Moon Phase on Shopify: what to expect

Register the domain customers actually land on. A store that redirects yourstore.myshopify.com to its own domain needs only its own domain.
Inside a product template the section shows on every product. For one product, create a separate template and assign it.

FAQ

Moon Phase for Shopify: frequently asked questions

Do I need an app to add Moon Phase to Shopify?

No. A Custom Liquid section in the theme editor takes the embed code. There is no app to install and no monthly app fee on your Shopify bill.

Will it survive a theme change?

The widget itself lives in your myNaturevista account. After switching themes, add the Custom Liquid section again and paste the same code.

My theme has no Custom Liquid section. What now?

Vintage themes do not have it. Use a "Custom HTML" or "Custom content" section if your theme offers one, or move to an Online Store 2.0 theme.

Does it slow down my store?

The widget loads lazily in its own frame after your page, so it does not delay your store's content.

Is Moon Phase free?

Yes. Moon Phase is included in every plan, the Free one too: three live widgets and 1,000 views a month, with a small "Powered by myNaturevista" mark. Paid plans remove the mark and raise the limits.
