Method 2: Code Your Own

There are a few steps to follow if you decide to code your own sticky "Add to Cart" button for your Shopify store:

1. Locate the Shopify "Add to Cart" form on the product page

The location of the "Add to Cart" form depends on your Shopify theme. For example, the Debut theme locates it in product-template.liquid, while the Dawn theme houses it in main-product.liquid.

2. Copy the original code

Paste it a second time beneath the first entry. You might see two of the same "Add to Cart" buttons in your Shopify store, which is absolutely fine.

3. Add an ID called "sticky-atc"

The code should look like this:

<button
 type="submit"
 name="add"
 id="sticky-atc"
 class="product-form__submit

4. Add the code in the theme.css file

If you're using the Dawn theme, for example, you'll find the main CSS file in base.css. At the end of the base.css file, paste the following code:

#sticky-atc {
 display: block;
 position: fixed;
 bottom: 0;
 left: 0;
 z-index: 100;
 width: 100%;
 /* Add "background: #000;" to change the color of your ATC button*/
 /* Add "color: #fff;" to change the color of your ATC text*/
}
