Installing Appify OPC on Your Theme

Installing Appify OPC on Your Theme

Overview

Before your calculators can appear on your storefront, you need to enable Appify OPC in your Shopify theme. This is a one-time setup that takes a couple of minutes. After completing these steps, your theme will be ready to display calculators on any product page.

Steps

Enable the app embed

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Online Store → Themes.
  2. Click Customize on your active theme.
  3. In the Theme Customizer, click App embeds (the puzzle-piece icon in the left sidebar).
  4. Find CalculatorAI in the list and toggle it on.
  5. Click Save.

This activates Appify OPC across your storefront. You only need to do this once.

Add a calculator block to your product page

  1. Still in the Theme Customizer, navigate to a product page template.
  2. In the product section, click Add block.
  3. Under the Apps category, select CalcAI Calculator.
  4. Position the block where you want the calculator to appear (typically below the product title or price).
  5. Click Save.

The block is now in place. Once you create a calculator and assign it to a product, it will appear in this block on your storefront.

Examples

  • Single product page — You sell custom picture frames. After enabling the CalculatorAI app embed and adding the CalcAI Calculator block to your product page template, every product with an assigned calculator displays it automatically.
  • Multiple templates — You have different product page templates for different collections. Add the CalcAI Calculator block to each template where you want calculators to appear.

What's Next

Your theme is ready. Now create your first calculator and assign it to a product to see it on your storefront.
