Skimlink Java Script

Topic summary

The discussion addresses how to integrate Skimlinks JavaScript code into a Shopify store.

Implementation Steps:

  • Obtain the Skimlinks code from your publisher account
  • Access Shopify theme editor and locate the theme.liquid file
  • Two placement options are suggested:
    • Inside the <head> section (OneCommerce recommendation)
    • Before the closing </body> tag (EcomGraduates recommendation)
  • Replace placeholder publisher ID (XXXXX) with your actual Skimlinks account ID
  • Save changes and test the implementation

Important Considerations:

  • Only add the code once to avoid conflicts
  • Test on a development store before deploying to live site
  • Skimlinks is a third-party service; contact their support if integration issues arise
  • Verify links are working properly after implementation

Hello there!

  1. Log in to your Skimlinks account and navigate to the “Settings” section.
  2. Copy the Skimlinks JavaScript code provided by Skimlinks.
  3. Log in to your Shopify Admin panel and navigate to the “Online Store” section.
  4. Select “Themes” and then click on the “Actions” button.
  5. Click on “Edit code”
  6. Locate the theme.liquid file and paste the Skimlinks code immediately before the closing tag.
  7. Save the changes and preview the website to make sure the Skimlinks code is working properly.

It’s important to note that you should only add the Skimlinks code to one theme.liquid file in your store, as adding it multiple times could cause issues. Additionally, Skimlinks recommend testing the code on a development store before adding it to your live store to ensure it works properly.

Keep in mind that Skimlinks is a third-party service, so if you have any issues with the integration, you should check their documentation or contact their support team for further assistance.
