How it works
Chamevo runs as a WordPress plugin that connects to the Chamevo cloud platform through a license key.
- You build products in the Chamevo admin β define views (front, back, sides), add elements (text fields, image placeholders, graphics), and set permissions for what customers can change.
- You connect products to WooCommerce product pages (or embed them on any page with shortcodes). Customers see the product customizer when they visit the page.
- Customers customize and order. Their design data is stored with the WooCommerce order.
- You export print-ready files from the order viewer β PDF, PNG, or SVG β and send them to your printer, a fulfillment partner, or cloud storage.
