April Updates: New Personalization Features in Customily

April was all about giving merchants more control and flexibility when building personalized products. We introduced Word Search Puzzle, turning custom inputs into interactive designs that feel unique and engaging. Alongside it, Multi Image Control for Dynamic Images makes it easier than ever to manage multiple visuals from a single option. Plus, several improvements to Option Sets help you create cleaner setups and smoother customization experiences for your shoppers.

Let’s dive into what’s new! 🚀

Multi Previews (improvements)📖

You can now create multiple previews for a single product, giving shoppers different ways to visualize their personalization before buying. This opens up a lot of possibilities, from showing different contexts or backgrounds to offering alternative design compositions, all within the same product.

What’s new?

• Add multiple previews to a single template
• Each preview works independently
• Shoppers can switch between previews directly on the product page

New Design Element: Word Search Puzzle 🧩

Bring a playful twist to your products with our new Word Search Puzzle element!

Let your shoppers enter their own words and instantly generate a custom word search puzzle, perfect for gifts, kids’ products, or anything that could use a fun, personal touch. Each puzzle is dynamically created as an image based on your template setup.

Multi-Image Control for Dynamic Images (Clipart) 🖼️

You can now control multiple Dynamic Images with a single option, as long as they share the same library. This update simplifies your setup and unlocks a much smoother drag and drop experience directly on the live preview.

Previously, each Dynamic Image required its own option, even if they all used the same library. This often led to repetitive setups and more complex option sets, providing friction to the shopper. Now, you can group them under one option, making everything more intuitive for your shoppers.

What’s new?

• One single option can control multiple Dynamic Images
• Support for multiple selections from the same library
• Shoppers can add, remove, and swap positions directly on the live preview

Accordion Style for Sectioned Option Sets 🪗

We recently introduced Sections for Option Sets, and now you can further style how these groups appear on your storefront.

To help create a step by step personalization experience for your shoppers, we’ve added a new Accordion style available in your Store Settings.

Swatch Layout Options

We’ve added more flexibility to how your swatches are displayed, helping you make better use of space in the personalization flow.

What’s new?

• You can now choose between two layout styles for both color swatches and text swatches
• Wrap: the classic layout, where swatches flow into multiple rows
• Horizontal: a side-scrolling carousel that keeps everything in a single row

Why this matters: The new horizontal layout helps reduce vertical space, making the customization experience cleaner and easier to navigate, especially for products with many options.

Show Total Price in Add to Cart Button 💰

Make pricing clearer right when it matters most. You can now display the total product price directly on the Add to Cart button, updating in real time as shoppers incorporate add-ons. No more surprises at checkout, just full transparency before they click.

This is especially useful for products with multiple add-ons, where the final cost can change based on customer selections.
