Making Your Shopify Sale Price Shine: A Personal Journey

Once upon a bookstore night in our little online corner of the world, we stumbled upon a curious problem that challenged our, dare we say, aesthetic sensibilities. You see, just like our friend over on the Shopify forums—let's call them Gogghi—we had this formidable situation where our product page's sale price screamed like a neon light against a beautifully balanced original price. This perplexing conundrum beckoned us to solve the mystery of making the sale price smaller—ever so gently—so it would harmoniously match its crossed-out predecessor, much like a well-rehearsed symphony. And on both desktop and mobile, mind you!

Meeting the Problem Head-On

I vividly recall the evening the issue first came to light. We were gathered around the digital hearth—a.k.a. the computer—sipping on some late-night coffee, when suddenly, there it was, a blaring, bold sale price glaring at us, refusing to be tamed. It felt like trying to match socks after they’ve been through the wash one too many times, always coming out a tad off-kilter. Ever been down that road? We sure have.

So how did we handle this? Let’s dive right in, shall we?

Step-by-Step Guide to Tackling the Sale Price Size Issue

Armed with our sidekick, caffeine, and a trusty cup of determination, we embarked on our journey to tame the Shopify sale price. Ready? Here’s our battle-tested plan:

Access Your Shopify Admin Panel
Let’s kick things off by embarking on the digital expedition to the Shopify Admin Panel. It’s like the secret chambers of a wizard’s tower, where all the magic happens.
Find Your Theme
Dive into the theme section like you’re diving into summer waters. Head to the "Online Store" and then "Themes." You’ll see your current theme sitting there in all its glory.
Customize Your Theme
Hover over your active theme, almost like you’re about to discover a hidden world, and click "Customize."
Dig Deep into the Code
This part was like solving a puzzle under the stars with a whisper of moonlight guiding us. Go to "Actions" and select "Edit code." Don’t worry; we aren’t heading into dragon territory just yet.
Locate the CSS File
We’re on a treasure hunt, dear friend. Find the CSS file—usually under "Assets" tab, and it might be named some delightful jargon like theme.scss.liquid or styles.scss.liquid.
Add the Magical CSS
We insert a dash of magic here folks—the CSS code. We add this charm to adjust the size of the sale price providing peace to your aesthetic soul:
```
/* Adjust the sale price size */
.product-price__sale {
  font-size: 0.75em; /* Adjust this percentage to fit your fancy */
}
```
Test Your Changes
Refresh your product page as if you’re peeking out at a beautiful sunrise after a long night. Does it look splendid?

Our moment of triumph felt like finding a perfectly synchronized dance step—and what's even better, it worked seamlessly on both desktop and mobile. It was a joyous end to our little saga where design harmony was restored.

Reflecting on Lessons Learned

Oh, what an adventure! It taught us about patience, like re-watching a beloved show until we finally got the foreshadowing. Engaging with the design elements in Shopify was reminiscent of how every paint stroke matters on a canvas. It’s like adding that perfect seasoning to a stew—tasting and tweaking until it’s right.

Also, knowing when to seek help is pivotal. Just like Gogghi asked for an assist, we, too, leaned on our trusty group of online peers (and a bit of YouTube tutorials delightfully delivered—and might I add massively helpful).

And there we have it, dear friend—a heartfelt journey through a peculiar problem. Sometimes, it's these little bumps in the road that provide the most significant learning opportunities. It's not just about fixing an issue, but celebrating the journey of understanding the 'why' and the 'how,' creating something beautiful for our online shoppers to relish. Now, onward to more eCommerce adventures, and may your Shopify journey be forever aesthetically pleasing!
