Add-ons catalog

The 22 first-party DZBuild add-ons plus the Flash Manager integration and the built-in toggles — what they do, which plan they need, and when to use them.

Written by Support

Add-ons extend DZBuild with features that are not part of the core platform. Most of them are opt-in, off by default, and non-destructive — uninstalling never touches your products, orders, or customers. Two exceptions are worth knowing up front:

  • Facebook Catalog is on for every store and cannot be deactivated.

  • Digital Product Variants currently renders on any Digital-theme product page that has variants, whether or not you activated it. That is a known defect, not intended behaviour.

How to activate an add-on

  1. Open Dashboard → Add-ons at /dashboard/addons.

  2. Find the card for the add-on you want.

  3. Check the required plan badge (Free / Pro / Unlimited / Enterprise).

  4. Click Activate. The card flips in place — there is no page reload. Four add-ons take you straight to their management page instead: A/B Testing, Pickup from Store, Short Links & QR Codes and Webhooks.

  5. Some add-ons unlock a dedicated dashboard page — for those, a new entry appears in the sidebar (e.g. Stock management, Reviews, Advanced orders).

To turn an add-on off later, click Deactivate on the same card. The feature stops; the data the add-on collected stays in place in case you re-enable it.

The add-on catalog

There are 22 add-ons. The installable grid on /dashboard/addons shows 19 of them; A/B Testing, Product Reviews and Facebook Catalog are pulled out of the grid and rendered as Management Tools cards instead (see below).

Only these add-ons put an entry in the dashboard sidebar when active: A/B Testing, Advanced Order Management, Advanced Analytics, Product Reviews, Advanced Stock Management, Minimum & Maximum Quantity, Short Links, Webhooks and Pickup from Store. Cross-Sell, Custom Delivery Label, Custom Product Shipping, Shopify Import and Facebook Catalog have a management page too, but no sidebar entry — open them from the Settings (or Configure) button on their card.

External platforms

The same /dashboard/addons page carries an External platforms section, below the add-ons, for services that run outside DZBuild and connect to your store. These are not add-ons — you connect an account instead of activating a card.

What it does

External platforms

Free

Sends every new order to your Flash Manager confirmation team automatically, and brings their confirmation and delivery statuses back into DZBuild. Managed at /dashboard/addons/flash-manager

Built-in toggles {#always-on-built-ins}

Two features are built into the platform rather than shipped as installable add-ons. They are off until you toggle them on, from their cards in the Management Tools section at the top of /dashboard/addons — they never appear in the installable grid:

  • Promo codes — discount codes, managed at /dashboard/promo-codes.

  • Countdown urgency — a countdown and a live-visitor counter on product pages.

Countdown urgency is configured once for the whole store, from the Settings button on its card: show countdown, show live visitors, cycle duration in hours (1-24, default 8), minimum and maximum simulated visitor count (defaults 15 and 50), visitor text and countdown title. The settings then apply to product pages store-wide.

Landing pages have their own, unrelated countdown and fake_visitors section types in the landing-page editor — those belong to the landing-page builder, not to this built-in.

Management Tools section

Management Tools is the first section of the /dashboard/addons page — not a sidebar group. It holds eight cards: Team, Google Sheets, Product Add-ons, Promo codes, Countdown urgency, A/B Testing, Product Reviews and Facebook Catalog.

Of the three add-ons that live here instead of in the installable grid:

  • A/B Testing adds a sidebar entry when active → run your tests at /dashboard/ab-tests

  • Product Reviews also adds a sidebar entry when active → moderate at /dashboard/reviews

  • Facebook Catalog has no sidebar entry — open it from the Configure button on its card → /dashboard/addons/facebook-catalog

Plan requirements

Each add-on declares a minimum plan. The badge on the add-on card matches the minimum: Free, Pro, Unlimited or Enterprise — Advanced Analytics is the only Enterprise-only add-on. If you are below the required plan, the Activate button is replaced by an Upgrade prompt that links to /dashboard/subscribe.

The plan is checked only at activation time. If you downgrade, add-ons you already activated keep running — but once you turn one off, you cannot re-activate it until you restore the plan.

Add-ons paused by your theme

An add-on can declare themes it is incompatible with. On such a theme the card is shown as paused: the Activate button is disabled, the add-on does not run, and nothing is uninstalled — its settings and data are preserved and it resumes if you switch back to a compatible theme.

Seven add-ons are unavailable on the Digital theme:

  • Advanced Order Management

  • Cross-Sell — Frequently Bought Together

  • Custom Delivery Label

  • Custom Product Shipping

  • Pickup from Store

  • Advanced Stock Management

  • Stop Desk Selector

⚠️ Warning — Text typed into add-on settings is stored HTML-escaped

In the generic Settings modal on an add-on card, the characters <, >, &, " and ' are escaped before being saved, so they can render literally later. Avoid them in those fields. Add-ons with their own dedicated page (for example Custom Delivery Label) strip HTML instead.

Removing add-on data

Deactivation is reversible. If you also want the data an add-on collected erased for good, contact support — there is no self-serve hard-uninstall yet, since most merchants reactivate within a week.
