Hi @Ankit_kumar5 ,

Thanks for reaching out. That is an excellent question.

You would need to alter the product template slightly to collect personalization information such as engraving. There is a step-by-step guide available on this link.

Please note that this is an advanced tutorial and is not supported by Shopify. Knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Liquid is required. Consider hiring a Shopify Expert if you aren't comfortable doing the steps in the tutorial.

If you’re using 2.0 themes, you can check this fantastic third-party tutorial on adding the engraving field to the product page. It does mention the Dawn theme, however, this theme is pretty much the base of all 2.0 themes, so you should be able to apply the same changes. 

I’d like to share with you a few of my favorite apps for this feature. Infinite Product Options has a free plan and allows you to add customization, such as a text field and image or swatch selector.

Product Personalizer is a little more unique and allows you to add your own custom fonts so your customer can preview the text they want to be engraved. The basic plan is only 9.99. Check it out here.

If you think you may need something a little different or with some added functionality, you can browse the whole list of product customizing apps here.

Also, I don't know if you have anything planned for BFCM this year, but now is the time to make some preparations. BFCM is one of the biggest sales weekends of the year and sees the start of the holiday season as well. Every year my go-to is this BFCM Checklist. It allows me to make sure that I am making the best use of my time and resources and it really helps take the pressure off by starting early. It is well worth the read should you be interested!

I hope I've been able to help! Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

Hi @Ankit_kumar5,

I recommend exploring the Easify Product Options app to easily set up engraving options with additional charges 🤗.
