DesignNBuy Launches Major DesignO Shopify App Update with Enhanced Collaboration, Branding Controls, and Performance Fixes

New York, NY, February 04, 2026 --(PR.com)-- DesignNBuy, a global leader in web-to-print and packaging technology, has announced a significant update to the DesignO Shopify App, delivering powerful new features and critical performance improvements tailored specifically for Shopify-based print businesses.

The latest update strengthens DesignO’s position as a flexible, merchant-friendly design tool for Shopify stores, introducing advanced collaboration capabilities, white-label branding controls, pricing precision options, and key bug fixes that improve stability, usability, and product accuracy.

“Shopify merchants operate in a fast-moving environment where speed, collaboration, and reliability are non-negotiable,” said Nidhi Agrawal, Co-founder and CEO of DesignNBuy. “This update focuses on removing friction, both for store owners and end customers, while giving merchants more control over branding, pricing, and data visibility.”

Shareable Design Links for Faster Collaboration

The DesignO Shopify App now supports Shareable Design Links, allowing customers and internal teams to collaborate on designs without downloads or exports.

With a single click, users can generate secure links directly from the design editor and share them for feedback or edits. The feature supports two access levels to suit different collaboration needs:

Can View – Recipients can preview the design, without making any edits.

Can Edit – Recipients get full editing access, enabling real-time collaboration and faster iterations.

This feature is especially valuable for B2B customers who require approval from multiple stakeholders before placing an order.

White Label Configuration for Shopify Merchants

DesignO 2.5 introduces advanced white label configuration capabilities, enabling businesses to fully rebrand the DesignO admin interface to reflect their own brand identity. With this update, eCommerce agencies can present the software as a seamless extension of their own product offering.

Merchants can now:

Apply custom theme colors across the interface

Configure text and sidebar colors matching your brand guidelines

Upload company logos and favicons

Instantly preview branding changes or reset to defaults

This allows agencies and multi-brand Shopify sellers to deliver a consistent, branded experience without any custom development.

Copy Editor Code Snippets for Flexible Embedding

The Copy Editor Code feature allows merchants to generate ready-to-use HTML/JavaScript snippets for any product directly from the admin panel.

With this update, the DesignO editor can be embedded:

On custom Shopify pages

Inside blogs or landing pages

Anywhere within the storefront

This removes the need for customers to navigate through multiple product pages and enables instant design engagement.

Product Detail Page (PDP) Optimization

The latest DesignO Shopify app update delivers faster Product Detail Pages by significantly reducing unnecessary API calls. Instead of invoking DesignO on every product load. The system now checks the customized attribute configured within Shopify to determine whether a product supports personalization.

DesignO is triggered only for personalized products—non-customizable items to bypass the API call entirely.

This smarter validation reduces server load, improves page speed, and creates a smoother shopping experience for shoppers, helping Shopify merchants' lower drop-offs and drive better conversions.

Expanded 3D Product Visualization Library for Shopify Stores

The latest DesignO Shopify app update expands the 3D product visualization library with 17 new photorealistic 3D models, allowing Shopify customers to preview exactly how their customized products will look before placing an order.

The new additions include:

Eight New Packaging Models:

Elegant End Tuck Box, Half Slotted Container, Premium Liquor Packaging Box, Roll End Front Tuck Box, Prestige Handle Box, Showcase Hanging Box, Takeaway Gable Carton, and Standard Pizza Box.

Nine New Pouch and Large-Format Models:

Chocolate Bar, Flat Base Pouch, Spout Pouch, Canopy 3D, Feather Flag, Angle Booth (3 Side), Two Side Booth Wall (Rectangle and Square), and 3 Side Wall Booth.

These new 3D models help Shopify-based print businesses in food and beverage, retail, promotional products, and event marketing offer customers realistic product previews during the ordering process—supporting more confident purchase decisions, improving conversion rates, and reducing returns.

User Profile Data Sharing Controls

The Shopify App now includes User Profile Data Sharing rules, allowing administrators to define whether users can access:

Owned Data only, or

All Data within the store

This enhancement improves privacy, access control, and data security—particularly important for B2B workflows and multi-user accounts.

Decimal Precision Configuration for Pricing

Merchants can now configure decimal precision for pricing, choosing how many decimal places appear across the storefront (0, 2, 3, up to 6 decimals).

This ensures accurate price display for different currencies, tax rules, and regional requirements.

Simplified Message Module

The messaging system inside DesignO has been redesigned to function more like a modern chat experience, improving communication between merchants and customers.

Enhancements include:

Clear message visibility labels (Internal vs Client)

Organized conversation threads with attachments

Bulk message management

A 5-minute edit window for correcting messages

What’s Fixed in DesignO Shopify App

This update also resolves several critical Shopify-specific issues:

Large Variant Products Fixed
Products with a high number of variants were previously causing the Design Tool to load incorrectly, with size and pricing mismatches. This issue has now been completely resolved.

Size & Color Swatches Implemented
Size and color swatches are now correctly displayed on the Product Detail Page (PDP) in the Shopify demo store.

3D Preview Stability Improved
A 3D preview error that occurred when switching products inside the design tool has been fixed.

New Demo Product Added
A new multicolor t-shirt product has been added to the Shopify demo store for our users who want to test our tool, before confirming their buying decision.
