Add Widgets to Theme

This guide doesn’t apply to widgets with dedicated targeting. Learn how to add them in separate guide.

Place the timer widgets wherever your theme allows for inserting app blocks. You can rearrange, hide, or remove app blocks in the same way as any other blocks in your theme. Note that app blocks can only be used with Online Store 2.0 themes. Learn about app blocks in Shopify.

Activate the app in a theme

To ensure the widgets display correctly, you first need to activate the app in your theme.

Hit Activate in the app admin notification to quickly access the GSC Timer Widgets app embed of your published theme. This notification disappears once you activate the app. Don’t forget to Save the changes in the theme editor.

Alternatively, you can activate the app in a theme manually:

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes.

  2. Choose the theme, and click Edit theme.

  3. On the top bar of the theme editor, click the App embeds icon.

  4. Find the app in the list of installed apps.

  5. Click the toggle beside the app name to activate it.

  6. Save the changes in the theme editor.

Add the widget to a theme section

Some of your theme sections might not support app blocks. Refer to your theme’s documentation or contact a theme developer to learn which sections support app blocks.

  1. Open the relevant page (the widget is best used on product pages).

  2. Choose a section. If it supports app blocks, they will appear in the block picker.

  3. Add the Timer Widget app block through Add block > Apps.

  4. Copy the Widget ID from the app admin and paste it into the Widget ID field of the app block.
