Fixed bundles (Shopify Bundles)

A fixed bundle is a product made of other products, always the same ones: a starter kit, a pack of three, a gift set. You create it in Shopify with the Shopify Bundles app. For Smootify it is an ordinary product: it syncs to the CMS, it has a product page, and it goes to the cart with the usual add-to-cart form. This page shows how to list what the bundle holds.

Fixed bundle, Magic Box or add-ons

There are three ways to sell products together. Pick the one that matches who decides what goes in:

1. Build the bundle’s page

The bundle has its product page like any other product: see build the product page. Its price, options and stock come from Shopify. With the Shopify Bundles app, the stock follows the stock of the products inside.

2. List what the bundle holds

Add variant="components" to an element inside smootify-product. Smootify makes one copy of it for each product in the bundle of the selected variant. Inside the copy, these attributes show that product:

• component="title": its name;
• component="variant": its variant, such as “Red / M”. Empty for a product without variants;
• component="quantity": how many of it the bundle holds;
• component="image" on an Image: its picture;
• component="url" on a link: its product page, on that variant.

A copy without any component element inside shows a plain text such as “2× Travel mug”. When the selected variant is not a bundle, there is no copy. The list follows the variant: pick another option and it shows that variant’s contents.

What is up to you: which parts you show, and the layout of the list. See bundle component values.

3. In the cart

The bundle is one line in the cart, with the bundle’s name. In the cart, a box-item inside the cart-item template repeats once per product in the bundle, with the cart line values such as box-item="title" and box-item="quantity":

On a line that is not a bundle, the box-item is removed.

Quotes and custom prices. When the cart becomes a Shopify draft order (a quote, or a cart with a price set by name your price or the product configurator), the bundle keeps its products, and the order’s additional details list them for the merchant under “Bundle (1)”.

Buy again. The buy-again button of the order pages leaves bundles out: an order does not say which bundle its products came from.
