 Activating the App on Storefront

After completing the basic setup, you need to enable the app on your Shopify storefront.

This is a one-time process.

🔧 Steps to Enable YMM Popup

  1. Go to Shopify Admin.

  2. Click Online Store.

  3. Select Themes.

  4. Click Customize (or Edit Theme).

  5. Click the App Embeds icon (3rd icon on the left sidebar).

  • Click on a variant (e.g., 300HP)

  • Automatically get redirected to the matching collection

  • See only compatible products


 


 

Advanced Features

The app includes several powerful advanced features to improve filtering accuracy and user experience.


              

Search Options

This feature allows you to ask customers what they are looking for before selecting their vehicle.

For example:

  • Teeth

  • Wheels

  • Chippers

  • Engine Parts

  • Accessories

 

How to Configure Search Options

  1. Go to Settings → Search Options.

  2. Add your desired options.

  3. Click Save.

     ⚠ Very Important:
     Products must be tagged with exact matching names in Shopify.

    Example:
    If your option is:
    Teeth

     Then the product tag must be exactly:
     Teeth

     (Tag matching is case-sensitive.)

 

 

  1. How It Works

    If a customer selects:

    BMW → 3 Series → 300HP → Teeth

    Only products:

    • Inside that YMM collection

    • Tagged with “Teeth”

    will be displayed.

    This ensures highly accurate search filtering.

 

  1. When a user selects an option, the search results will be filtered by that tag (e.g., showing only "Teeth" for "BMW 300HP").

 

You can see here we have added 2 products.

 

Now add “Teeth” tag in a product

 

Note that we have add tag only single product while there was 2 products in collections.

Now as user visit front end and select teeth.

 

 

 

User will see only those product who has been added “Teeth”as tag.

You can manage, edit, or remove existing vehicle combinations anytime.

Go to Manage Data section.

From here you can:

  • Delete vehicle combinations using the delete icon

  • Edit existing entries

  • Manually add a new vehicle using “Add New Vehicle”

When adding manually, make sure:

This gives you full control over your YMM database.
