Recommended Custom Display Positions for OS 3.0 Themes
When you select Custom in the app, you can flexibly place the Wishlist button in different locations on the product detail page using the OS 3.0 theme editor. Below are three common and recommended display methods with setup instructions.
Display Above the Product Image Layer
- In the theme editor, go to the product detail page and navigate to Product > Product media files > Product file overlay, then add the Add wishlist button App Block.
- Click the added Add wishlist button App Block to choose how the button appears on the product image, including Button style or Icon style.
Display Below the Purchase Button
- In the theme editor, go to the product detail page and navigate to Product > Product information.
- Hover below the Purchase button component, click the + icon, select Apps, then find and add the Add wishlist button App Block.
Display Next to the Product Title or Price
As the theme editor currently does not support side-by-side layouts for components, you need to use the Content container component to place the title or price next to the Wishlist button. Follow these steps:
| Note: The OS 3.0 Bottle theme does not currently support the Content container component. As a result, side-by-side layouts cannot be implemented using a content container. For more information about how to use the Content container, refer to "Enabling Flexible Horizontal Layouts within the Product Detail Page." |
- In the theme editor, go to the product detail page and navigate to Product > Product information. Hover over the component, click the + icon, and select Theme > Content containers.
- Under the Content container, click + Add content, select Theme, and add either the Title or Price component as needed.
- Hover over the Content container again, click the + icon, select Apps, then find and add the Add wishlist button App Block. You will now have a combined container that includes the Title + Wishlist button or the Price + Wishlist button.
- Click the Content container and configure the Layout direction in the settings panel. Select a horizontal layout to display the components side by side. You can also adjust alignment, spacing, and other style settings as needed.
| Note: If you have already added the Title or Price component separately in the Product information section and also added the same component inside a Content container, make sure to remove or hide the standalone component to avoid duplicate titles or prices on the page. |
Wishlist Display
You can customize the quick view button and its text that will be displayed within the wishlist of your customers. The following settings are available:
- Quick view: When enabled, your customers can quickly view product details and make a direct purchase from their wishlist. Note that this feature may not be supported in certain themes such as Seed, Charm, and Modern.
- Quick view button text: The text displayed on the quick view button for your customers.
Sharing Wishlists
Go to Wishlist > Settings > Share settings.
You can choose to let customers share their wishlist via Facebook, X, or email.
Once set up, customers can share their wishlist using these channels when they view their wishlist.
Important: When designing your store, please do not delete the Wishlist (DO NOT DELETE) page (customers see “Wishlist” on the storefront). Otherwise, customers won’t be able to use the Wishlist feature properly, and the page can’t be restored after deletion.
