Bold Motivator only requires a liquid code installation if you are planning on offering a free gift to your customers while on the Premium Plan, or your theme uses an AJAX cart. With AJAX, a cart will update without going to the actual cart page. The liquid code will be needed to ensure the banner and free gift update correctly.

We offer a few different options to help you complete this installation on your store:

  1. The ability to request a professional installation from our team
  2. A step-by-step guide on completing this manually

Before you start we highly recommend creating a Duplicate version of your Shopify theme to ensure you have a copy without our code installation.

 Alert

If you are planning on offering free gifts to your customers, you will need to reach out to our Merchant Success team to enable a feature on the backend once the installation has been completed.
