Shopify apps used in this Template


Are you looking to offer a personalized shopping experience for your customers on Shopify? Imagine letting your customers create custom t-shirts by choosing from pre-made designs or uploading their own artwork, adding personalized text, and seeing a live preview of their creation right on your product page. This level of customization not only enhances customer satisfaction but also boosts your store’s appeal.

 In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to build a custom t-shirt feature on your Shopify product page, ensuring a seamless and interactive experience for your shoppers. Let's dive in and see how you can elevate your store with this engaging feature!

Steps to Create a T-Shirt with Text and Image.

1. Install the App

2. Select a Template or add new product Option 

  • You can use a template to speed things up or create options from scratch.
  • Choose the T-shirt (or any other product) you want to customize. You can select a single product or multiple products.
  • Add options for customers to personalize their T-shirt. Include text fields for custom text, file upload fields for images, and image swatches for pre-made designs.

3. Create conditioner logic

  • We're going to set up conditional logic here. We have two button swatches: one for pre-made designs and another for uploading a design. We need to ensure that when a customer clicks on the pre-made designs option, the image swatches are displayed, and when they click on the upload design option, the upload feature appears.

4. Enable Live Preview

  • Enable the live preview feature in the app settings. Select the areas where you want customers to place their design and text.

5. Activate and Save

  • Once everything looks good, activate the custom options and save your changes.

And that's it! Now your customers can create their own personalized T-shirts with ease, seeing their designs come to life in real time. This not only enhances their shopping experience but also helps increase your sales. You can also try the template below.
