You’re done in Senja. Switch to your Shopify account.

In Shopify

Go to the Shopify admin area. Navigate to “Online Store” under “Sales channel.

In the Themes tab, hit “Customize.”

Navigate to the page you want to add your widget to and look for the section you want to embed it on.

Click the “plus” button.

In the dialog that opens, search for the Custom Liquid section and click on it.

Paste your embed code AND click the save button on the menu to force your widget to load.

⚠️

NOTE: Your widget may not show up after you paste the embed code. This is totally normal. To see your widget in the preview, click on the “Save” button at the top-right to cause the page to refresh. Your widget will always show up on your live website.

In some themes, your widget will span across the entire width of your site. If you would like to change this behaviour, add this custom CSS.

.senja-embed {
  /* The maximum width. Increase or decrease the number */
  max-width: 1024px;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
  /* Give your widget some horizontal padding */
  padding-left: 20px;
  padding-right: 20px;
}

Click on the “Save” button at the top right to save your changes.

To see your widget in action, go back to the “Online Store” channel, and click on the “View your store” button.
