This article will guide you through integrating Gelato's Personalization Studio into your Shopify store. This integration allows your customers to personalize products and see real-time updates on the product page.
Setting up Gelato's Personalization Studio
To set up Gelato's Personalization Studio, follow these steps:
Log in to your Shopify admin panel. Go to "Online Store" under sales channels and select "Themes".
Find your active theme and click on "Customize".
On the left side of the page, select the "App Embeds" tab.
Under "App Embeds," locate and enable Gelato Personalizer. Save your changes.
Choose whether to display the "Personalize" tab in your store.
Congratulations! Your Shopify store is ready for products with real-time personalization updates.
Managing Product Previews
The "Hide Preview" feature in App Embeds allows you to control the visibility of the preview button in the Shopify editor.
Here's how it works:
When activated, the "Preview" option is hidden from the editor, preventing users from seeing product previews.
To enable or disable this feature, check or uncheck the "Hide Preview" option in the App Embeds tab. Save your settings and refresh the page.
Updating Existing Products for Real-time Personalization
While newly created products will automatically have real-time personalization updates, previously published products need a quick update:
In your Shopify admin panel, navigate to the "Products" section.
Open each product individually.
Click the "Save" button to republish the product. This ensures the product is updated with the real-time personalization feature.
All new products created will automatically be published with real-time updates.
