Step 2: Publish

Step 2: Publish the menu on your website.

I) METHOD 1: INSERT (BEFORE OR AFTER) THIS MENU AT A SPECIFIC LOCATION ON YOUR WEBSITE, OR REPLACE AN EXISTING MENU, USING A CSS SELECTOR. (RECOMMENDED)

I.1. Turn on Navi+ on App Embeds

Step 1: Click Online Store, then click Themes. Tips: Right-click on Online Store and select “Open Link in New Tab” to save time.

Step 2: Select the theme where you want to publish the menu.

Click: Customize

  • If your website is new and has no users yet, feel free to publish the menu without worry—you can easily turn it on or off at any time without affecting visitors.

  • If your website already has regular traffic, be more careful. The best practice is to create a duplicate Theme and test Navi+ on that version first.

Step 3: Go to App embeds, find “Navi+ on All pages”, and turn it on.

Step 4: Don’t forget to click “Save” to apply the changes.

After these 4 steps, Navi+ has been installed on your website and is ready to display. However, the process is not yet complete. Go back to the Navi+ app tab to actually turn on Publish Menu.

I.2. Select display settings and publish the menu.

Step 1: Click the Publish to website button.

Step 2: Turn on toggle "Publish menu by Insert/Replace method".

Step 3: Select the correct CSS Selector and replace/insert method

II) METHOD 2: ADD THIS MENU AS A SECTION/BLOCK IN THE SHOPIFY THEME

This method inserts the menu by adding a Block/Section in your Shopify theme. It’s a traditional approach, so I won’t describe it in detail. With this method, you don’t even need to “Turn on Navi+ in App Embeds” as required in Step 1 of Method 1.

Copy Embed ID of this menu, then insert to block named "Navi+ on Section" on Theme Sections. You can add a title, set up full width, and adjust the margin for this section after adding it.
