Everything Desktop-specific. For shared topics like suppliers, pricing, and logo handling see the core concept guides below.

Core concepts

Same model across every LogoMagic product — read these once.

Installation

  • Download the Setup.exe from your purchase email or the LogoMagic releases page.
  • Windows 10 or later, 64-bit. Approximate install size: 300 MB including bundled supplier catalogs.
  • First-run Windows SmartScreen warning: click 'More info' → 'Run anyway'. We're working on code-signing.
  • Installer registers LogoMagic.exe + starts automatically on finish. Adds a Start Menu + desktop shortcut.

License Activation

  • On first launch, you'll see the unlock screen. Paste your LM-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX key.
  • The app validates with LogoMagic servers once. After that, it caches for 7 days offline. You can work without internet.
  • License key is stored locally at %APPDATA%\LogoMagic\license.json (Windows).
  • To use on a different machine: 'License → Deactivate' in the app menu (coming soon) or contact support to transfer.

Supplier Credentials (optional)

  • LogoMagic Desktop ships with preloaded catalogs for SanMar, PCNA, S&S Activewear, Gemline, and ETS Express. No supplier account needed.
  • For real-time pricing + inventory, add your own supplier API credentials in Settings → Supplier Credentials.
  • Credentials are stored locally in your operating system's secure keychain. They never leave your machine.
  • Also supports any PromoStandards-compliant supplier via 'Custom Suppliers'.

Workspace Shortcuts

  • Arrow keys: nudge the active logo by 5px (Shift+arrow = 25px).
  • [ / ] : shrink/grow the active logo by 1%.
  • R : reset the active logo's offset + rotation.
  • Ctrl+V : paste a clipboard image as a logo (Windows screenshots, Slack copies, etc.).
  • Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Shift+Z : undo/redo workspace edits.

Connecting to Shopify

  • Open the Shopify Staging screen → enter your shop domain → click Connect.
  • A browser window opens with the LogoMagic OAuth flow. Approve the install inside your Shopify admin.
  • Publishing counts against that store's LogoMagic Shopify plan quota (Free: 5 products lifetime, Starter: 25/mo, etc.).
  • Each Shopify store is independent. You can connect multiple stores and LogoMagic remembers them.

Connecting to WooCommerce

  • Each WooCommerce site needs: (1) the LogoMagic plugin installed + licensed, (2) a WordPress Application Password.
  • In WP admin: Users → Your Profile → Application Passwords. Name it 'LogoMagic Desktop' → click 'Add New' → copy the password.
  • In the desktop: WooCommerce Staging → 'Paste keys' → enter site URL + WP username + application password.
  • Publishing goes through the plugin's /wp-json/logomagic/v1/publish-product endpoint. License-gated per-site.

Auto-Update

  • LogoMagic Desktop checks for updates on every launch via GitHub Releases.
  • When an update is available, a notification appears in the app header. Click to download + install on next restart.
  • Manual check: Help menu → Check for Updates.
  • Updates never reset your license key or saved connections.
