ADD THE 'ADD TO REGISTRY' AND/OR 'ADD TO WISHLIST' BUTTON TO YOUR STORE
Tip: Wishlists are not enabled by default. You can enable them by clicking the Preferences dropdown in the top-right navigation and click Settings. Enabling it by ensuring the checkbox is checked and saving the page at the bottom.
- Login to your Shopify store administrative panel, and click Online Store on the left
- Find your store's default theme, or the one you wish to customize for Gift Reggie, and click Customize
- Navigate to a product page
- On the left side of your screen, click the 'App Embeds' icon and toggle the 'Registry and Wishlist' Gift Reggie setting on. This will activate Gift Reggie on your theme.
- Now you can place the buttons on your product page. Depending on what version of Shopify theme you are using, this step is slightly different.
- If you have a Shopify 2.0 theme, return to the sections tab. There should be a section for 'Product information'. In here, click 'add block' and select the 'Registry/Wishlist' option. You can now drag this block around to place the buttons where you would like them.
- If you have a vintage Shopify 1.x theme, click on the 'Registry and Wishlist' app embed to expand its settings. There will be a setting for 'Online Store Version' with options 2.0 and 1.x. Select 1.x. The app should automatically detect your product form and place the buttons on the page.
- To modify the button settings, you can click the app embeds icon and click on the 'Registry and Wishlist' block. This will give you options to alter button colors, arrangement, behaviour, and more advanced css settings.
