Ajax Themes in Custom Pricing

Shopify themes that use Ajax for certain features don't automatically function correctly with Custom Pricing because they update the cart dynamically without reloading the page. When this happens the changes that Custom Pricing has made to the cart are erased.

Note: If you have completed the Ajax Themes in Product Options 2.0 install on your current theme, you don't need to complete these steps.

To correct this, it is necessary to trigger Custom Pricing to redo its changes after the Ajax cart reload has completed.

Please follow these instructions to do this:

1. From Shopify's admin, select Online Store.

   

2. Select Actions.

   

3. Select Edit code.

   

4. Under "Assets", select theme.js.

   Note: If this file doesn't exist, your main JavaScript file may be named: app.js, ajaxify.js, the same name as your theme or something similar.

   

5. Look for the function that draws the cart, like refreshCart or buildCart.

   

6. Add this code immediately after the opening of the function:

   if(window.BOLD && BOLD.common && BOLD.common.cartDoctor && typeof BOLD.common.cartDoctor.fix === 'function'){
       cart = BOLD.common.cartDoctor.fix(cart);
   }

   It should look like this:

   

7. Scroll down to the end of the function.

   

8. Add this code right at end of the function before the close:

   if(window.BOLD && BOLD.common && BOLD.common.eventEmitter && typeof BOLD.common.eventEmitter.emit === 'function'){
     BOLD.common.eventEmitter.emit('BOLD_COMMON_cart_loaded', cart);
   }

   It should look like this:

   

9. Select Save.

   

That's it!
