Steps to add a link to the Wishlist page

When you display Wishlist button, it is recommended to place a link pointing to the Wishlist page, somewhere on the store. There are 3 types of Wishlist links and you can choose any one of them.

  • Smart Link
  • Link in Navigation Menu
  • Custom Link

For the rest of the tutorial, we shall assume that the URL of the link is default /a/wishlist. In case the URL is different on your store, please substitute accordingly.

Smart Link

  1. In the Shopify Admin, navigate to Apps => Smart Wishlist => Configure Appearance => Wishlist Link
  2. Select the box labeled Display Smart Link on all pages.
  3. Click Save.
  4. Visit the storefront and refresh the page twice. A link pointing to the Wishlist page shall automatically appear on the left of the page. You can also customise the link using various options provided.
  5. Note that there is no option for URL. This is because the URL is automatically inherited from Settings. This article explains how to change the URL

Link in Navigation Menu

1. In Shopify Admin, browse to Online Store => Navigation
2. In the list of menus displayed, click on the menu which is being displayed in the header of your store. For e.g. Main Menu
3. Under Menu Items, click on Add Menu Item
4. A popup shall appear. Under Link, enter the relative path for the wishlist page /a/wishlist. Under Name, enter whatever you want the link to be called. Click Add
5. Click Save .

Custom Link


Sometimes, there is not enough space in the navigation menu. In such cases you may prefer adding the link somewhere else. However, this requires editing the liquid files and manually adding HTML code to it. Ask your Developer to do this for you. You can also contact our Support Team for this purpose.
