To attract vendors to your Shopify Marketplace, create a registration page. This article provides a basic guide, which you can customize as needed. Once a vendor submits a request, it will be sent to your Shipturtle application for approval.

Creating a Liquid Template for Vendor Registration

1. Access the Code Editor

  • From your Shopify Admin panel, navigate to `Online Store -> Actions -> Edit Code`.

2. Create a New Template

  • Go to `Templates -> Add a new template`.

  • Select "Page" and name it (e.g., "registerVendor").

  • Click on "Create template".

3. Generate Template Code in Shipturtle

  • In the Shipturtle app, go to `Settings > Multi Vendor Settings > Customize Website`.

  • Under "Add a Vendor Registration page", click "Generate Template code".

  • Copy the generated code.

4. Optional: Create a Thank You Page

  • Create a simple “Thank You for Registering” page on your website to redirect vendors upon submission.

  • Enter the link to this page in the "URL to redirect when vendor is registered" box.

5. Insert the Template Code

  • Paste the copied code into the "registerVendor" template.

  • Click "Save".

6. Add Additional Script

  • Paste the following code in the appropriate line in the "registerVendor" file:

<script src="{{'countries-states.js'| asset_url }}" defer></script>

7. Create countries-states.js File

In the Assets directory, create a new file named `countries-states.js`.

8. Populate countries-states.js File

  • Download the .txt file from the "Generate Template Code" pop-up in the Shipturtle app.

  • Copy the code from the .txt file and paste it into the `countries-states.js` file you created.

By following these steps, you will have a functional vendor registration page on your Shopify Marketplace, integrated with the Shipturtle app for approval processing.

Creating a Vendor Registration Page

1. Create the Vendor Registration Page

  • Go to `Online Store -> Pages`.

  • Add a new page titled "Sell with us" (or any name you prefer).

  • Leave the Content blank.

  • Set the template for the page to "page.registerVendor" (the template created earlier).

2. Add the Vendor Listing Page to the Website’s Navigation

  • Go to `Navigation -> Menu`.

  • Select the menu where you want to place the Vendor listing page (e.g., "Main menu" or "Footer menu").

  • Click on the desired menu.

  • Click "Add menu item", name it (e.g., "Sell with us"), and link it to the "Sell with us" page created in Step 1.

  • Click "Save".

3. Match the Registration Page Format to Your Theme

  • If the format does not match your theme or looks poorly formatted, hire a developer to make modifications. This typically takes only a few hours.

A quick tip: Access the plain Liquid code file from your Shopify Admin panel by going to `Online Store -> Actions -> Edit Code`. Your developer will need to add a CSS file and apply it to the code.

4. Add Custom Fields to the Form

  • Type the desired code in the appropriate position of the .liquid file you created.

  • Adjust the text as needed (refer to the provided screenshot for guidance).

  • This additional field will be displayed in the ‘Notes’ field in the Shipturtle app.
