Integrating with Mobilia, Retina, Responsive, or Parallax themes

Integrating with Mobilia, Retina, Responsive, and Parallax Shopify themes

Back in Stock supports integrating with the beautiful  Mobilia, Responsive, and Retina themes from Out of the Sandbox. This guide will explain how the integration works and walk you through installing it for your store.

One of the great features of these themes is the Notify Me form built into the product page. By default it will send the store owner an email, but by installing an integration you can have the email address sent to Back in Stock.

Back in Stock integration also works great with the quick view popups and mobile support.

Supported versions

Your store will need to have one of the following themes installed for this feature to work.

• Mobilia v2.0 (or later)
• Responsive v3.2 (or later) 
• Retina (any version)
• Parallax (any version)

If you have an older version the built-in notify me form isn’t included, so the integration won’t work. You can either  upgrade your theme or continue to use the standard Back In Stock product page widget.

Backup your theme

This is the most important step. In the next step Back in Stock will install a new template snippet into your theme, and backup your current snippet. While this shouldn’t cause any problems it’s very important you keep a backup of your theme just in case something does go wrong.

Backup your theme by logging into Shopify admin and choosing Themes. Find your theme (it should be the current theme at the top) and select Export.

Shopify will send you an email with the theme attached as a ZIP file. Keep this backup in a safe place in case you want to remove the integration in the future.

Install the integration

Log into Back in Stock and choose Customize, then  Theme integration.

Check the Mobilia, Responsive, Retina, or Parallax theme is selected in the dropdown, and select Install to selected theme.

Back in Stock will rename your current  product-notify-me.liquid  snippet as a backup (usually asproduct-notify-me-1.liquid ) and then install an updated snippet which includes the Back in Stock integration.

Test the installation

Find an out of stock product in your store and try out the notification form.

Can’t see the form?

If you don’t see a form on an out of stock product you may need to enable it first in Theme Settings.

1. From your Shopify admin page go to Online store, Themes.
2. Click Customize on the desired theme.
3. Click Theme Settings
4. From the list of settings, click on Product Grid
5. Find the setting Enable "Display Back in Stock notification" Form. Make sure this is checked and hit Save.

TIP: If you are logged into a customer account the email field won't appear (your customer account email address will be used automatically). If you can see the form but the email field is missing you are probably just logged into a customer account.

Hide the default widget button

If everything is working well with the form you can disable default widget button.

In the app choose Customize, then Product page button. In the Appearance tab uncheck  Widget button is visible on product pages. Hit Save button settings.
