On pages where the Magic Button functionality is available, clicking the button will open your Shopify backend screen for the particular page, product, collection or article you’re currently on.

Here’s a detailed outline of what happens on each type of Shopify page when you click:

  • Homepage: The button will open the homepage settings page, allowing you to control such things as the homepage’s title and meta description, Google Analytics and other integration codes and storefront password settings. Note that editing the content of the homepage varies by theme, so we’re not able to automatically open those settings.
  • Collection page: The button will open the edit collection page for the collection you were on when you clicked the button. This allows you to update the name, handle, description, image and SEO settings for the collection page in question.
  • Product page: The button will open the edit product page for the collection you were on when you clicked the button. This allows you to update the name, handle, description, images, SEO settings, variants, inventory, pricing, collection, tag, status, channel and vendor settings for the product in question.
  • Blog page (this refers to the “main” page of each blog that has a list of the latest blog posts; for the blog article pages, see the next bullet): The button will open the settings page for this blog, allowing you to rename it, change handles and adjust SEO settings as well as manage discussion and other preferences.
  • Article page (this refers to the standalone page that features only the content of a single blog post): The button will open the edit blog post page for the article you were on when you clicked the button, allowing you to edit the content, SEO settings, title, image and status settings of the blog post in question.
  • Page page (this refers to pages using the page building tool under “Online Store”): The button will open the edit page for page you were on when you clicked the button, allowing you to edit the content, SEO settings and title for the page in question.

Please note that the app does not work on account management, cart, checkout or other pages.
