How to activate Gelacy Selector on your store through Theme Editor

Ready to show your Gelacy language and currency selector to customers? This guide will walk you through enabling the App embed blocks in your Shopify theme so visitors can easily switch languages and currencies on your store.

Gelacy's selector works seamlessly with all modern Online Shopify themes. Following Shopify's guidelines, you'll need to activate the selector through your Theme Editor to make it visible on your storefront.

I. Understanding App Embed Blocks​

App embed blocks are Shopify's way of letting apps add features directly to your theme. Think of them as building blocks that bring app functionality - like Gelacy's language and currency selector - right into your store design.

These blocks can include product reviews, pricing displays, ratings, or in Gelacy's case, your multilingual selector. You can easily manage them through Shopify's Theme Editor - adding, removing, or customizing as needed.

II. Quick Activation from GLC App​

The fastest way to activate your selector:

  1. "Selector settings" menu inside your Gelacy
  2. Click the direct link provided - it takes you straight to the Theme Editor
  3. The Gelacy App embed toggle is already enabled (Toggle on if it's off)
  4. Hit Save to complete
