Overview

Store Locator comes built in with pins that appear on each location of your map.

If you are looking for something more customized to your store's style, you can replace our default pins with your own preferred custom images.

To replace the pins on the map with custom images, please follow the steps below.

Set-Up

1. From the  Shopify admin, select Settings.

   

2. Select Files.

   

3. Select Upload files.

   

4. Use the file manager to navigate to, select, and upload your custom image.

   

5. Repeat Steps 3 & 4 until you have uploaded all custom images.

   Note: You will need the URLs for these images later so ensure you copy and paste them to notepad or do the next steps in another window so you can refer to them.

   

6. From the Shopify admin, select Apps.
7. Select Store Locator.
8. Select Settings.

   

9. Select Display Settings.

   

10. Copy and paste this code into the Page Footer HTML field: 

    <script>
    old_add_markers = add_markers;
    add_markers = function (){
     // this is the default Icon image displayed on the map
     mainIcon = "####";
     // this is the icon used to display the users address
     youIcon = "!!!!";
     // this is a shadow used for both icons
     myshadow = "****";
     add_markers = old_add_markers;
     add_markers ();
    }
    </script>
    <style>
    #direction_destination, .addresses li {
    /*this should also be the default Icon image displayed on the map */
    background-image: url("####");
    }
    </style>
