it f*cked up a live theme. Now I have to figure out what to do in the middle of the day while traffic enter the broken theme.
Shogun A/B testing is really poor and full of bugs. My store theme got unpublished without notice. It publish duplicated theme that created month ago. Now my entire store is messed up. This kind of sneaky conduct has caused me order losses. I paid $119 for the service, but the product detail testing function fails to work. I cannot even edit and adjust product descriptions normally.
I started an AB test. It deleted all of my product images and made some of my apps broken.
