How to move
Your store moves to the new admin when the Swish team switches it over. To ask for the move, contact support@swish.app. Moving also moves your store to a new Swish plan, and the team walks you through the details. The switch applies to everyone on your store’s staff. It takes effect the next time the Swish app is opened.Staying on the previous version
Until your store is switched over, you keep using the previous version of the admin, and your storefront keeps working as it does today. If Swish asks you to choose your admin version when you open it, click Open the previous version. Swish asks each time you open it until your store is switched.Not in the new admin yet
These parts of the previous admin don’t have a place in the new admin yet. Contact support@swish.app if you need any of them.- The Products section, with save data per product and variant
- CSV and PDF exports
- Google Analytics and Meta Pixel settings. Saves still reach the Meta Pixel from the storefront; see Meta Pixel.
- Editing automation settings, such as Minimum stock or turning an automation on or off
Switch your theme to the Swish app embed
A single Swish app embed replaces the previous App Settings and {Code} Access embeds. Save buttons and header links are now placements you set up in the Customiser instead of theme app blocks. App embeds and blocks are set per theme, so repeat steps 2, 5 and 6 on each theme you use with Swish. You only need to publish once. Publish before you turn off the previous embeds, so your live theme always has save buttons. Until you finish step 6, customers can see two save buttons or two header links.1
Pick your theme
In the Swish admin, open Home. In the Set up Swish checklist, click
Select theme and choose the theme to set up. If the checklist is
collapsed, expand it first.
2
Turn on the Swish app embed
Click Activate embed. The theme editor opens on App embeds with
Swish selected. Turn it on and click Save.
3
Set up your buttons in the Customiser
Back on Home, click Open setup. Under Placements, check the
Product detail, Collections and Header buttons, then click
Save.
4
Publish
On Home, click Publish, or click Publish on the setup under
Settings → Setups. Customers see the new storefront once the setup is
live.
5
Turn off the previous app embeds
In the theme editor, open App embeds and turn off App Settings,
{Code} Access, Collection Buttons, Floating Wishlist Link and
Wishlist Page, then click Save.
6
Remove the previous app blocks
Still in the theme editor, open each template that has a Swish block,
usually the product page, the header and your wishlist page. Remove any
Wishlist Button, Header Link or Wishlist Page block, then click
Save.
If Swish isn’t in your theme’s App embeds list, contact
support@swish.app. The Swish team turns it on for
your store when it moves to the new admin.
What customers see
- The wishlist opens in a drawer: the header button opens a panel on the side of the page instead of your previous wishlist page. To keep a full page, open the Customiser, go to Global → Preferences → Wishlist experience, and set Wishlist surface to Classic Wishlist page. The page is at
/apps/wishlist, so update any menu links that point to your previous wishlist page. - Custom code needs moving: styles written for the previous storefront, in the previous Code editor or in your theme, don’t apply to the new one. Add the styles you still need under Global → Custom CSS in the Customiser.
Buttons missing or showing twice
- Two save buttons or two header links: a previous block or app embed is still on. Repeat steps 5 and 6 above.
- No save buttons at all: check that the Swish app embed is on for your live theme, and that your setup is published on Settings → Setups with an Active badge.
- Buttons on one theme but not another: the Swish app embed is off on that theme, or the theme isn’t the one your live setup was set up for. If the embed is off, open the theme in the theme editor, turn on Swish under App embeds, and click Save. Your live setup runs on the theme it was set up for and on copies of it. On any other theme Swish doesn’t start, and the browser console says so in a
[swish]message. To use that theme, choose Duplicate to theme on the setup in Settings → Setups, then publish the copy.
