Add a template

Most prompt templates ship with the plugin and you only ever edit or fork them. The Add template wizard is the exception: it creates a brand-new template of your own. In this version it builds image-edit presets — the one-click style options that appear in the Edit image with AI modal on a product’s Media. You can write the preset by hand, or hand the AI a reference image you like and let it work out the prompt for you.

Launching the wizard

Go to AI Assistant → Prompt templates.
In the toolbar at the top of the page click Add template (the + button).

The Add template wizard opens. The button is only available if your account may edit prompts.

The 4-step wizard

Step 1 — Type

Pick the kind of template you are creating. Today the only option is Image edit (edit_image.*) — a preset that drives the Edit image with AI modal in product Media, where each preset becomes a one-click style option.

Step 2 — Source

Choose how you want to build the prompt:

Write the prompt manually — you fill in the system prompt yourself.
Generate the prompt from a reference image — you upload an image you like and the AI reads its style and writes the prompt for you.

Step 3 — Details

What you see here depends on the source you picked in Step 2.

From a reference image

Provide the reference picture one of two ways:
- Upload from your computer — a PNG, JPEG or WebP up to 6 MB. This file is used only for the analysis; it is not added to your media library.
- Pick from media library — choose an existing image from your shop’s media.
- Use Pick a different reference to swap it out. Only one reference is used at a time.
Optionally add Extra style hints (optional) — free-text steering such as “use a pastel palette”, “for cosmetics, not nutrition” or “no splash effects”.
Click Generate prompt. The AI looks at the image (and weighs your hints on top), then fills in the Name, Description and System prompt fields below, along with a Why this prompt explanation and a Confidence figure. Running Generate prompt again overwrites those fields.

Writing it manually

Fill in the fields yourself instead of generating them.

The fields (both modes)

Name — short and descriptive, up to 60 characters. This becomes the preset’s label in the Edit image with AI dropdown.
Description — optional, up to 200 characters. Shown in the prompts list and on the template’s detail page.
System prompt — the instructions sent to the image model. Describe structure, palette and typography rather than pasting literal copy, and let the model read any text off the product label itself.

Below the fields, Will be saved as type: previews the identifier your preset will get (for example edit_image.user_pastel_editorial_cream).

Step 4 — Review & save

A final summary of everything that will be saved. From here you can:

Try this prompt — test the preset against a sample product photo of your choosing before you commit.
Save template — add the preset to the prompts list right away.

What you get

Once saved, the preset appears in AI Assistant → Prompt templates like any other template, and it shows up as a one-click style option in the Edit image with AI modal on every product’s Media. See Edit image.

Working in another language

If you are editing the prompts list in a language other than English, a Translate to language button lets you read and refine the system prompt in your own language first. When you click Save template, the prompt is translated into English before saving — that is the version image-generation models work best with.
