I absolutely love using PageFly. CUSTOMIZATION There is quite a bit of customization available that you just don't get in native Shopify. I highly recommend PageFly for all their amazing visual additions. LEARNING There is a bit of a learning curve, as I've delved into using CSS and HTML coding within PageFly layouts, but they work great. A few helpful tips: - Create PageFly sections, not pages - Insert the pre-done PageFly elements that most closely align with what you want to create. - Use the HTML Class ID feature for each section, and have AI (I use chatgpt) to help with the CSS coding to customize the section further. - Publish the section - Go into Shopify and add the section to your store I've made some GREAT visuals this way. ADDING SECTIONS TO SHOPIFY I about had a heart attack when my PageFly sections were capped at 6 to use within Shopify. HOWEVER.... workaround - add in the PageFly sections on a HIDDEN PAGE in Shopify, NOT within an unpublished theme. Only Published themes will let you add in all your handy work. Their customer service helped me root out that issue quickly, for which I was grateful. SHOPIFY SECTIONS While there are many Shopify elements you can import in directly while in the PageFly app, there are also many that aren't available unless you are directly within Shopify (like the Product Grid with the various search elements). This is why I use Sections for PageFly, not the whole page. You cannot edit a PageFly page within Shopify, which is why... sections. If you have already made PageFly pages, highly recommend converting to PageFly Sections. ALL IN ALL I give this website design creator app a 5 out of 5. I would recommend to others. EASY to use for beginners, and LOTS OF FUNCIONALITY for those brave enough to delve into the coding aspects. The latter, to be frank, isn't difficult, if you use ChatGPT model 4o. Model 5 just runs into walls on this stuff. I don't know if this review will include my site, but all the handy dandy updates I'm doing via PageFly will be shown on my completely redone store this week. I'll update here if possible so you can see what it does. I'm quite excited. Get PageFly, it's worth the cost.

Of all the PODs I've researched, this and a couple others made the cut. In the end, Printify I've found is the best for 1. Design to Product (MockUps) - Within its Admin Console (most products have accurate mockups - other PODs may or may not have mockups, and many that do note that the mockup you're looking at is not an accurate depiction). 2. Quality Selection - You can select which print provider you want to use for printing, and you can see the ratings for them. 3. Integration - The integration with Shopify is the most seamless I've found yet. Also, everything loads correctly, and quickly, every time. 4. Product Creation - The product page in their Admin Console is so well laid out and sections classified, you have a high level of control over your various product elements. 5. Customer Service - They are incredibly quick to respond to any of my queries or assistance. I once reported a mockup glitch, responded and resolved to within hours. Orders and sample orders placed - they request service feedback. Need something done quickly? They'll take care of it. VERY happy. 6. Product Selection - They have a wide variety of product options, so if you prefer just 1 POD partner, start with Printify. I tried adding another few PODs but the difference between them and Printify is apparent in my wishing the other PODs had all the wonderful features of Printify. For any looking for a POD partner, I hope this helps you in your selection. I spent weeks, okay maybe months, looking into POD options... This was my choice. Not just from the research, but also from testing a few out. So, take advantage of my leg work, skip the all the research and testing time of PODs yourself, and just start with Printify. Or add them as a POD provider... you may find yourself switching all your products over to them like I did.
