👉 If you haven’t created a widget yet, follow our setup guide first.

Step 2: Embed the locator into Shopware

Since Shopware templates are Twig-based, you’ll insert the MapCosmos snippet into a CMS page or theme template.

Option A: Add to a Shopping Experience (CMS Page)

1. Go to Content → Shopping Experiences in your Shopware admin.

2. Create a new Layout (or edit an existing one).

3. Add a Custom HTML element to the section where you want the locator.

4. Paste the MapCosmos snippet into the HTML field and delta the sample text.

5. Click Save → Assign layout to page → View in storefront to see the real output.

Option B: Add to a Theme Template

If you prefer a dedicated page for the locator:

1. Create a new CMS page called Store Locator
   
2. Assign your Shopping Experience layout to it
   
3. In your theme files, create/edit a template like:
   custom/plugins/YourTheme/src/Resources/views/store-locator.html.twig
   

Inside it, paste:

{% sw_extends '@Storefront/storefront/base.html.twig' %}
{% block base_content %}  
<h1>Find a Store</h1>  
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://widget.mapcosmos.com/map-widget.js?key=WIDGET_KEY" async></script>
<div id="map-cosmos-map-widget"></div>  
{% endblock %}

Clear the cache and recompile theme:

bin/console cache:clear

bin/console theme:compile

Step 3: Publish and test

• Assign the new page to your navigation (e.g., “Find Us” or “Store Locator”).
  
• Refresh the storefront.
  
• Verify that the widget renders and loads correctly.
