Automatic placement on Product pages

Manual placement through code edition and theme customization

To manually add the Fast Tag on Shopify, please edit your Online Store Theme. You need to follow two steps:

  • Edit your theme code to define the Bigblue Fast Tag block.
  • Customize your theme to Inject this block where you want to display a Fast Tag.

Product Fast Tag - Edit your theme code

To add a Bigblue Fast Tag block to your Product Theme Templates, go to Online Store > Themes, click on the dots and on Edit code

In your product page .liquid file, - named main-product.liquid , or something else, probably similar, - add the following pieces of code:

  1. In the {%- for block in section.blocks -%} part, add the following block.type case:
{%- when 'bigblue_fast_tag' -%}
  <bigblue
    data-component="fast-tag-product"
    data-product="{{ product.id }}"
    data-variant="{{ product.selected_or_first_available_variant.id }}"
  ></bigblue>

  1. Under the {% schema %} part, define the fast tag block for your product pages:
{
  "type": "bigblue_fast_tag",
  "name": "Bigblue Fast Tag",
  "settings": []
},
  1. Save your changes

Product Fast Tag - Customize your theme

To add Bigblue Fast Tag blocks, go to Online Store > Themes, click on Customize

  1. Select the Product Theme Template you want to modify


  2. On the left, in the Product (information) part, click on Add block and choose Bigblue Fast Tag


  3. Drag and drop it where you want the Fast Tag to be displayed
  4. Save your changes and go to your product page: you should see a Fast Tag!

    🎉 You have successfully injected the Fast Tag on Product pages.


Fast Tag not appearing immediately? Both Shopify and Bigblue have caching systems to ensure the fastest fast tag injection. To achieve optimal performance, these caches may need time to expire usually after waiting for up to 10 minutes. However, in most cases, 5 minutes is sufficient. If the issue persists and you still don't see the Fast Tag after 10 minutes, follow our troubleshooting guide.


Cart Fast Tag - Edit your theme code

Cart Theme are usually subject to more specific customisations, it’s frequent to have only a few sections defined in the code, that do not support custom block addition. Hence, we encourage you to approach your Theme developper team to identify the right .liquid file to update in your Theme code, something like cart_main.liquid or cart_page.liquid (not exclusive).

In that file, you can then add the following code where you want the Bigblue Fast Tag to appear:

<bigblue data-component="fast-tag-cart"> </bigblue>

On WooCommerce


Automatic placement on Product pages


To use this method, install or update the Bigblue WooCommerce plugin. Once the automatic placement is enabled, no additional action is required. The Fast Tags should be displayed on your site's product pages after a few seconds.

The injected tag is automatically updated when a different product variation is selected.


Manual placement on Product pages


To add Fast Tags manually to your shop, you need to edit the PHP files generating your site pages. In the most common cases, they are available on  /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/templates .


  • To display a Fast Tag on WooCommerce, add the following code snippet in the HTML code, replacing YOUR_PRODUCT_ID with a product ID, and YOUR_VARIATION_ID, if existing, with a variation ID:
<bigblue data-component="fast-tag-product" data-product="YOUR_PRODUCT_ID" data-variant="YOUR_VARIATION_ID"></bigblue>

  • Depending on how you plan to inject this snippet, you may benefit from WooCommerce globals to automatically infer the product ID and variant ID of the product page. For example when editing short-description.php to inject a badge on a product with or without variations:
<div class="woocommerce-product-details__short-description">
    <?php echo $short_description; ?>
    <?php 
    $product = wc_get_product();
    if ($product) {
        if ( $product->is_type( 'variable' ) ) {
            $childrens = $product->get_children();
            if ($childrens) {
                $defaultvariation = "";
                foreach ($childrens as $productChild) {
                    $defaultvariation = wc_get_product($productChild)->get_variation_id();
                }
                echo "<bigblue data-component=\"fast-tag-product\" data-product=\"".$product->get_id()."\" data-variant=\"".$defaultvariation."\"></bigblue>";
            }
            wc_enqueue_js("
                $( 'form.variations_form' ).on('show_variation', function(_, data){
                    var updatedVariation = data.variation_id.toString()
                    if( updatedVariation != \"\" ) {
                        var tags = document.body.querySelectorAll('bigblue[data-component=\"fast-tag-product\"]')
                        if (tags !== undefined){
                            for (var i=0; i < tags.length; i++) {
                                if (tags[i].getAttribute(\"data-product\") === \"".$product->get_id()."\") {
                                    tags[i].setAttribute(\"data-variant\", updatedVariation);
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                });
            ");
         } else {
            echo "<bigblue data-component=\"fast-tag-product\" data-product=\"".$product->get_id()."\"></bigblue>";
         }
    }
    ?>
</div>
