Summary
Merchant Emily reported that the pre-order button was not appearing on her live Shopify store, only showing 'Notify Me' and 'Add to Wishlist' options despite all settings appearing correct. The AI bot attempted several standard troubleshooting steps without success before escalating to human agent Nilou, who identified that a subscription selling plan was conflicting with the pre-order selling plan (Shopify does not allow stacking multiple selling plans). After Emily disabled the subscription selling plan, a hard browser refresh resolved the display issue. The agent also moved the wishlist button to the header at the merchant's request.

> All of these settings are on
**[2026-05-21 03:39:15] bot/Luna**
> If all the usual settings are on, the next most common reason is that the product is included in an offer that’s not active, or the theme can’t find the Add to Cart button to replace it with Pre-order.
> Steps:
> 1. In Shopify Admin → Notify Me app → Preorder → Dashboard → check the Offers table and confirm the offer that applies to this product is Active (including the Default Offer if you’re using it).
> 2. If you’re on a custom theme or page builder, try a quick cache refresh and confirm the theme isn’t hiding or changing the Add to Cart selector (the Pre-order button replaces Add to Cart).
> Extra: Double-check every variant meets the conditions, since one variant can hide the button.

> If the offer is active and the usual settings are on, the next thing to check is that the Pre-order button is being blocked because the theme can’t find the Add to Cart button to replace it with Pre-order.
> Steps:
> 1. In Shopify Admin → Online Store → Themes → Customize → App embeds, confirm the Notify Me app embed is on, then Save.
> 2. On the product page, make sure the Add to Cart button is actually visible in the theme (Pre-order replaces Add to Cart).
> 3. Double-check every variant meets the conditions (inventory 0 or less, Track quantity, Continue selling when out of stock), since one variant can hide the button.

**[2026-05-21 03:46:56] user/Emily Ekanayake**
> yep that is checked
**[2026-05-21 03:47:46] admin/Nilou**
> Got it! Then it most be the subscription selling plan preventing it from displaying Let me check your Preorder offer please
**[2026-05-21 03:51:26] admin/Nilou**
> Ok, you seem to not be needing any of the preorder's advanced settings (like partial payment, fulfillment date up to you, etc.) Basically the important note here is that Preorder runs by adding a selling plan to the order by default. But the item already has a selling plan: the subscription selling plan And it's not possible within Shopify to stack multiple selling plans on the same item As a workaround for this, I could disable the selling plan add on your items, from the backend By doing this, you'll lose access to the advanced settings on preorder offer Basically you'll be able to only add a simple preorder button that charges customers on the spot and immediately fulfills it Would you like me to go ahead with this change?
**[2026-05-21 03:52:06] user/Emily Ekanayake**
> ahh okay so I would have to disable subscription orders?
**[2026-05-21 03:52:49] admin/Nilou**
> Not necessarily You could do that Or you could remove the preorder selling plan here on our side Which one are you more comfortable with?
**[2026-05-21 03:55:03] user/Emily Ekanayake**
> I want to be able to have customers pre-order
**[2026-05-21 03:55:12] user/Emily Ekanayake**
> i just disabled the subcription
**[2026-05-21 03:55:29] user/Emily Ekanayake**
> but it is still not showing
**[2026-05-21 03:57:13] admin/Nilou**

> Can you please try hard refreshing your browser? Sometimes changes made to the website aren't always visible until you perform a hard refresh. This is my current view:
> [Image] To hard refresh on Google Chrome on Windows, there are two ways you can do it:
> 1. Hold down Ctrl and click the Reload button.
> 2. Or Hold down Ctrl and press F5.

> Also I made this suggestion to you on another thread ^-^ I'll resend it here just in case you did not have the chance to check it I noticed the wishlist access button is currently in the bottom left corner. Would you be interested in moving it to your header as a heart icon instead?
>
> [Image] It tends to be more visible and intuitive for customers up there, and the heart icon is instantly recognizable. Could help improve engagement with your wishlist feature.
