# How to hide  Buy buttons and product price

When a product is being sold through an auction, you may want to hide the regular **Add to Cart** button and product price to prevent customers from purchasing the item directly at its original price.

> The app hides the Add to Cart button and product price using JavaScript after the page loads. Because of this, these elements may briefly appear for a moment before being hidden.

### ⭐ Recommended Solution

For the most reliable result, we recommend creating a dedicated product template for auction products and removing the price and buy button directly in your Shopify theme. 

### 🛠️ **Steps to manage**

* Open the theme editor > create a new product template
