    So, I am using a post-snippet with javascript to generate the shopify purchase buttons.

    I wanted to create a single snippet and pass the BookID into it by variable (that way, I only have to change the homepage shortcode and it would pull the correct book)
    However, if I try to pass the bookid like so

    <div id='product-component-{bookid}'></div>

    and then in the javascript section

        ShopifyBuy.UI.onReady(client).then(function (ui) {
          ui.createComponent('product', {
            id: '{bookid}',
            node: document.getElementById('product-component-{bookid}'),
    ...

    and the shortcode

    [preorderbook 1234567890]

    I get nothing… the variable is never passed….

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I apologize…. I thought I had posted an update.
    There is no problem with the module — I was using it incorrectly.

    The correct syntax to use the shortcode with a variable is this… and now it works
    (Suggestion, make this easier to find in your FAQ)

    [preorderbook bookid="1234567890"]
