Theme Requirements

What you need for Convertli to work on your store.

Online Store 2.0

Requires a Shopify Online Store 2.0 theme. This includes Dawn, Sense, Crave, and all modern third-party themes.

No Code Changes

Convertli uses Shopify's native app embed system. No manual code edits or Liquid file changes are needed.

Under 15KB

Our entire script is smaller than a single product image. Zero impact on your page speed or Core Web Vitals.

Not sure if your theme is compatible?

If your theme supports app embeds in the theme editor, it's compatible with Convertli. You can check by going to Online Store → Themes → Customize and looking for the “App embeds” tab in the left sidebar. If you don't see it, your theme may be a legacy (1.0) theme and may need an upgrade.

Troubleshooting

Running into an issue? Check these common solutions first.

Widgets not appearing on my store

Make sure you've enabled the Convertli app embed in your theme editor (Online Store → Themes → Customize → App embeds). Also verify that at least one widget is activated in the Convertli app settings.

Sticky cart shows on pages other than product pages

The Sticky Add-to-Cart is designed to show only on product pages. If it's appearing elsewhere, check your theme editor settings — ensure the widget block is placed within the product template, not a global section.

Colors don't match my theme

All widget colors are customizable. Go to Online Store → Themes → Customize, click on the Convertli widget block, and use the color pickers to match your brand. You can enter exact hex codes for precise matching.

Widget overlaps with other elements

Try adjusting the z-index or positioning settings in the widget configuration. If the issue persists, check if another app is also using a sticky bar or fixed-position element. Contact support and we'll help resolve any conflicts.

Changes not showing after saving

Clear your browser cache and try a hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R or Cmd+Shift+R). If using Shopify's preview, make sure you clicked "Save" in the theme editor. Changes may take up to 60 seconds to propagate.
