Universal Quick View for All Collection Products
The Opportunity
Adds quick-view modal behavior to every product tile, even simple products without variants. Merchants can let shoppers preview product details and add to cart without navigating away from collection pages.
"The theme only shows quick view for variant products, forcing merchants to send customers to product pages for simple items and creating an inconsistent shopping experience."
