When you switch your registry service from another provider to Shop Local, you may want a centralized place where customers can access both older registries (through your previous registry service) and newer registries (through Shop Local).
To do this, you can create a manual list of registrants and link each registrant to their existing registry from your previous provider.
Steps:
- Log in to your Shop Local account.
- In the main navigation, click Gift Registry to open your registry home page.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page until you see Edit manual list of registrants. This section is where you can add links to older registries.
- Click Edit manual list of registrants.
- Enter the couples’ names, wedding dates, or other details. For example:
Smith & Jones ~ May 1, 2026
Robinson & Dewey ~ August 15, 2026
Johnson & Lewis ~ September 23, 2026
- Highlight a couple’s name by clicking and dragging your cursor across the text. Then click the link icon to add a link to the selected text.
- Enter the URL for the couple’s registry from your previous registry service, then click the green checkmark.
- Repeat Steps 6 and 7 for each registrant you wish to add.
- Click Save.
