Make Giftpin yours
occasions, look and more

Choose occasions, decide about items from other stores and sold-out products, match your store's look and language, set privacy, offer perks and move registries over from another app. Bold text is exactly what you'll see on screen.

Do these steps in order. They are numbered 1 to 20 across the Setup, Customize and Pro pages, and the numbers carry on from one page to the next.

Make it yours

All in Giftpin's Settings page.

Choose your occasions

  1. Open Settings. Under Occasions, tick the kinds of registry customers can create: weddings, baby showers, birthdays, graduations, housewarmings and more.
  2. Tick Wish list for a shareable list with no event date, such as a holiday wish list. It is off until you switch it on.
  3. Press Save (top right).

Decide on items from other stores

  1. Under Items from other stores, choose Allow (recommended), Allow, but keep my products in the majority or My products only.
  2. Allowing them is what makes customers pick your registry as their main one. Giftpin suggests your closest matching product beside each outside item.

Decide what happens when a product sells out

  1. Under Sold-out products, choose Show it as sold out (guests can't add it to their cart) or Hide it from guests until it's back in stock.
  2. Giftpin checks your live stock each time a guest opens a registry. The item always stays on the registry, so it comes back by itself when you restock.

Match your store's look and language

  1. Under Appearance, set the Button label and Accent colour.
  2. Registry page language picks the language guests see on registry pages and in registry emails: English, French, Spanish, German or Brazilian Portuguese.
  3. The Add to registry button and registry links have their own settings in the theme editor: label, icon, colours, size and spacing.
  4. To let shoppers who keep their registry somewhere else use your button too, tick Also offer Babylist or Also offer "Another registry" (copies the product link for sites like Zola) in the button's settings. The button then asks which registry.
  5. With Pro, Your branding adds your logo (Logo image link), colours and font to registry pages and removes the Powered by Giftpin credit.

Languages

  1. Guests and registrants see registry pages and emails in the language you pick under Appearance → Registry page language. Giftpin's own admin pages follow your Shopify admin language where Shopify shares it with the app, and otherwise your browser's language.
  2. The names and notes people type, and your product titles, stay as they were written.

Set privacy

  1. Under Privacy, choose whether to Hide who gave what until the event date, and whether to turn on the public find-a-registry page (Enable the public find-a-registry page). Only registries whose owners opt in are listed there. It is off until you tick it: until then, the Find link on your storefront asks visitors for the registry link instead. A registry is listed there only if its owner also picks Listed publicly under Who can see this on their manage page.

Move registries over from another app

  1. Open Registries and click Import registries. Export your registries from your old registry app as a CSV with one row per item, and choose it under CSV file.
