Set up Rangoli Search & Filter

Open the installed app from Shopify admin → Apps. Do not enter credentials or a shop domain on a separate Rangoli login page.

  1. Plan: open Plans & billing and approve your plan in Shopify. Plans have a three-day trial; product limits count products, not variants.
  2. Catalog: choose searchable attributes and open Catalog sync. Start a sync and wait for Completed. Published, available products in the relevant collection determine storefront results.
  3. Theme backup: in Online Store → Themes, duplicate your theme and customize the unpublished copy.
  4. Collection grid: choose the desired collection template. Select Add section → Apps → Collection filters from Rangoli. Save. If the app block is unavailable, confirm the theme supports app blocks and the app is installed.
  5. Avoid duplicate grids: once Rangoli shows products, hide the theme's original Product grid section in that template. Keep the collection banner if wanted. Do not leave two product grids visible.
  6. Autocomplete: open App embeds, enable Rangoli search autocomplete and save. This uses a standard theme search input; a custom search widget may require theme-specific integration. Do not disable your theme's normal search navigation until tested.
  7. Preview: test desktop and mobile, product links, filters, sorting, pagination, clear filters and a query with no results. Check each collection template that you use. Configure badges/banners only after the basic grid works.
  8. Publish: publish the tested theme copy through Shopify when ready. Theme editor Save is required for block/embed changes to take effect.

Undo or uninstall

Hide/remove the Rangoli Collection filters app block, disable its search app embed, re-enable the theme's original Product grid, and save. If you remove the app, confirm the native grid remains enabled. Your products and Shopify manual collection order are not changed by this setup.

Troubleshooting

Blank results: check sync completion, product publication, collection membership and plan limit. Duplicate products: hide one of the two grid sections. Missing autocomplete: check App embeds, Save, and the theme search input. A collection's count is not the whole-store product count.

Current release

Search, filtering and merchandising do not require customer-event permissions. Shopper tracking and checkout-conversion attribution are disabled. Voice search and persistent wishlist integration are not offered.
