External Services

This plugin connects to the Shopify Admin API to fetch your product data.

Service Provider: Shopify Inc.
Data Transmitted: Store URL, OAuth credentials (one-time), and product queries
When: During setup, when searching products in editor, and when displaying products (cached for 1 hour)

Privacy: All Admin API calls are made server-side and the plugin itself sends no visitor data to Shopify. Product data is cached locally. Note that visitors’ browsers load product images directly from Shopify’s CDN (cdn.shopify.com), and product links open on your Shopify store, so Shopify may receive standard request data (such as IP address) from visitors in the same way as any embedded image or outbound link.

Configuration

Easy OAuth Setup

1. Navigate to Shopify Products in WordPress admin
2. Enter your Shopify Store URL (e.g., your-store.myshopify.com)
3. Paste your Client ID from Shopify
4. Paste your Client Secret from Shopify
5. Click “Connect to Shopify”
6. You’ll be redirected to Shopify to authorize the connection
7. After authorizing, you’re automatically redirected back – done!

The plugin automatically obtains the access token via secure OAuth and detects the latest Shopify API version.

Usage

1. Edit any page or post in WordPress
2. Click “+” to add a block and search for “Shopify Products”
3. Choose Products Mode (select individual products) or Collection Mode (display a collection)
4. Use the live search to find and add products
5. Customize title, description, and product limit as needed

The block displays as a touch-friendly carousel on mobile and with arrow navigation on desktop, or as a responsive grid (choose Layout → Grid in the block’s Display Options and set the desktop column count). Single products get a special two-column featured layout.

Not using the block editor? Use the [products_showcase] shortcode in the Classic editor, text widgets, or page builders:

[products_showcase collection="123456789"]
[products_showcase products="111,222,333" title="Featured"]
[products_showcase collection="123456789" layout="grid" columns="4"]

Supported attributes: collection, products, limit, layout, columns, title, description, button_text, button_url, button_new_tab, new_tab, hover_image, card_width, disable_padding, and color options. See the GitHub README for the full list.
