How to Add Smart Progress Bar to Any Page via Designer

Learn how to place the Smart Progress Bar on any page of your store—including Cart and Slide Cart—using flexible placement and layout controls.

Updated yesterday

Overview

Once a Smart Progress Bar is created (either using Built-in Campaigns or from scratch), it must be added to your storefront using the LimeSpot Designer.

The Designer allows you to:

  • Select the exact page where the Progress Bar should appear

  • Live-preview it on your site

  • Customize the look and feel

  • Publish it when ready

Smart Progress Bars can be added to any page on your store, including:

  • Home page

  • Product pages

  • Collection pages

  • Cart page

  • Sliding / drawer cart

  • Custom landing pages

Step 1: Open the Designer

To access the Designer:

  1. Go to LimeSpot App

  2. Navigate to:
    Personalization → Product Recommendations → Designer

  3. The Designer will open with a live preview of your storefront.

Step 2: Select the Target Page

At the top-left of the Designer, use the Page Selector dropdown to choose the page where you want to display the Smart Progress Bar.

Examples:

  • Home

  • Product page

  • Collection page

  • Cart

  • Custom pages

Step 3: Enable the Smart Progress Bar in the Designer

  1. In the left sidebar, click the “Smart Progress Bar” button.

  2. The Smart Progress Bar will immediately appear in the live preview.

  3. You can now visually confirm its position on the selected page.

Step 4: Edit Look & Feel (Optional)

Inside the Designer, you can customize the appearance using:

Typography

  • Offer message font, size, and weight

  • Tier label font and alignment

Colors

  • Progress line

  • Tier indicators

  • Gradients

  • Borders

These styling tools work the same way as for other LimeSpot components and allow full brand matching without code.

Step 5: General Settings

Open the General section to control how the Progress Bar behaves and when it appears:

  • Icon Size
    Use the slider to adjust the size of tier icons (Small → Medium → Large) so they match the visual density of your page.

  • Hide Tier Label
    Enable this if you prefer a cleaner, minimal bar without text labels under each tier.

  • Hide When Cart Is Empty
    Turn this on to show the Progress Bar only when there’s at least one item in the cart—ideal for Cart and Slide Cart placements where you don’t want an empty bar visible.

Step 6: Placement Controls

Under the Placement section, you can:

  • Choose how the Progress Bar is inserted (before/after key page elements)

  • Select the reference element it attaches to

  • Control layout behavior (inline, fixed, sticky when supported)

This ensures the Progress Bar appears in the optimal high-converting location on each page.

Step 7: Live Preview & Publish

  1. Use the live preview to test:

    • Desktop

    • Tablet

    • Mobile

  2. Once everything looks right, click Save.

  3. Click Publish to push the Smart Progress Bar live on your store.

Important Notes

  • Creating a Smart Progress Bar does not automatically display it on your store. It must be added through the Designer.

  • You can add the same Progress Bar to multiple pages, or assign different Progress Bars to different pages.

  • You can safely preview and edit without affecting your live store until you click Publish.

Best Practices

  • Place Progress Bars above Cart totals or near Checkout CTAs for the highest impact.

  • Match colors to your theme for a seamless experience.

  • Always test on mobile before publishing.
