Changelog

Customer rules have a new property, Subscription status. Pick a status, Active, Paused, Cancelled, Expired, Failed or Never subscribed, and choose whether the customer's status equals it or does not. Equals Active shows a tile only to current subscribers, does not equal Active shows it to everyone else, and Equals Cancelled is a natural place for a win-back offer.

The status comes straight from Shopify and covers every subscription app that runs on Shopify's own subscriptions, so there is nothing to tag or keep current. Assistants connected through the StoCu MCP server can create the same rule. More in Display rules.

The Assistants page has a new section, Keys. A key lets an assistant connect to StoCu without signing in, which is what a job that runs on its own needs, and it keeps working until you revoke it. Any number of jobs and windows can share one key, so a morning script and your own Claude Code no longer sign each other out.

Name each key, choose whether it can change tiles or only see them, and copy it once. Each person can have five, the store owner sees and can revoke all of them, and the table shows when each was last used. Signing in stays the way to connect Claude.ai and ChatGPT. More in Connect an assistant.

Brands with several stores can now group them in StoCu. One store creates the brand on the new Brand page and gets an invite code; the other stores join with it. From then on any store can share a tile with the brand, from Tile Studio's menu or a My Tiles row, with a note for the others.

The Brand page lists everything shared across the brand. Open a tile and it becomes a draft in your store: products and collections matched by handle, pictures copied into your Files on save, links moved to your domain, the tile's variations carried over, and its rules attached to your rules of the same name or copied to your Rules page. Nothing is placed until you save and place it, and no store can change another store's tiles. Assistants connected through the StoCu MCP server can list the library and save a copy too. More in Brand library.

Customer rules have a new property, B2B customer. Pick it and the condition becomes one question, "Is this a B2B customer?", with a Yes or No answer. Yes shows the tile only to customers who are signed in and buying for a company through Shopify B2B. No shows it to everyone else, which is handy for a consumer offer your wholesale buyers should not see.

The answer comes straight from Shopify, so there is no metafield to create and no tag to keep current, and it works on every page a tile can sit on, including checkout and thank you on Plus stores. Assistants connected through the StoCu MCP server can create the same rule by asking for the B2B customer property with the answer yes or no. More in Display rules.

Your custom account page has a width setting. In the Target Editor's Page surface, choose Wide to use the full width of the account page or Narrow to center it in a 640 pixel column, the width of the tiles on your other account pages. The preview shows the page at the width you picked, and the live page follows as soon as you hit Save. Pages stay wide unless you change them. More in Build a custom account page.

Reordering rows in Tile Studio's Layout tree used to take a steady hand. Now a line shows where the row will land as you drag, and the level is yours to steer: slide the pointer a little to the right to put the row inside the row above it, or to the left to lift it out of its group. The row you are carrying indents with the line, so you see the result before you let go.

If you would rather not drag, every row's ⋯ menu now has Move up, Move down, Move out of the group and Move into the row above. Only moves the layout can hold are offered. More in Building layouts.

The previews in Tile Studio and the Target Editor now use your store's active branding from Shopify's checkout and accounts editor: the canvas color behind your account pages, your fonts, and the color and shape of your buttons. What you see while you build is what your customers see on the live page, and the Target Editor's page preview is drawn at the real width of the live page. A line under the preview tells you the branding it is using; it refreshes on its own the first time you open an editor after you change your branding in Shopify.

A customer who comes back to a form no longer starts from an empty page. By default their earlier answers are filled in, they change what is different, and the button reads Update. If they empty an answer and send the form, that answer is removed from their record in Shopify.

A new setting, Form completion behavior in the form's What happens next step, lets you choose something else for customers who already answered: show a message in place of the questions, hide the whole tile, or start empty every time. Every send now also leaves a "Sent" mark on the customer that you can use in segments. More in Forms.

You can now put a form on your customer account pages. Choose Ask a question in a new tile, pick a starting point such as Get to know you or Request or application, and change the questions to suit your store. There are ten ways to answer, from a short answer to pick several, a date or a yes / no switch.

Every answer is saved to the customer in Shopify as a real field, so you can see it on the customer's page, build segments from it, and use it in your display rules and in the words of your tiles. Each time a form is sent you also get an entry in a list of responses, and Shopify Flow hears about it through the new trigger StoCu form submitted, so you can email your team or tag the customer by what they said. The full guide is in Forms.

A brand-new tile now opens in Guided. It asks what you want the tile to do: a marketing banner, sell products, an announcement, or ask a question. From there it takes you through the shape, the content, the words and pictures, and where the tile should go, with a live preview beside every step.

The first piece you add to a column brings its heading and later pieces fit under it, so a tile reads as one thought. Pictures can match the height of the words next to them. Details about the customer, such as their first name, go in with one click, and each one gets a fallback for customers you know less about.

Nothing is taken away. Advanced is one click away at the top, your work comes with you, and tiles you built before open in Advanced as they always have. The full guide is in Guided setup.

One tile can now show different versions to different customers. Add a variation, change the words, images or links that should differ, and choose who sees it with a display rule. Everyone else keeps seeing the original. You place the tile once, so there is nothing extra to manage on the page. The full guide is in Tile variations.

When you place a tile somewhere the StoCu block has not been added yet, the Target Editor now says so in a yellow message, with the steps to fix it. A second, blue message appears when the same block is on a page more than once, and you can close it once you have set things up the way you want.

Customers who opened their order status page from an order email, without signing in, were not seeing your tiles on that page. That is fixed. If you have a tile on the order status page, more of your customers see it now.

Hi, I'm Jaren. I built StoCu, and I want to hear from you. There is a new Help page in the app menu with links to the guides and a short form for a question, a problem, an idea or a billing matter. Your message comes straight to me, and I reply within a day, usually sooner. Shopify's own Get support link in the app opens the same page. More in Getting help.

A round of everyday improvements to building tiles. Choosing an image now opens Shopify's own image picker, so you can search your files, upload a new one or drag one in without leaving Tile Studio. Undo and redo buttons sit next to Save. Centered text now stays centered when it runs onto a second line. And you can drag a whole section, with everything inside it, to a new spot in the list.

Display rules can now match the language or the country a customer is shopping in, so one account page can greet French and English shoppers in their own words. Choosing French covers French Canada and France too. The first time you use a language rule, Shopify asks you to approve one small permission so StoCu can read your store's languages. See Language and country rules.

If you already use Claude or ChatGPT, you can now connect it to StoCu. Describe the tile you want, or hand over a brief, a design and your own images. Your assistant sends back a preview in your store's own look, and nothing is saved until you say it is right. It can then place the tile for you. You approve each assistant once from the new Assistants page in the app, and you can disconnect it there at any time. Start with Connect your own AI assistant.

Home now shows your most recent tiles and whether each one is live, plus every customer page with how many tiles it holds and whether the StoCu block is turned on there. Views, clicks and scheduled tiles have moved to their own Analytics page in the menu. The app also opens noticeably faster.
