From the AI settings to the finished shopping experience: set up the provider, define topic and length, link products, sharpen the draft and create the page including translations.
Shopware 6.7 with Storefront and shopping experiences enabled, PHP 8.2 or newer. For background image generation the Shopware message consumer has to be running.
Upload the ZIP in the admin under Extensions, install and activate it. Then enter the licence key from plugins.staw.io; the check needs a shop domain configured in the sales channel.
Under AI settings you choose provider and model and store the API key. "Test connection" verifies both before the first page is created.
Images have their own provider: OpenAI or Google. Optionally the AI fills in missing alt texts in the media manager.
Here you set the internal name, the type of page (standalone landing page or category page), the sales channels and the languages.
On top of that come topic and keywords - the content brief for the AI. For length you choose between compact, standard and detailed, plus tone and layout. Free build instructions are optional.
Products can be picked individually through the search. Alternatively you attach a dynamic product group - the slider then shows its products automatically, without you maintaining the selection.
A category can be linked as well; the call to action button then points there. For category layouts the category selection is mandatory.
The AI produces the draft. Every section can be edited, dragged to a new position or deleted; "Add section" brings in text sections, benefits, product tiles or a call to action.
With "Further adjustment by AI" you send a change instruction to the existing draft instead of regenerating it. Page title, meta description and URL live here as well.
Creating produces the shopping experience, the translations and the SEO URLs. If AI images were selected, they continue in the background and are inserted once ready - keep the window open for that.
Afterwards you can open the page directly in the CMS editor. From here on it is an ordinary shopping experience.
Intermediate states can be saved and loaded back into the editor later. Applying a draft to an existing page rebuilds the content but keeps the URL unchanged, so existing links stay intact.
With "Automatic" the plugin uses the category image and product images from your shop, embedded responsively with srcset. With "AI generated" new visuals are produced by the selected image provider.
Posts appear on a blog page of their own. It comes with:
A link to the blog can be shown in the footer. Posts are listed in the sitemap and are indexed like any other page.
On the product page a block with matching content appears. The selection runs in two stages: first posts and pages that use this very product. If that is not enough, content linked to one of the product's categories is added.
Posts appear as guide, landing pages as theme page.
Every page and post can be given a from and until date. A task checks every 15 minutes and puts content live or takes it down.
For this to work the scheduled task must be active in Shopware - under Settings, System, Tasks, entry staw_kilp_direct.schedule.
Every language selected in step 1 is translated during creation, including page title and meta description. Translations can be adjusted later in the CMS editor as usual.
The testimonial section has two fields that belong together:
Only testimonials with an author and a rating from one to five are output. If either is missing, the testimonial stays in the text but does not appear in the structured data.
A word of care: only mark up testimonials that genuinely exist. Text the AI produced as an example must not be marked up as a review - that breaches Google's guidelines and can get the page dropped from the results.
Questions come straight to us - support is from the developer. You can also request a feature through the Plugin Suite in the admin.
Every setting of the plugin with its default value and explanation, in the same order as in the administration. The texts come straight from the plugin (version 2.41.1).
Choose which sales channel you are editing the settings for. Without a selection the values apply everywhere, as long as a channel has nothing of its own.
Defines which sales channel the settings below are edited for. Without a selection they apply to all channels, as long as a channel has no values of its own.
Provider, model and API key for text generation. These settings apply globally to all landing pages.
The service that writes the texts for blog posts and landing pages. Available are OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), Mistral and Google Gemini. The chosen provider needs its own API key.
Access key of the chosen text provider. It is only used for creating content and is stored encrypted. Without a key the plugin cannot generate texts.
The language model for the texts. The list follows the chosen provider; the recommended model is preselected and suited to blog posts and landing pages.
Provider and API key for AI image generation. Only used when the image mode 'AI images' is selected during creation.
The service that generates images for posts and landing pages: OpenAI (GPT Image), Google (Nano Banana / Imagen) or Higgsfield (SOUL). Depending on the choice, the matching access fields appear below.
Higgsfield generates images asynchronously, so it takes a little longer. Key ID and secret come from the Higgsfield Console.
The secret part of the Higgsfield access, paired with the key ID above. Only shown when Higgsfield is selected as image provider.
The Higgsfield model used to generate images. Left empty, the provider's default model is used.
Access key for image generation at the chosen image provider. It may differ from the key for texts and is also stored encrypted.
Look of the blog overview. If that is not enough, custom CSS can override everything.
Font, colours and text sizes of the blog overview then come from these fields instead of the theme.
Font for the body text of the blog: system font, geometric, serif or monospace. Only applies when the overview is styled independently of the theme.
Font for the headings in the blog, with the same four options as the body text. This allows, for example, serif headings combined with plain body text.
Background colour of the blog pages as a colour value.
Colour of the body text in the blog.
How much room is left between elements: compact, normal or airy. Affects the spacing between paragraphs, sections and cards.
Maximum width of the blog content in pixels, from 0 to 1600. At 0 the plugin uses the width of the theme.
Affects input fields, buttons, text colours and corner radius. With the Shopware default the blog blends into the theme, with Stone & Water the settings below take effect.
Without an image the background colour is used.
Height of the title area above the blog overview in pixels, from 120 to 640.
Alignment of headline and intro in the title area: centred or left-aligned.
How strongly the title image is darkened, from 0 to 90 percent. The dimming keeps light text readable on top of the image.
Look of the post cards: with border, with shadow, or plain with a dividing line.
Background colour of the title area when no title image is set or the image is still loading.
Colour for links, buttons and highlighted elements in the blog.
Rounding of the corners of cards, images and buttons in pixels, from 0 (square) to 32.
Gap between the post cards in pixels, from 0 to 60.
Loaded after the default CSS and therefore overrides it. Usable classes start with .staw-blog.
