Collection Bundle Shows $0 or Won't Redirect to Product Page

Some themes block customers from viewing or purchasing products with a $0 price. Since collection bundles are created as a product with a $0 price, this can prevent customers from accessing the bundle page.

Why Does This Happen?

When you create a collection bundle, MOD Bundles creates a Shopify product set to $0.00. The actual bundle price is calculated dynamically based on the customer's selections and any discount you've configured.

Some themes include built-in logic that:

  • Hides products with a $0 price from collections and search

  • Prevents customers from navigating to a $0 product page

  • Displays a "sold out" or "unavailable" label on free products

  • Removes the "Add to Cart" button for $0 products


How to Fix It

Option 1: Set a Placeholder Price (Recommended)

  1. Go to Products in your Shopify admin

  2. Find the collection bundle product

  3. Set the Price to a small amount like $0.01 or the expected bundle price

  4. Click Save

This satisfies the theme's price check. The actual price shown to customers on the bundle page is always calculated dynamically by the app, so the placeholder price in the product admin won't affect what customers pay at checkout.

Option 2: Edit Your Theme's Price Logic

If you're comfortable editing theme code (or can ask your developer):

  1. Go to Online Store → Themes → Edit code

  2. Look for template files that check product price (commonly product-card.liquid, product-grid-item.liquid, or similar)

  3. Find conditions like if product.price > 0 or unless product.price == 0

  4. Adjust them to allow $0 products

Note: Theme code edits vary by theme. If you're unsure, contact your theme developer or reach out to us for guidance.

Option 3: Check Theme Settings

Some themes have a built-in setting to show or hide free products:

  1. Go to Online Store → Themes → Customize

  2. Look in Theme settings → Products or Collection page settings

  3. Look for options like "Hide free products" or "Hide sold out products"

  4. Disable any setting that hides $0 products


How to Tell If This Is Your Issue

  • Your collection bundle product page returns a 404 or redirects away

  • The bundle product doesn't appear in collections even though it's Active

  • Customers report they can't open the bundle link

  • The product card shows "Sold out" despite the bundle being active
