1. What is the Engraving block?

The Engraving Option allows customers to add a personalized engraving to their product, such as a name, initials, or a special message. This feature is commonly used for:

  • Jewelry & Accessories – Adding initials or meaningful dates.
  • Gifts & Keepsakes – Engraving a special message on items like watches, pens, or keychains.
  • Custom Products – Personalizing phone cases, wooden crafts, or leather goods.

This option helps stores offer a personalized shopping experience, making products feel more special and unique.

2. How to set up the Engraving?

Step 1: Create a product as the Engraving option

In Shopify admin, click on Products tab > Add product, and create your new engraving product with its price & inventory quantity.

⚠️ Note: The engraving product CANNOT be out-of-stock to make it shown on site. We recommend setting this product to Untrack quantity or, if tracking stock, enabling Continue selling when out of stock to ensure availability. 

Step 2: Enable Engraving in Theme Settings

Go to Theme Settings > Product Additional Options > under Engraving Option, select a product to apply the engraving charge.

Step 3: Add the Engraving block

Still in the theme editor, navigate to the Product page > under Product Information section, click Add block > choose Engraving.

Step 4: Set up the Engraving block

  • Option Label: The default text: “Personalize by adding your name (+$10)”): The title for this option shown to customers.
  • Mark as Required: If enabled, customers must fill in this field before checkout.
  • Maximum Character Length: Limits the number of characters allowed. Leave blank for no limit.
  • Option Note: Add an explanation or instructions (e.g., “Engraving is case-sensitive”).

Step 5: Click “Save” when done.

3. How Engraving works in the cart?

  • When a customer adds an engraved product to the cart:
    • The main product is added with an engraving property.
    • The engraving charge product is added automatically.
  • If no engraving product is selected in Theme Settings or the engraving product is out-of–stock, this option will not appear.


⚠️ Note: If you want to offer a free engraving service, you may not need this option. Instead, using the theme’s built-in customizable option feature can be a simpler solution.
