Card #619 · Shopify App Store
AI-generated theme sections fail to trigger cart UI refresh
Add to cart buttons in AI-generated custom section blocks do not update the cart drawer or count immediately. While items are added to the cart, the change only becomes visible after a page refresh or navigation.

when I click the ‘Add to Cart’ buttons although the items do add to cart, it doesn’t reflect until you refresh the page or navigate to a new page.
The AI-generated section is adding the product to the cart correctly, but it’s not connected to the theme’s cart UI refresh logic.
I’ve tried every prompt possible to try and fix it with no luck.
