To keep a buy button customizable in Webflow while integrating it with Shopify, follow these steps:

  1. Set up your Shopify store: Before integrating Shopify with Webflow, make sure you have your Shopify store set up and running. This includes creating product listings and setting up collections.

  2. Install the Shopify Buy Button app: In the Webflow Designer, go to the Add Panel and click on "Ecommerce". Install the Shopify Buy Button app and follow the prompts to connect your Shopify store.

  3. Create a custom button in Webflow: In the Webflow Designer, create a button element where you want the buy button to appear. Customize the button's design using the styling options available in Webflow, such as changing the color, size, and typography.

  4. Add the Shopify buy button code: In the Webflow Designer, select the button element and click on the "Custom Attributes" section in the Element Settings panel. Add the custom attribute data-config and set its value to the JSON code provided by Shopify when generating the buy button code.

  5. Style the buy button: Use Webflow's custom code or CSS overrides to further style the buy button. You can target the buy button by its class or ID and make specific changes to its appearance.

  6. Preview and test: Preview your Webflow site to see how the buy button looks and functions. Test the button to ensure it adds products to the Shopify cart correctly.

  7. Publish your site: Once you are satisfied with the customization and integration, publish your Webflow site. The buy button will now be live on your website and connected to your Shopify store.

By following these steps, you can maintain the flexibility of customizing the buy button while seamlessly integrating it with your Shopify store in Webflow.
