Hide sold-out variants

Caution

Vintage themes aren't available in the Theme Store. These themes don't have the features included in Shopify's Online Store 2.0 themes, and Shopify free Vintage themes don't receive updates beyond security fixes.

Note

If you use a free theme from Shopify, then you might be able to contact Shopify Support for help with this tutorial. It requires 15 minutes of design time. To learn more, refer to Support for themes.

Note

This customization is for vintage Shopify themes, and doesn't apply to Online Store 2.0 themes.

• Find out your theme's architecture version
• Explore Online Store 2.0 theme customizations

You can prevent customers from selecting sold-out variants by removing or disabling those variants on the product page.

Limitations

The customizations outlined on this page do not work for the following cases:

• Your products have more than one product option
• You use the Express theme and have the product page set to show products in an overlay

Sectioned and non-sectioned themes

Note

The steps for this tutorial differ depending on whether you are using a sectioned or a non-sectioned theme. A sectioned theme lets you drag and drop to arrange the layout of your home page, and a non-sectioned theme doesn't.

To figure out whether your theme supports sections, go to the theme's Edit code page. If there are files in the Sections directory, you are using a sectioned theme. Non-sectioned themes were released before October 2016, and do not have files in the Sections directory.

If you are using a sectioned theme, click the Sectioned themes button and follow the instructions. If you are using an older, non-sectioned theme, click the Non-sectioned themes button and follow the instructions.
