The app will automatically connect to your Shopify store.

Step 2: Enable the Widget (2 minutes)

After installation, you need to add the price display widget to your theme:

  1. Go to Online Store > Themes in your Shopify admin
  2. Click Customize on your active theme
  3. Navigate to a product page template
  4. Click Add block in the product section
  5. Select Omnibus Price Tracker from the Apps section
  6. Position the block where you want the price information to appear
  7. Click Save

Step 3: Configure Settings (1 minute)

Back in the Omnibus Price Tracker app:

  1. Go to Settings in the app navigation
  2. Choose your preferred display format
  3. Select your store's primary currency
  4. Customize colors to match your brand (optional)
  5. Click Save

Step 4: Verify Installation (1 minute)

Let's make sure everything is working:

  1. Visit a product page on your store
  2. Look for the Omnibus price disclosure widget
  3. If you've had the app installed for 30+ days, you'll see actual price history
  4. New installations will show "Price history tracking started"

Customization Options

Once installed, you can customize:

Display Text

Change the wording to match your brand voice or translate it to your customers' language.

Colors

Match the widget to your store's color scheme with custom primary and secondary colors.

Position

Move the widget above or below the main price, or into a separate section.

Show/Hide Conditions

Choose to only show the widget when there's an active discount.

Troubleshooting

Widget Not Appearing?

  • Make sure the app block is added to your theme
  • Check that the product template is correct
  • Clear your browser cache

No Price History Showing?

  • The app needs time to track prices
  • Full 30-day history builds over 30 days
  • You'll see data immediately for any new price changes

Next Steps

Now that you're set up:

  1. Let the app track for 30 days to build complete price history
  2. Review the dashboard to see your compliance status
  3. Run your first compliant sale with confidence
