How to turn on the Personalization Engine

Activate real-time recommendations in one click

Overview

The Personalization Engine is the core of Liva 7. It powers real-time recommendations, session scoring, and adaptive content across your storefront. Turning it on is one of the first and most important steps in your setup journey.

Where to find it

  1. Go to the Targeting Rules tab
  2. Locate the Engine status section at the top
  3. You’ll see a toggle labeled 'Personalization Engine' - switch it to On

Once activated, you’ll see a confirmation message:
'Personalization is active.'

What happens when it’s on

  • Liva 7 begins analyzing shopper behavior in real time
  • Recommendation widgets and Smart Bundles start adapting dynamically
  • Session scoring and targeting rules become active
  • Data sync status is displayed (Products, Customers)

The engine must be active for Liva 7 to deliver personalized experiences and track performance.

Check data sync

Below the engine toggle, you’ll see the Data Sync panel. Make sure all key data types are marked as Synced:

If any are out of sync, click Sync All Data or sync them individually.

Troubleshooting

  • If the toggle doesn’t activate, check your store permissions and internet connection
  • Ensure your Shopify store is properly connected
  • Contact support if the engine remains inactive after multiple attempts
