Personalized Offers Manual Activation - Visionary Plan
The purpose of this guide is to provide you with the necessary details to manually activate one or more of the 4 main blocks of the Polymatiks Personalized Offers app.
Key Assumptions
Before proceeding with the manual activation of the blocks, the following key assumptions must be true:
- You are subscribed to the Polymatiks Personalized Offers – Visionary Plan.
- You have tried the Automated Activation of the blocks, but one or more of the blocks failed to activate.
If you have not tried the Automated Activation of the blocks, please follow the instructions in this guide.
Theme Template Version
The manual activation of the blocks differs based on the Theme Template version you’re using. In particular, we need to determine if your Theme Template is based on a Shopify 2.0 version (launched in July 2021), or 1.0 version (which most stores are still using).
How to identify your Template Version
The easiest way to identify the template version is by checking if it’s possible to add more sections on the internal pages. For example, you can go to product page and check what follows:
Template 1.0 (Vintage)
Basically, if the product page allows you to include more Sections, it’s a 2.0 Template version. Otherwise, you’re using a 1.0 Template.
If you’re using a 2.0 Template, click here to follow the manual activation of the blocks.
If you’re using a 1.0 Template (Vintage), click here to follow the manual activation of the blocks.
