Getting Started
Widget Setup in Your Shopify Theme
Customers can only choose pickup or delivery, a date and a time once the Bird widget is in your theme. This guide adds it to your cart page. Repeat it whenever you publish a new theme.
Add the widget to your cart page
Step 1: Open Widget placement
Go to Bird Settings > Widget placement.
Step 2: Select your theme
- Under Cart page, select your theme from Select a theme to install widget.
- Click Add widget in theme. Your Shopify theme editor opens.
Step 3: Turn on the app embed
- In the theme editor, open App embeds.
- Turn on DateTime Picker.
- Click Save.
Use the app embed, not the app block. Bird can also be added as an app block inside a theme section. Don’t turn on both: they conflict, and Widget placement then shows Multiple installations detected with a Fix configuration button.
Step 4: Check your cart page
- Add a product to your cart.
- Open your cart page and check that the widget appears.
Back in Widget placement, the Cart page box turns green and shows Manage widget in theme and Preview in theme.
Other pages
Widget placement also has sections for the Product page widget, the Order status page and the Thank you page. Each one installs separately. See Product Page Widget and Customer View: Display Date & Time on Thank You & Order Status Pages.
