Customer Photo Upload in NINEMAGS
Photo upload is the step where customers add their images to create a custom photo magnet after NINEMAGS is installed.
Once NINEMAGS is installed, a special upload block appears directly on the product page.
This is not a separate button, but a full interactive block embedded into the product page.
How Photo Upload Works
- The customer opens a product page in your store.
- The NINEMAGS block linked to this product is displayed on the page.
- Inside this block, the customer clicks Upload pictures.
- The image upload window opens.
- The customer uploads photos from any device.
-
After all images are uploaded, the customer confirms the selection.
NINEMAGS generates a Product Preview, where:
- all uploaded images are displayed,
- the crop area and working area of the product are shown.
- After confirming the Preview, the customer clicks Add to cart.

Product Preview Stage
Before the product is added to the cart, the customer always sees a Product Preview.
In the Product Preview:
- all uploaded images are shown,
- the customer can see how images fit into the magnet format,
- cropping and positioning are visible.
Only after confirming the Preview can the product be added to the cart.

Cart and Order Placement
After clicking Add to cart.

-
The product is added to the cart.
In the cart, the customer can see:
- a preview of the product,
- all uploaded images.
- The customer can still make changes to the selected images.
- The final step is checkout and order placement.

⚠️ Photo upload and Preview confirmation always happen before the product is added to the cart and are a required part of the ordering process.
Important Things to Know
- The customer interacts only with the NINEMAGS block, not with a standalone button.
- The customer always sees a Preview before adding the product to the cart.
- All uploaded images are saved and attached to the order.
- The customer does not see the print-ready preview — it is available only to the store owner.
