How can I implement modifiable products (which are subscriptions) in Shopify?

I implemented subscriptions through ReCharge, where users can select products, and they are saved as position properties for this product. This was the only solution I could think of in my limited time using Shopify.

Per this question , it seems that the position properties are read-only after validation. If this is true, is there any solution that allows for modifiable subscriptions when users can re-select products for this subscription product that I can implement?

I use Shipstation for the delivery part, if that matters at all.

How can I implement modifiable products (which are subscriptions) in Shopify?

You can not. Well, technically you can, but it's not easy to do. Since you indicated that you were looking for official answers, I contacted Shopify by email for you, and I discussed this with Brad Leclerc, where he said:

This is true when position properties are read-only after verification, so it will need to be restored to a new order. There is no super fast / easy way to do this without any special design to automate the process. If you ultimately want to do this, I'm sure the developer from http://experts.shopify.com can install something like this.

You have two options: hire someone from experts.shopify.com to help or create your own marketing script from scratch.

I would do this with meta fields on the client.

  • Meta fields can be used on a subscription product template to make it sensitive to the subscription status of a customer (new or existing).
  • Use the order web hook to determine when a new subscription product was purchased, and then update customer meta-fields (for example, subscription level and start and end dates).
  • use a periodic task in your supporting private application:
    • request a user before subscribing due to updating their billing information or unsubscribing
    • create and pay for new orders for each subscription period

I am not familiar with Shopify and Revcharge, but according to the recommendations, could you just customize the product page in the store?

According to RevCharge, you should use the Shopify product template. http://recharge.helpscoutdocs.com/article/91-recharge-integration-guide
