Why connect your store first
We strongly recommend installing Meowgic before starting store-related work. Once connected, you can:- Use Task to review orders, products, and inventory, inspect your theme, and apply authorized changes after confirming what will change.
- Use Apps to create store features, then follow the second part of this guide to integrate them into your theme.
Install Meowgic and connect your store
Have your Shoplazza store account ready and confirm that you have permission to install apps. We recommend signing in to the Meowgic account you want to use before installation, so the store information syncs to that account. If the store is already connected, select it in Task without installing Meowgic again.

Integrate an app you created
Integrate an app into your theme
The following steps apply when you have created an app and want to add a Section, Block, or similar feature to Shoplazza storefront pages. Dashboards and internal tools that run independently do not need to be added to a theme. Have the published app version and target theme ready. After editing an app, publish it again before integrating that version into your theme.Prepare your app
Open your app, click Publish in the upper-right corner, and select Install to your store.Choose an integration method
Meowgic supports two integration methods:- Automatic integration: If your Meowgic account is connected to a Shoplazza store, you can select a target theme and let Meowgic complete the app theme integration.
- Manual integration: Download your theme file from Shoplazza and upload it to Meowgic. Meowgic AI will integrate the app into the theme automatically. Once complete, download the updated theme file and import it back into your Shoplazza store.
Automatic integration
On the app integration page, select your connected Shoplazza store and target theme, then follow the prompts to complete integration. Open the associated page template in the Shoplazza theme editor, enable and configure the feature, then preview it using the checklist below. For manual integration, continue with the theme file workflow below.Manual integration
On the integration page, you can view the current app version and target platform. You can also switch between versions to review their integration history.Preview, test, and publish the theme
Check the following in the Shoplazza theme editor and store preview:- The feature appears in the correct page template and location.
- Settings, main interactions, and mobile layout work as intended.
- Relevant flows, such as product options, image uploads, or add-to-cart, complete successfully.
- Existing navigation, product displays, cart behavior, and customizations still work.
Update and manage
After editing an app, preview and publish it again. Check the published version, target store, and theme on the integration page, then complete integration for that version. Automatic integration uses the connected store and theme. Manual integration requires downloading and uploading the updated theme file, then checking and publishing it again. Do not treat the latest code in the editor as confirmation that your store is updated. Check the integration records and storefront behavior to confirm the intended version is active.Continue adjusting the integration
- If you encounter an issue while configuring the Meowgic app in your store, or need to make further adjustments, describe the issue or request directly to Meowgic AI from the integration page. Meowgic AI can update the integration for you. You only need to return to the main app editor when making major changes to the app’s admin system or core functionality.
- If your app is related to products, such as color options, an online customizer, or gifting features, Meowgic will integrate it according to the requirements you provided while building the app. After the initial integration, you can continue asking Meowgic AI to add cart parameters, modify the cart design, or adjust its interaction logic.
- You can also use Meowgic AI to customize and redesign your store theme.
- Explore more features and integration possibilities as you continue building with Meowgic.
