Keyword Configuration
Keyword configuration is the most common source of support questions. If the pickup point widget is not appearing for your customers, the keyword setting is almost always the cause. This guide explains exactly how keyword matching works and how to configure it correctly.
How Keyword Matching Works
Section titled “How Keyword Matching Works”When a customer reaches checkout and selects a shipping method, the app checks whether the name of that shipping method contains your configured keyword.
The matching logic is:
shippingTitle.toLowerCase().includes(keyword)In plain English:
- The shipping method name is converted to lowercase.
- The app checks whether your keyword appears anywhere in that name.
- The match is case-insensitive —
zasilkovna,Zasilkovna, andZASILKOVNAall work.
If a match is found, the widget for that carrier is shown. If no keyword matches, the widget defaults to Zásilkovna.
Rules for Keywords
Section titled “Rules for Keywords”- Substring matching — the keyword must appear somewhere in the shipping method name. Multi-word keywords work as long as the shipping title contains that exact substring (e.g.,
pickup pointwill match “Zásilkovna pickup point”). - Comma-separated for multiple — the app may support comma-separated keywords for matching multiple terms (e.g.,
zasilkovna,packeta). Check the Interface Settings page for the exact input format supported by your version. - One keyword field per carrier — each carrier has its own keyword field. On the Premium plan, you can configure a separate keyword for each carrier.
- Keywords must match the shipping method name — the keyword you enter must appear in the exact shipping method name you have configured in Shopify.
Step-by-Step Configuration
Section titled “Step-by-Step Configuration”1. Find your shipping method name
Section titled “1. Find your shipping method name”Go to Shopify Admin → Settings → Shipping and delivery. Look at the names of your shipping rates. Make a note of the exact name of the shipping method you use for Zásilkovna or Packeta pickup points.
For example:
- “Zásilkovna - pickup”
- “Packeta - výdejní místo”
- “Zásilkovna Z-BOX”
2. Choose a keyword
Section titled “2. Choose a keyword”Pick a word that appears in that shipping method name. It should be unique enough that it won’t accidentally match other shipping methods.
| Shipping Method Name | Good Keyword | Why |
|---|---|---|
| ”Zásilkovna pickup” | zasilkovna | Unique to Zásilkovna methods |
| ”Packeta - výdejní místo” | packeta | Unique to Packeta methods |
| ”GLS ParcelShop” | gls | Unique to GLS methods |
| ”DPD Pickup” | dpd | Unique to DPD methods |
3. Enter the keyword in the app
Section titled “3. Enter the keyword in the app”- Open the app in your Shopify admin.
- Go to Interface Settings.
- Find the Keyword field for the relevant carrier.
- Enter your keyword (lowercase recommended, though it doesn’t matter technically).
- Save the settings.
4. Test the match
Section titled “4. Test the match”Place a test order and select the shipping method. The pickup point widget should appear on the Thank You page.
Multiple Keywords for One Carrier
Section titled “Multiple Keywords for One Carrier”If you have multiple shipping methods for the same carrier (for example, “Zásilkovna - standard” and “Zásilkovna - Z-BOX”), you can match both with a single keyword by using the common word: zasilkovna.
If the shipping methods use different words, you can enter multiple keywords separated by commas:
zasilkovna,packetaCommon Mistakes
Section titled “Common Mistakes”Mistake 1: Keyword doesn’t match the shipping method name
Section titled “Mistake 1: Keyword doesn’t match the shipping method name”The most common error. The keyword you entered does not appear in the exact name of your Shopify shipping method.
Fix: Go to Shopify → Settings → Shipping and delivery, copy the exact name of your shipping method, and make sure your keyword is a substring of that name.
Mistake 2: Extra spaces in the keyword field
Section titled “Mistake 2: Extra spaces in the keyword field”Accidentally entering zasilkovna (with a trailing space) instead of zasilkovna will cause the match to fail.
Fix: Remove any leading or trailing spaces from the keyword field.
Mistake 3: Keyword phrase doesn’t match the shipping title
Section titled “Mistake 3: Keyword phrase doesn’t match the shipping title”If you enter a keyword phrase (e.g., “Zásilkovna pickup”), it will only match if the shipping method name contains that exact substring in sequence. For example, “Zásilkovna pickup point” would match, but “Zásilkovna - pickup” would not.
Fix: Use the shortest distinctive term that uniquely identifies the carrier, like zasilkovna or packeta.
Mistake 4: Wrong carrier keyword field
Section titled “Mistake 4: Wrong carrier keyword field”On the Premium plan, each carrier has its own keyword field in the Interface Settings. Make sure you’re entering the keyword in the correct carrier’s field.
Mistake 5: Shipping method name changed after configuration
Section titled “Mistake 5: Shipping method name changed after configuration”If you rename a shipping method in Shopify after setting up the keyword, the keyword may no longer match.
Fix: After renaming shipping methods, always verify that your keywords still match the new names.
