Use this guide when a SmartSize button does not appear on a product page where you expect it.
Why isn't my SmartSize button showing?
The missing button may be:
the Size Chart button for a size chart
the Find my size button for a fit quiz
both buttons on the same product page
Before you start
Know which button should appear on the product you are testing. If you are not sure whether the product matches a size chart or a fit quiz, check the product display rules for the chart or quiz in SmartSize.
Open the product page on your live storefront, not in the theme editor preview. Refresh the page at least once after making any changes.

=== "Neither button shows"
Use this section when **no SmartSize button appears at all** on a product page where you expect one.## Quick checks### 1. Check that the app extension is activeSmartSize uses app extensions to show buttons on your storefront.From the SmartSize Home page, open the **App extensions** card and check the status for:- **Size chart extension** - **Fit quiz extension**If the extension you need is **Inactive**, turn it on in your Shopify theme editor.

Confirm that the product you are testing appears in the list.If the product is missing, update the display rules. For a first test, select one exact product instead of a broad collection or tag.### 4. Check if the theme structure prevents automatic placementSome Shopify themes use product page sections or custom components that make automatic button placement difficult. SmartSize may show a warning when it cannot find a stable automatic selector.If automatic placement is not working, try:- **Floating button** — shows the button as a floating tab or widget on the product page. - **App block placement** — lets you place the button manually in the Shopify theme editor.For placement options, see [Choose where the SmartSize button appears](../storefront-setup/button-placement.md).### 5. Check if you saved a draft theme instead of the live themeChanges made in a draft or development theme do not affect the live storefront.If you turned on the app embed in a draft theme, the extension may still be inactive on the live storefront. Open the live theme in Shopify and turn on the app embed there.---
