Stationery

Order emails, the packing slip and the gift card, set in the same design as the theme.

The second act

A store is more than its storefront. Orders arrive as emails; parcels arrive with a packing slip; gift cards arrive as a code. Shopify sends all of these from templates in its own admin, and by default they look like Shopify, not like the store. Stationery sets them in the project's design — its palette, its type, its corners, its logo — so the second thing a customer sees matches the first.

What it makes

  • Order confirmation, shipping confirmation (with tracking), abandoned checkout, gift card and customer account welcome emails.
  • The packing slip, laid out for print with the brand's band and type.

Every piece is previewed with a sample order, and every piece is Liquid that Shopify's notification editor accepts as it is.

Where it goes

Shopify has no way for an app to write these templates, so each is pasted once: Settings → Notifications → the template → Edit code for emails, Settings → Shipping and delivery → Packing slips → Edit for the slip. Copy Liquid puts it on the clipboard; Download all gives a zip of every piece. The logo in a live email comes from Settings → Notifications → Customize in Shopify; the preview shows the brand kit's.

Language

The words in each piece are written in the app language you have set when you open the page. Switch the app language in the footer and copy again to get another.
