# Theme Requirements

## Required Theme Changes ⚠️

### Step 1: Remove **Homepage Featured Product**

If the product you're testing appears in a Featured Product section on your homepage, remove the entire Featured Product section for the duration of this experiment.

<div data-full-width="false"><figure><img src="/files/ueDnGkHUEXQgY90YXQzI" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="/files/gwT7lz9dW0eikJvvk5pc" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

### Step 2: Update Homepage Product Cards

If your homepage shows products in a grid or carousel, remove these elements:

* Purchase Buttons
  * "Add to Cart" buttons
  * "Buy Now" buttons
  * "Quick Buy" buttons
  * "Checkout" buttons
* Quick Shop Features
  * Quick view popups
  * Quick add overlays
  * Product option selectors
* Mobile-Specific Elements
  * Plus (+) icons for quick add
  * Floating "Add to Cart" buttons
  * Sticky purchase bars
  * Quick purchase overlays

<div><figure><img src="/files/Otlth3OsRgFoDmsYqyv1" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="/files/uWunVoFls7BGrpuchfZa" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

### Step 3: Update Collection Product Cards

Remove these elements from all collection pages showing the products you're testing:

* Main Elements
  * "Add to Cart" buttons
  * "Buy Now" buttons
  * "Quick Add" buttons
  * Quick shop functionality
* Mobile Elements
  * Plus (+) quick add icons
  * Floating cart buttons
  * Sticky purchase bars
  * Quick purchase overlays

<div><figure><img src="/files/w3Jb8rgbfrvZOndwllwU" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="/files/IIAhmD8EsgZAWDG4CN4N" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

### Step 4: Remove Hidden Purchase Options&#x20;

While purchase options on the main product page can remain, you need to address hidden purchase options on any other pages.  Many themes have **Modal Popups** that appear when selecting product options (like size/color):

* Check for popups when clicking:
  * Product color swatches
  * Size selectors
  * Any product option buttons
* Remove all purchase buttons from these popups
* If purchase buttons can't be removed, disable the entire popup

## ⚠️ Important: Verify Your Test Setup
