# Quick start

There are two ways to get products onto a page — pick whichever fits how you like to work.

## Option A — a storefront, then a shortcode

1. Go to **Affiliate Egg → Storefronts → Add storefront**.
2. Paste in one or more **direct product URLs** — the plain product-page links from the shop (not your affiliate links; see below).
3. Save. Affiliate Egg reads each URL and stores the product data — title, price, image.
4. Copy the storefront's shortcode and paste it into any post or page:

```
[affegg id=10]
```

Then insert the shortcode into your post — type it, or use the **Add storefront** button in the editor toolbar to pick a storefront and drop it in for you.

## Option B — the Storefront block, all in the editor

Prefer to stay in the post editor? Add the **Affiliate Egg Storefront** block, paste your product (or category) URLs straight into it, and Affiliate Egg extracts the products and creates the storefront for you. You get a live preview, and you can switch templates and adjust output settings without leaving the editor.

## A few things that apply either way

* **Use plain product URLs, not your affiliate links.** You'll turn them into affiliate links in one place (next point).
* **Turn on your affiliate links.** When you save a storefront, each shop's domain is added to the **Deeplink** tab automatically. Open it and set your affiliate link for that domain — once per shop, and it applies to every product from it. See [Deeplink settings](/affiliate-links/deeplink.md).
* **Pull a whole category** instead of a single product by pasting a category URL with this syntax:

```
[import limit=10]https://supershop.com/some-category
```

* **Pick a template** for how products look — see [Templates](/displaying-products/templates.md).

That's the whole loop. Prices and stock refresh on their own ([Price updates](/keeping-products-fresh/priceupdate.md)); if a shop ever blocks access, see [When a shop blocks access](/getting-data-reliably/blocking.md).
