Long requested and finally here: copy Cart Metafields to the order at checkout completion! 🥳
Cart metafields are the greenpath storage option. I highly recommend switching from cart attributes and checkout metafields. If you’re staying on cart attributes or checkout metafields, what’s your blocker?

Apps are the new normal for customizing Shopify. Here’s how you can build better customer experiences after checkout:
🧩 Build UI extensions
Create reusable functionality for efficiency:
• Build app blocks across the post-purchase flows
• Securely display order & customer information
• Implement unified branded experiences
📈 Add app pixels
Ensure purchase events are captured:
• Measure conversion and post-purchase events
• Integrate with the Customer Privacy API
• Subscribe from a wide range of events
@SuttonThings@Shopify Hey Will, this is my team. Legacy script tags were not impacted by the change we made this week. New script tags can’t be created, but existing script tags were left intact, so this should only impact new app installs. Please DM me the details and I’ll look into this.
Building with Customer Account Extensions?
Join our X Space to chat about:
• Plug and play extensions
• Self-serve capabilities
• Creating unified experiences
• Use cases for B2B, retail & more

@releod@hunkybill@TRPage_dev Dug into this more this week and we found an issue with our upstream data sources, which led to our email list including apps that had Script Tags in the past but that had since deleted them across all merchant shops. Thank you for reporting this, we're going to fix it.
@hunkybill@TRPage_dev@releod Most apps on that email list have thousands or hundreds of thousands of Script Tags deployed across different shops, so including that info in an email is unfortunately not an option. We’re looking at potentially adding that level of detail to the Partner Dashboard, though!
@hunkybill@TRPage_dev@releod Hey 👋 my team sent the Script Tag email. For context, you may have removed your Script Tag implementation, but if you received that email, that’s because you have leftover Script Tags across shops that haven’t been cleaned up.
