How the customizer works.
Install, build templates, ship custom products. The pages below cover everything from your first template to the print-ready file that lands in your fulfilment bucket.
Category
Getting Started
Install the app and ship your first customizable product.
Category
Building
Templates, canvases, placeholders, and the customer-facing customizer.
Templates 101
What a template is, the pieces it's made of, and how it connects to a Shopify product.
Text placeholders
Configure text slots customers fill in — fonts, colours, sizing, character limits, stroke and shadow.
Image, sticker, background, and mask placeholders
The four non-text placeholder types — what they do, when to use each.
Sides and output files
Front, back, sleeves, mugs that wrap — and the print-ready files Pixel Wrangler ships to your fulfilment partner.
Surcharges and Spend & Save discounts
Charge more when a design costs more to print, and nudge customers toward bigger orders with tiered discounts.
The storefront customizer
What your customer actually sees and does — from clicking Customise to landing in cart.
Styling the customizer — Brand & Language
Make the customizer look and sound like your store — colours, layout, every customer-facing string.
A tour of the template builder
The builder workspace — the canvas, the layers panel, the toolbar, and the preview — and where each control lives.
Category
Order Flow
What happens after a customer buys — files, emails, fulfilment.
Order flow — what happens after checkout
From paid order to print-ready file in your fulfilment hands.
Customizing order confirmation emails
Display custom product thumbnails and preview links in your Shopify order confirmation emails.
Editing a customer's design on an order
Fix a typo or a slipped image on a placed order, regenerate the print artwork, and keep the customer's original safe.
Line item properties reference
Every _pw_ property Pixel Wrangler attaches to cart lines, and the Settings presets that control which ones appear.

Wrangler AI
Background removal, image generation, and graphic text inside the customizer.
Wrangler AI overview
Four AI tools built into the customizer — background removal, image generation, style transfer, graphic text.
Background removal, up close
How the one-click background remover works, where it shows up, what it costs, and the images it handles well (and badly).
Generating images with AI
How image generation works inside the customizer — quality levels, auto-clean, cost and volume pricing, and writing prompts that print well.
Graphic text — words into artwork
How graphic text generates stylised lettering from a plain phrase, how it differs from a text placeholder, and when to reach for each.
