Localization of UGC widgets
All Cevoid widgets can be localized to align with each of your storefronts using Markets. The widgets will automatically detect what market they are displayed on and use the corresponding language and display product tags with the correct currency, price, and URLs.Products and variants
Product tags are an essential element when showcasing UGC since they help visitors navigate to the products featured in the posts they are inspired by. We will continuously sync your product catalog to ensure that you can easily add new product tags to posts and that the information displayed in your UGC widgets is up to date. When you add a product tag to a post, we will automatically connect the post to other variants of that product, the category, and any related collections. This way, you can build super relevant galleries around your products and utilize dynamic galleries such as the product page gallery.How to group products that are NOT variants in Shopify
How to group products that are NOT variants in Shopify
Variants for Shopify work great, but some merchants might want to have separate primary products for variants of color. For this setup, you will need to add a grouping tag in Shopify to be able to utilize the fallback behavior of the product page gallery fully.
- In Shopify, navigate to the product
-
Add a tag prefixed with and a unique identifier after: _cevoid: customIdentifer
- _The tag could look something like this: _cevoid: running-shorts
- Add the exact same tag to all other products you want to group together. Products with the same cevoid tag will now share Images and Videos across the product page gallery.
Products can have multiple _cevoid: tags if you need to group products together in other ways as well. For example if you have a product that bundles together multiple products and sell as a bundle. You can use the same methodology.
