Install Plugster on Shopify
We read your public pages and prepare them for AI assistants: a summary of your site (llms.txt), a clean version of every page, and tools they can call (MCP server). On your side, two things to do, and nothing else in your pages changes.
1. Two lines in the <head>
They tell assistants where to find the clean version of your site, and load the script that offers them its tools, along with the chat if you switch it on. Your dashboard gives you the exact lines, with your site’s address in place of <your-site>.
<link rel="describedby" href="https://plugster.ai/<your-site>/llms.txt?via=link">
<script src="https://plugster.ai/<your-site>/plugster.js" async></script>- Go to Online Store → Themes, then Edit code on your live theme.
- Open layout/theme.liquid and paste the two lines just before </head>.
- Save.
2. A redirect of /llms.txt (recommended)
Assistants look for /llms.txt at the root of a domain. A redirect sends them to the one we keep up to date for you; replace <your-site> with the address your dashboard gives. If your site already serves its own /llms.txt, keep it: there is no redirect to set, the two lines in the <head> are enough.
- Since May 2026, Shopify serves /llms.txt itself on every shop, and sends it on to its own /agents.md page.
- A URL redirect created in the admin still shows there, but Shopify no longer applies it: there is nothing to do here.
- The two lines in the <head> are enough: the link they add leads assistants to the version of your site we keep up to date.
Good to know about Shopify
- The two lines live in the theme’s code: a theme update or a change of theme does not carry them over, so paste them again in the new theme.liquid.
- Every Shopify plan lets you edit the theme’s code.
Check it is in place
In your dashboard, the Check installation button reads your site’s home page and says, line by line, what it found.
Then
Your dashboard checks the install, we read your site, and you see what AI assistants read and search for on it.
