Introduction
No — you don’t need to edit your theme or code to install Roadmap. Our team handles all of the technical installation for you, including theme code injection where required.
For customization, Roadmap supports Shopify app blocks, which means you (or your store admin) can add and arrange widgets directly in the Shopify theme editor — no coding required.
How It Works
1. Code Injection (Handled by Our Team)
- Some features (like loyalty, bundles, reviews, or subscription widgets) require code snippets to be added to your theme.
- Our team does this for you during installation.
- This ensures widgets display correctly and performance is optimized.
👉 If you’re on a Shopify Core or Advanced plan, we also provide white glove setup — configuring your first set of features for you.
2. App Blocks (Self-Service, No Coding Needed)
- Roadmap provides app blocks (Shopify 2.0 compatible).
- You can add or move these blocks directly from the Shopify theme editor.
- Examples:
- Add a review widget to product pages.
- Display loyalty points balance in the customer account area.
- Add a bundle or discount widget to the cart page.
👉 App blocks give you flexibility to customize Roadmap without touching code.
Common Questions
