Podifai includes pre-built templates for common product customization scenarios. Templates give you a working customizer in seconds that you can then adjust to match your specific products.
How to Use a Template
- In the Podifai dashboard, click Add Options on a product.
- Select Use Template instead of building from scratch.
- Browse available templates by category (Jewelry, Home & Deco, Gift, Apparel).
- Click a template to preview its options.
- Apply the template to your product.
- Customize labels, values, pricing, and images to match your product.
Available Template Categories
| Category | Example Templates |
|---|
| Jewelry | Ring engraving, Charm bracelet, Necklace pendant |
| Home & Deco | Custom canvas, Personalized pillow, Wall art |
| Gift | Gift box with message, Monogrammed item |
| Apparel | Custom text on shirt, Patch selection |
See the Template Library for the full list.
Customizing a Template
After applying a template, you can:
- Rename options to match your product terminology
- Add or remove values (e.g., add more color options)
- Adjust pricing for each option value
- Upload your own images for swatches and live preview
- Modify conditional logic rules
- Change display mode between Standard and Accordion
Templates are a starting point, not a constraint. Every setting is fully editable after applying.
Templates vs Building from Scratch
| Templates | From Scratch |
|---|
| Setup time | Minutes | 15–30 minutes |
| Pre-configured options | ✓ | ✗ |
| Conditional logic included | Some templates | You build it |
| Full customization | After applying | From the start |
Best Practices
Start with a template even if your product is unique. It’s faster to modify an existing setup than to build every option from scratch.
After applying a template, review every option label and value. Template defaults are generic — rename them to match your brand and product terminology.
