How can I display delivery dates using the app block?

The easiest way to show delivery dates is by using the Delm Delivery Widget app block. This allows you to place the widget anywhere on your product page using Shopify's visual editor without touching any code.

Adding the widget to your theme

To get started, you will need to open your Shopify theme settings:

1. Go to your Shopify Admin > Online Store > Themes.
2. Click Customize next to your active theme.
3. Use the top dropdown menu to navigate to Products > Default product.
4. In the left sidebar, locate the Product information section and click Add block.
5. Select Delm Delivery Widget from the list.
6. Drag the block to your preferred position (usually near the price or "Add to cart" button).
7. Click Save in the top right corner.

Configuring the block settings

When you click on the Delm Delivery Widget block inside the theme editor, you can customize how it behaves:

• Widget ID: By default, this is empty, and Delm will show your Default widget. If you want to use a specific design, paste its unique ID here.
• Product: This should be connected to the Product dynamic source so the widget knows which product to display data for.
• Watch variant ID selector: This tells Delm which part of your page to monitor for changes. It is pre-set to look for the hidden "ID" field that Shopify uses to add items to the cart. You usually do not need to change this.

Troubleshooting

Variant updates

The displayed delivery date will only change if you have configured different rules (like a different processing time) for your variants.

If you have different rules set up but the date stays the same when a customer switches variants, please see our detailed troubleshooting guide: Why is the widget not updating when I change variants?

Widget visibility

If you have added the block but the widget is not appearing at all, check these settings:

• App status: Ensure the app is enabled in your Delm dashboard.
• Visibility rules: Check General > Visibility in the Delm app. You might have a rule hiding the widget for that specific product (e.g., hiding for out-of-stock items).
• Published status: Ensure your widget is set to Published in the widget editor.
• Plan limits: Check your usage in the Billing section. If you have exceeded the monthly view limit of your current plan, the widget will stop appearing until the next billing cycle or until you upgrade.
