*Coming Soon* Implementing Smartrr on storefronts with Shopify’s Dawn theme
Last updated: March 7, 2022
Before implementing Smartrr, it's important to review Shopify's subscription requirements to determine your eligibility for offering subscriptions on your storefront. You must also have inventory tracking enabled for a product to be subscription-eligible.
If your store is using Shopify’s default Dawn theme, and have not made any customizations your your theme’s source code, you’re eligible for our simple two-click automated install of Smartrr via our in-app Setup page.
Within the Smartrr app navigate to Setup under RESOURCES in the left-hand menu.
Complete Steps #1-4; the four prerequisites to installation which instruct you to set up subscription programs, shipping rules, customize account portal theming, and define rules around failed payments.
Implementation of Smartrr begins at Step 5 where you will install Smartrr Snippets.
⚠️ To prevent Smartrr from showing up on your site before you're ready to launch, we recommend navigating back to Shopify’s Themes to duplicate a copy of your current theme (Actions > Duplicate). Name it something that is easily recognizable, such as [Your Store] Smartrr Integration Copy [Date] so that when you modify the below code, you know you are updating the correct theme.
Smartrr Snippets are files that are injected into your code base and will not modify any existing liquid files. Click the button +Add Smartrr Snippets.
Upon successful installation of Smartrr Snippets, the following five files will have magically 🪄 appeared under the ‘Snippets’ section of your theme’s code:
Finally, in Step 6, click Automated Install.
In the window that appears, select your same duplicated theme from the above step in the dropdown and click on Complete Install. This button will modify your code’s liquid files on the following pages by injecting snippets that allow Smartrr to render:
- Product Page
- Customer Account Page
- Order Status Page
Upon successful installation, you’ll be able to preview Smartrr on your site!
