Editing the account template

Stores using the classic customer accounts can show a customer's referral URL with a copy field right within their customers/account template. Let's dive in!

  1. From your Rivo Dashboard, go to Settings.

  2. Click Developer Toolkit.

  3. Enable Rivo Shopify Metafields.

  4. From your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes.

  5. Click Actions > Edit code.

  6. Search for the account page liquid template in your theme code (e.g. main-account.liquid).

  7. Add the example code below to your liquid file.

<!-- Main div containing the heading, input field, and copy button -->
<div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; align-items: start; padding: 20px 20px 20px 40px !important; background-color: #f2f2f2; border-radius: 5px;">

<!-- Heading text -->
<h3>Your referral link to share with friends</h3>

<!-- Disabled input field displaying the referral along with the Rivo metafield -->
<input id="referralLink" type="text" value="https://{{ shop.domain }}/?referral_code={{ customer.metafields.custom.rivo.value.referral_code }}" disabled style="margin-bottom: 10px; width:500px; padding: 15px !important; border: 2px solid white; background: white !important;">

<!-- Button triggering the clipboard copy function -->
<button id="copyButton" onclick="copyToClipboard()">Copy to Clipboard</button>

</div>

<script>
// Function to copy the referral link to the clipboard
async function copyToClipboard() {
// Retrieving the referral link and copy button
let referralLink = document.getElementById('referralLink').value;
let copyButton = document.getElementById('copyButton');

try {
// Copying the referral link to clipboard and changing button text
await navigator.clipboard.writeText(referralLink);
console.log('Referral link copied to clipboard!');
copyButton.innerText = "Copied!";

// Resetting button text after 3 seconds
setTimeout(function() {
copyButton.innerText = "Copy to Clipboard";
}, 3000);
} catch (err) {
// Error handling
console.error('Failed to copy link: ', err);
}
}
</script>

πŸ“ Note: We're using {{ shop.domain }} in Liquid to get your shop's primary domain and {{ customer.metafields.custom.rivo.value.referral_code }} to get the referral code from a Rivo Metafield.
