Line Item Properties NOT adding to cart when using 'Buy Again' button

Extensions

Within the New Customer Accounts interface, when a customer looks at a previous order, they can click the button “Buy Again” which re-adds the same products to a new cart.

However, any custom Line Item Properties that existed are completely lost. This “Buy Again” feature suddenly becomes fairly useless for products that required custom information.

Is this a design choice from Shopify or an oversight that needs to be addressed?

Hey Sanico,

That does seem like a challenging limitation - I’ve flagged this to the product team for their recommendation and will update here once I hear back. Our product teams are currently on leave however, so there won’t be an update until early January.
