How to share wishlists/projects
Customers can share their wishlists and project lists with others using a generated link - great for design clients, contractors, and purchasing teams.
Customers can share their wishlists with others by generating a shareable link. This is useful for sharing product lists with clients, team members, or family.
Sharing a Wishlist
-
Open the wishlist you want to share
-
Click the Share button in the top right corner
-
Confirm that you want to make the wishlist public and shareable
-
Copy the generated link to share
Merchant Settings
Merchants can optionally hide pricing on shared wishlists, so a shared list reads as a pick list without prices.
- In your Shopify admin, open the B2B Wishlist Project Planner app
- Click Wishlist Settings in the app navigation
- Under Shared Wishlist Settings, tick Hide pricing on shared wishlists
- Click Save
The setting applies to every shared wishlist from then on; links already shared pick it up the next time they are opened.
Turning sharing off
Sharing can be turned off for the whole store, on any plan. It is useful when lists hold wholesale prices or restricted products.
- In your Shopify admin, open the B2B Wishlist Project Planner app
- Click Wishlist Settings in the app navigation
- Under Shared Wishlist Settings, tick Turn off sharing
- Click Save
Customers no longer see a Share button, and can't share by link or email. Links already shared stop working straight away. If you turn sharing back on, those links work again.
Share emails
When a customer shares by email, the app sends the message for them. You can send it from your own verified domain, reuse your PDF Export logo and colors, edit the subject, intro and button text, and customers can add a personal note. See Share emails.
Troubleshooting a shared link
"Not Found. This shared link is invalid or no longer available"
The shared page opened, but the wishlist behind it could not be loaded. There are three causes:
- The wishlist was never made public. Open it, click Share, confirm the wishlist is public, and copy the link from that dialog. A link typed or edited by hand will not work.
- The wishlist was deleted, or its owner turned sharing off again. Sharing can be turned back on from the same Share dialog, which produces a new link.
- A problem on our side. If the link was copied straight from the Share dialog, the wishlist still exists, and the page still says the link is invalid, the problem is in the app, not in your store or your settings. Send us the link through the contact form and we will look at it the same day. You do not need to regenerate the link or reinstall anything.
Shared links work on both the .myshopify.com address and your custom domain, logged in or logged out, and in a private window. If a link fails in all of those, it is case 1, 2 or 3 above.
The share dialog shows no link, or the Share button is missing
The Share button lives on the wishlist page itself (the customer's account page for the classic widget, the Projects page for V2). If the page shows wishlists but no Share button, the app embed is off or the theme block was removed. See Installation.
A shared link shows prices you expected to be hidden
Prices on shared wishlists are controlled per store by the merchant, on the app's Wishlist Settings page (see "Merchant Settings" above). A link generated before the setting changed keeps working and follows the current setting.

Quote-only products
Let customers save products to a wishlist that they must contact you to buy: no price, no add to cart, skipped by Add all to cart. Pick the products in the app, or sync the list from a product metafield your ERP or feed maintains.
Share emails: your domain, your branding, your words
Share emails are sent by the app on your customer's behalf. Send them from your own verified domain, reuse your PDF logo and colors, edit the subject, intro and button, and let customers add a personal note.
