Required fields and quick add
Last updated: 18 October 2026
Many themes let shoppers add a product to the cart straight from a collection page, the home page, search results or a "You may also like" row, without opening the product page. Your option fields only show on the product page, so such an add would arrive without the answers your required fields ask for.
What the app does
When a shopper uses Quick add, Add or Choose options on a product whose option set has a required field, the app opens that product's page instead of adding it. The fields are there, the first required one is ready to fill in, and a short line says "Choose your options, then add to cart." The variant the shopper picked on the card stays picked.
Nothing changes for:
- products whose option set has only optional fields: quick add works as before;
- required fields that only show under "Show only if…": they are not required until their rule holds;
- products without an option set.
There is nothing to switch on: it works while the app embed is on.
Known limits
- Other apps that add to the cart (upsell pop-ups, bundles, cart drawers with recommendations) are not stopped. If you use one, turn its recommendations off for products with required fields.
- Themes that add from a card by script without a form and without Dawn's or Horizon's quick-add markup are not stopped. Dawn, Horizon and themes built on them are covered.
- If the app cannot be reached for a moment, a quick add goes through as it did before, so shopping is never blocked.
