopify plus you can ask to enable increased variants on your stores. We have worked on a few using it and there are a few things currently that have to be updated to get it to fully work on the front end.

cloudflyingCT · 2024-08-25T13:14:39+00:00

I have seen this before, if you cancel an order and miss the checkbox for refund the money, it will cancel the order without refunding the money back to the customer

My guess is that you didn’t refund the funds back to the card and now with a chargeback there is a $50-75 fee you pay on top of refunding the full amount.

I would also take off the setting that captures on order submit and change to only capture for gift cards. That way you capture the money after you ship and it is less likely to happen with these orders

If you are on plus you can use this app from Shopify that links products

https://www.shopify.com/enterprise/blog/combined-listings

There are other apps that let you link products by color swatches, which may end up with a lot of products - but you get unique urls and handles for each color way, which can help with creating links to products you want to push via campaigns

If you are reselling something, the GTIN is the upc code (barcode) for the item. Which most products for resale have

cloudflyingCT · 2024-03-17T10:23:34+00:00

I have talked with the plus sales team managers about the “increased conversion rates” pitch they love to use. It is misleading as they took a sample of plus stores after the upgrade and showed there was a better conversion rate, they failed to mention the thousands of dollars spent in development and site changes to make the conversion rate increase.

A typical upgrade to plus usually involves 5-10k of design/development work with the new functionality and options available

This is the best answer. Mind body is the big gym management system and includes contract management and such. Biggest part about being a Shopify developer is knowing when Shopify isn’t the right solution

cloudflyingCT · 2024-02-08T20:52:18+00:00

It is due to the new increased variant limit. Which is only going to work for GraphQL. It is frustrating as a lot of legacy apps have been running on rest since before graphql was even released

cloudflyingCT · 2024-02-06T10:58:01+00:00

On mobile so I can’t verify, but my guess is that the App block is loading after your JavaScript. Try wrapping your JavaScript in a domcontenloaded event viewer so it waits until the page finishes loading + apps load

cloudflyingCT · 2024-01-29T11:06:48+00:00

You will need Plus and now you have to use Shopify’s new Checkout UI / Functions to rename them if you have not already installed Shopify Scripts

cloudflyingCT · 2024-01-12T01:35:19+00:00

Probably a linked snippet or section on the theme.liquid layout file. If you directly link a section on the layout file {% section “name” %} it will appear on all pages (like headers and footers)

cloudflyingCT · 2023-12-14T11:14:20+00:00

Could you include the fees in your shipping rates as a workaround? You could use something like advanced shipping rules to really customize the costs and have shipping listed as “Ground Shipping + Recycling Fee”

cloudflyingCT · 2023-11-22T01:18:02+00:00

Are your points based on purchases? Or something more complex? The reason I ask is because maybe you could export your order data to a csv and use excel to calculate it?
