This guide walks you through the various options available when customizing Shopify widgets.

If your plan allows, you can connect to multiple Shopify store accounts. To do this, open the Connection menu and click + Add connection.

The metric picker allows you to select any of the Shopify metrics Geckoboard supports.

Line charts, Column charts and Tables allow plotting a second metric on the same widget. To do this, click Add second metric.

For example, you could try use add a second metric to show Total orders data alongside Unfulfilled orders.

The visualization picker allows you to choose between plotting your data as:

The options available depends on how you've configured your widget. See our guide to choosing the right visualization for your data.

If you want to group by a certain dimension you need to select a visualization that supports grouping:

For example, you could try the Leaderboard visualization configured to show Net Sales by Product name.

Or, you could try the Bar chart visualization configured to show Number of fulfilled orders by Order presentment currency.

If you're creating a Line or Column chart and haven't chosen additional metrics to compare, you can Split by a chosen dimension. It's also possible to split your data by custom fields created in Shopify.

For example, you could try splitting Number of orders by Order fulfilment status.

The time picker allows you to select timeframe for your data. You can also create a Custom period from the bottom of the select menu.

If you're creating a Number or Line chart, you can compare to a previous period.

For example, you could try comparing Today to the Same day last week.

The Gauge visualization supports setting minimum and maximum values. If left blank, these values are automatically calculated.

Filters allow you to dial in to the exact value you care about. Filter options available include:

For example, you could use filters to show the Total sales using a promotional Discount code.

On the Number, Line, Column and Bar charts visualizations it's possible to show your progress towards a chosen target by setting a goal.

Setting a Starting from value on Number visualizations enables you to set more meaningful goals. For example, you could track your goal to increase Total sales for this month from 3.8m to 4.2m.

The Formatting menu allows you to overrule the automatically set number of decimal places used, or add additional information about the values on your widget. For more information, see our guide to using the data formatting options.
