We recently released a faster and easier way to connect your WooCommerce site to Sign Customiser. If you were previously using the Sign Customiser plugin that you installed via the WordPress "plugins" tab, this article will walk you through the steps required to use the newer integration.

<script> window.SpcWc.init(); </script>
