It doesn't work with any product that has variants. I sent them an email with the exact bit of code that just needs to be added to their pre-order button (which should be something I can add myself in the custom CSS settings), but they refused, and told me I should change my theme to one of their approved themes.
I mean, obviously I'm not going to change our entire store's theme to get their simple app to work... that's a given. But I was shocked at their response. I have been using Shopify apps for ten years (maybe more?) and I am always delighted at the responses I get from other app developers, who are more than happy to tweak a bit of code to get their app working for you. Not these guys! They just don't care.
What a silly app - I think I will just go in and write a bit of liquid code to change the button name to 'pre-order' if the product is tagged as a pre-order, then click the button for shopify to keep selling when the item is out of stock. This should be simple enough, and then I don't have to pay EZ PreOrder $$ every month for their lazy attitude.
Hello,
We have refunded all of your app charges. For clarification, our app uses the shopify theme app extension, meaning we deploy the code to shopify and that is what is run on all user stores. If we make changes to that code, it impacts all stores, not just one. So we're unable to change certain specific things on specific stores. The app uses css selectors to locate your add to cart button and swap it out with ours. This isn't a blanket custom css section, it is only used for locating the add to cart button. The way your theme is coded, the variant ID does not dynamically refresh on variant switch, which is why the button doesn't work properly with variants. Most themes that follow the standard shopify theme guidelines do dynamically refresh the variant ID. Which is what we built the app to be compatible with since this is the majority of themes. Unfortunately anything making changes to the front end of your store will not be compatible with 100% of themes. And our app was built for ease of setup, which has its upsides but the downside is lack of customizability/compatibility. But this was a design choice as we found many other apps to be too confusing to use, so we sacrificed some compatibility for simplicity. We're sorry the app isn't compatible with your current theme and we hope to expand compatibility with themes that do not dynamically refresh the variant ID in the future. I've also sent you a detailed explanation of why the app is incompatible directly to the support email thread. Please check that.
The app does the job and more importantly, the customer support is even better!
Was looking for a high quality, yet affordable option to offer pre-orders as soon as an item went out of stock. EZ PreOrder to the rescue! The base subscription let me do everything I needed to do, but the middle tier packs a punch with amazing bulk management. The functionality ticked A LOT of boxes.
- ability to set specific items to be pre-orders
- ability to change "add to cart" button text for pre-orders
- show a special message above the buy button for pre-orders (can be customized on a per item basis or managed in bulk)
- ability to choose when to dynamically turn something into a pre-order, i.e. only after stock hits 0
- ability to show a pre-order badge on collection grid thumbnails
- ability to visually customize the the badge
- preorders auto tagged with "preorder"
I just opened a small business and was trying to include one item as pre-order. I ran into some issues using the pre-order feature and was feeling unmotivated, but as soon as they reached out they fixed the issue!! This was so helpful to my business!
We needed a bit of extra help to setup the badges with our theme and their support was very helpful and got it working for us within a few hours of reaching out!
Good and fast response,got a few problem and they help me solved it quickly,keep it up!!!
Really decent app. Easy to set up, easy to use, no complaints. Might even upgrade to the full version if the whole pre-order thing works for us
Jake and Julian were very helpful with my questions and getting the app working in my store.
We love having this option for pre orders on our website.
Good app it was very easy to add a lot of products to preorder very quickly.
