Add dynamic checkout buttons to selected products

If you want to add dynamic checkout buttons to some product pages but not others, then you need to create an alternate template.

You can add dynamic checkout buttons to your alternate template, and then use that template for only a selection of products.

To create an alternate product template, refer to Create a new template.

4. Click the Product pages section.
5. Select or deselect Show dynamic checkout buttons.
6. Click Save. The changes are applied to all of the products that uses the alternate template.
