Where to find this: Shopify admin → Apps → Yuko Loyalty → Dashboard
Introduction
Run through this checklist after installing Yuko, and again after any big change such as publishing a new theme or switching to new customer accounts. Each check takes a moment and catches the most common reasons a widget doesn’t show.What problem this solves
Most “widget not showing” problems come from one of three things: the Yuko App embed is off on the published theme, the widget is switched off in Yuko, or the block was never added in the Shopify editor. This checklist covers all three.When to use
- Right after installation.
- After publishing a new theme.
- After turning on new customer accounts or adding checkout blocks.
- Before launching a big loyalty campaign.
Verification checklist
1
Confirm the loyalty program is enabled
Open Apps → Yuko Loyalty → Loyalty → Programs and check that Loyalty Program Status shows the program as enabled.
2
Confirm the Yuko App embed is on
On the Dashboard, the Setup Guide item Enable Yuko Theme App Extension should be complete. Click Refresh status if you’ve just turned it on. You can also check in the Theme Editor of your published theme under App embeds → Yuko App. See Theme App Embed.
3
Confirm you have an active earn rule and reward
In Loyalty → Programs, make sure at least one way to earn (for example Place an order) and one way to redeem are active.
4
Confirm your widgets are switched on
Open Loyalty → Widgets and check that each widget you want is switched on.
5
Confirm the blocks are placed
Theme blocks (product, cart, landing page) go in the Theme Editor. Checkout blocks go in the Checkout Editor. Customer account blocks go in the Customer Accounts editor. See Checkout UI Extension and Customer Account Extension.
6
Test on the live storefront
Open your store in a private window. Check that Floating Rewards appears, then log in as a test customer and add a product to the cart to see the cart messages.
7
Place a test order
Complete a low-value order as the test customer. Once it reaches the Earning Status set in Loyalty → Settings (Paid, Fulfilled or Delivered), open the customer in Customers and check that the points were added.
