Shop info: every field

The Shop Info box sits below the editor on every shop page. Two of its fields bind the page to a shop; the rest change what visitors read.

Anything you enter here overrides the network's value permanently. The next refresh will not undo it.

The binding

Field
What it does

Module ID

Which network this shop comes from

Shop ID at the network

The shop's identifier at that network

Both are required for the page to behave as a shop page. Without them it renders as an ordinary post: no cashback rate, no Go to shop button, no coupons.

They are filled in for you when a page is created from the Shop catalog. You only touch them when adding a page by hand.

Display fields

Name — what the shop is called on your site. Useful when the network's spelling is a catalogue code like ACME-INTL-US rather than a brand.

Domain — the shop's website. It does more than it looks: it is what the logo service uses to find a logo, and what AI writing uses to know what the shop actually sells. Worth filling in even when nothing displays it.

Cashback notice — overrides the cashback rate shown on this page. See Cashback rates.

SEO title — the title search engines show, when you want it to differ from the page title.

Meta description — the snippet search engines show under the title. Around 155 characters. Left empty, one is built from the shop's name and cashback rate.

Tagline — a short line under the shop name. One sentence; it is a label, not a description.

Validation days — roughly how long this merchant takes to approve an order, shown to members as an expectation. Imported from the network where the network supplies it.

Cashback terms — the conditions on earning cashback here: what counts, what does not. Shown as its own section, and only when you have written something.

Exclusions — what this shop never pays cashback on. Gift cards, marketplace sellers and third-party items are the usual ones.

Terms and exclusions are worth the effort on your busiest shops. Nearly every "why did I not get my cashback" question is answered by one of them, and a member who read it before buying does not send the email at all.

Sidebar area — free content placed in the shop page's sidebar, for this shop only. Accepts HTML.

Which fields the AI can fill in

If you have AI writing set up, it can produce the description, meta description, SEO title and tagline for you — one shop at a time or in bulk.

It works from the shop's domain, so a shop with that field empty gets noticeably worse results. See Writing shop pages with AI.

What is not here

The logo is the page's featured image, set in the normal WordPress way.

Categories are the Shop categories box — see Shop categories.

The commission, currency and network status are the network's, not yours. They are shown read-only in the Shop catalog and cannot be edited: the next refresh would overwrite them anyway. See The Shop catalog.
