Troubleshooting guide

Widget-only discount not applying outside KitForge widget

KitForge widget-only discounts apply when shoppers use bundle widgets — not when manually adding the same SKUs. Understand FBT and QB pricing paths.

Kitforge Bundles Shopify bundles Troubleshooting guide

Quick answer

Widget-only discounts mean tier prices and FBT savings apply when cart lines are created through KitForge widgets with _kitforge_* line properties. Manual adds of the same products follow standard variant pricing unless separate discounts exist.

  • Widget path and manual add path can price differently.
  • Line properties mark widget-initiated lines.
  • Explain widget usage in product copy for QB tiers.
  • Analytics attribution follows the same widget path.

Merchandising copy

Use labels like Volume discount applied automatically on QB widgets. FBT should show savings on selected add-ons before add-to-cart.

Testing

Always test both widget path and manual add path. Only the widget path should reflect bundle pricing for widget-only offers.

Final recommendation

Widget-only discounts align price with presentation. Train support to recognize manual-add vs widget-add carts.

If you want this kind of offer to feel native to the buying journey, Kitforge Bundles is built around that exact problem: turning related Shopify products into clearer bundle offers before the shopper reaches checkout.

FAQ

Can I disable widget-only?

widgetOnlyDiscount is part of KitForge's integrity model for FBT/QB. Changing behavior may desync PDP display from checkout.
