Adding Zazzle Products
If you are a Zazzle shopkeeper as well as a WebNuggetz member you can harness the power of webnuggetz.com and promote any of the millions of products available on Zazzle! Zazzle provides shopkeepers with several options for promoting and affiliating Zazzle products. All work very well and it’s a personal choice for each shopkeeper.
WebNuggetz has a Zazzle plugin called Zstore installed that allows anyone to use the Zazzle Store Builder on this site. It gives Zazzle shopkeepers a way to promote their own shops or designs as well as affiliating others.
I have added a post promoting a firefighting design using the Zstore plugin : Firefighters Rock!
You can see it has a nice grid layout and I have set it to show 20 products. To use the Zstore plugin you have to add a line of code to your post. To read up on all of the available options for the Zstore please visit the plugin authors page:

I will provide the code I used for the Firefighters Rock post so if you’d like to use it all you need to do is change the information to suit your own needs.
1. Name of the Zazzle store: The Zazzle username associated with the store you wish to show products from. Also referred to as Contributor Handle or Zazzle Username.
2. The Product Line ID: Allows you to display a specific product line. Leave blank to show all products from a gallery. The product line ID can be found by clicking on a product line in a gallery. The URL will look something like http://www.zazzle.com/firefighters/gifts?cg=196084771527383115. The string or numbers on the end is the product line ID.
3. Your Associate ID: An ID used for referrals. Found under the associates center, which can be found in the Associates tab of your Zazzle account: http://www.zazzle.com/my/associate/associate.
This is the code I used for the Firefighters Rock post. You can highlight it, copy it(HTML MODE!) and paste it into your post. Then edit the information:

Below is a merged screenshot for visual reference. The three important parts of the code are highlighted:

Incredibly helpful…as a newer miner here this is information I need to create stunning pages.
Awesome post thank you for the great information.
Thank you
Thank you! I think I can do this now! =D
Thanks for these detailed instructions! I’ll refer to your Firefighter’s post for ideas. :)
I just want to double-check something. If we want to promote someone else’s store, can we just put that store-owner’s handle in instead of our own? Suppose I want to feature a specific T-Shirt from one store and another from another store? Do I use the product ID instead of a product line ID?
Barbara,
To promote a zazzle shop, yours or another- you just add that stores store-owner’s handle(shop name) in the code:
[zstore contributorhandle="store-owner’s handle" productlineid="Product Line ID" zstore associateid="Your Associate ID"]
This plugin uses the Zazzle Store Builder that Zazzle created for displaying products. It’s basically a wrapper that enables ZSB code to work within WordPress without causing problems.
It’s designed to pull products from a section in, by default it pulls all products. There are producttype shortcodes we can add to narrow down which products we want to pull in. I’ve listed an example in the comments using the producttype=”mugs” code.
It’ll pull in a Zazzle shop section but not one individual product as far as I know. I could not get only one shirt to show up when I tested it. It’s not designed for that.
The best way to pull in individual products like one shirt from shopA and one shirt from shopB is to use the promotion methods Zazzle provides under each product on the product page.
I hope this help:)

I really appreciate this help.
This is the code from above that you can copy, paste and edit into your post..using the visual OR HTML editor:
[zstore contributorhandle="firefighters" productlineid="196084771527383115" zstore associateid="238995336435856180"]
Use this code if you only want to showcase one type of product:
[zstore contributorhandle="firefighters" productlineid="196084771527383115" producttype="mugs" zstore associateid="238995336435856180"]
Replace mugs with the product name.
Thanks for this tutorial!
Thanks this was very helpful as always!!
