Where the switch is
Customize the theme, then open App embeds. Shopify’s embed guide says an embed can run on every page once, unlike a block you place in one section.
If the app is installed and nothing shows on the store, the embed is the first thing to check.
Product Label Pro
Product Label Pro adds up to three labels on a product. You type the words on the product, pick pill, ribbon, or outline in the app, and choose the corner in the theme. The free plan can launch. Normal is $2 a month and Plus is $4.99 a month.
The words should match a real offer. Creating that offer is Shopify Discount Codes.
Other embeds
A free-shipping bar is the same kind of switch: install, enable the embed, set the threshold. The bar is a message. The shipping rate in Settings is what checkout charges.
The rate itself is How to Set Shopify Shipping Rates.
Check the card
Open a collection on the storefront. The badge should sit on the photo, readable on a phone. If it covers the product, move the corner.
Dawn is the theme this sits on. Editing Dawn is The Dawn Theme on Shopify.
