You wanted us to update the WordPress plugin, and we listened! Now you can remove the hashbang #!<\/strong> from your URL and embed as many shop pages as you like with WordPress. At the click of a button!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been busy working on three improvements since the last update earlier this year. Here\u2019s what\u2019s new:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Add as many shop pages as you like via shortcode in WordPress<\/li>\n
  2. Remove the bashbang #!<\/strong> in your shop URL with a single click<\/li>\n
  3. Add your own content above and below your embedded shops<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    1. Shortcodes for the integration of any number of shop pages<\/h2>\n

    Shortcode helps you set up wordpress deeplinks for categories, topics, search results or detail pages in the following format:<\/p>\n

    [spreadshop deeplink=”YourShopPage”]<\/p>\n

    If you\u2019ve not yet used the WordPress plugin, you\u2019ll need to set it up before you can make use of the feature. Find out how in this help article<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    How to embed by shortcode<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Go to the shop page you want to embed. Let\u2019s say you want to e.g. display your posters on one of your WordPress pages. Then go to:<\/p>\n

    https:\/\/shop.spreadshirt.com\/YourShopname\/wallprints+posters?q=P180<\/p>\n

    Now copy the deeplink aka the part of the URL behind “\/YourShopname\/” and paste it into the shortcode. It will look like this:<\/p>\n

    [spreadshop deeplink=”wallprints+posters?q=P180″]<\/p>\n

    Then add the shortcode to your WordPress page. Done! The posters from your Spreadshop are now tied in with your website.<\/p>\n

    Please note: The shortcode is also valid without a deeplink. Just add [spreadshop] to a WordPress page to include your Spreadshop homepage. In your Shpreadshop settings, you can still use the shop URL (just once) to tie in your shop like before.<\/p>\n

    Important notes<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Add just one shortcode per WordPress page<\/li>\n
    2. Make sure that your deeplinks work<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      2. Remove the #! bit from your URL<\/h2>\n

      In the past, every shop page integrated with a plugin had a so-called hashbang (#!) in the URL. Removing the hashbang with a WordPress plugin installed wasn\u2019t possible. And you needed coding skills to get rid of it.<\/p>\n

      We\u2019ve changed this now. You can remove the annoying hashbang snippet of your URL if you just click on it. Moreover, the URL improvement will also boost the Google ranking of your embedded shop pages!<\/p>\n

      Instead of hashbang URLs:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      https:\/\/www.YourWordpressSite.com\/shop\/#!\/<\/p>\n

      https:\/\/www. YourWordpressSite.com \/shop\/#!\/women+sweatshirts+%26+hoodies?q=P37<\/p>\n

      Your URLs will now look like this<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

      https:\/\/ YourWordpressSite.com\/shop\/<\/p>\n

      https:\/\/www. YourWordpressSite.com \/shop\/women+sweatshirts+%26+hoodies?q=P37<\/p>\n

      How to remove the Hashbang<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      Go to the plugin settings on your WordPress page. Click on “Optimized URL” to deactivate the hashbang in your URL. Then check your old links to make sure they are still set up properly.<\/p>\n

      3. Fill embedded shop pages with your own content<\/h2>\n

      Next to being able to integrate any Spreadshop page with WordPress, the shortcode feature also makes it possible to add content above and below the embedded shop pages. For example, you can use it to your advantage to add a header above your integrated shop page or write an SEO text below it.<\/p>\n

      And that\u2019s very good news for your Spreadshop! The WordPress plugin update gives you more freedom in designing your shop integration while simplifying and improving the URL capabilities. \u00a0Google will like your shop more, and you will in turn benefit from the results.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also a new Spreadshop <\/em>Facebook <\/em>group<\/em> where you can ask questions and exchange ideas with other Shop Owners.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
