Product options let customers customize an item before they add it to the cart. Use them for choices such as size, extras, or a note.
You create the option once in Settings, then attach it to the products that show it.
Before you begin
Have the products in your Shopify store and on a menu.
Create an option
In Zapiet Eats, go to Settings > Product options.
Click Create. If you have no options yet, click Create option list.
Enter an Option name. This label appears above the option for customers.
Choose an Option type. Checkbox is for selectable values. Text box is for typed comments.
For a checkbox option, add Option values with Add option value.
Set Required field if customers must complete the option. For checkbox options, set Minimum selections and Maximum selections to control how many values they can choose.
Optionally add Help text. Use First value selected by default only when the first checkbox choice is an appropriate starting selection.
Under Product availability, choose which products show the option:
All products
Specific products, then Select product
Specific collections, then Select collection
Tags, Types, or Vendors, then select the matching product attributes
Click Create.
New options are published when you create them. To change an existing option, open it, update the fields, and click Save. The edit page also has Status: choose Draft to hide the option on every linked product, or Published to make it available again.
Charge for an option value
For a paid extra, open the price control beside a checkbox value.
Enter a Fixed amount.
Click Create charge.
Click Create for a new option, or Save for an existing option.
The charge increases the product price when the customer selects that value. Zapiet Eats creates an Item Customizations product in Shopify for these charges. Keep that product in your store so pricing continues to work. To change a charge, reopen its price control and use Update charge or Remove charge, then save the option.
Attach options to products
Customers only see an option on products you include in Product availability.
Open the option from Product options.
Under Product availability, add or remove products or collections.
Click Save.
Publish an option before customers can select it. A draft option does not appear on the ordering page, even if products are attached.
What customers see
On the ordering page, customers open a product and choose their options before adding it to the cart. If Required field is on, they must complete that field first. For a checkbox option they choose values within the selection limits you set. For a text box they enter text.
