1. Audit & remove existing Tweakwise JS

Inventory current integration.
- Identify all Tweakwise-related scripts, initialization code.
- Note any custom local configuration overrides (for example, passing custom filterTemplateId, sortingTemplateId, or other options). These may need to be re-applied or ported later.
- Event Tag events (search, clicks, pageviews, add-to-cart, other events) can be left as-is.
Remove / comment out old JS.
- Remove classic JS import scripts (for Search, Suggestions, Commerce, Recommendations, etc.).
- Clean up any custom initialization code, but document what you’re removing. Keep a backup or version control branch.
Deploy a “clean slate” in a staging environment.
- Before proceeding, make sure your staging or test environment no longer loads the old Tweakwise JS components.
- This ensures that when you start fresh with Plugin Studio, there are no conflicts or duplicated behavior.

2. Enable Plugin Studio

Contact Tweakwise Support / Onboarding Specialist, if Plugin Studio is not already activated for your account. Tweakwise
Ensure you have a Tweakwise test (sandbox) environment for Plugin Studio configuration changes. You’ll want to preview tile designs and module behavior before going live.

Follow Tweakwise JS - Getting started and implement Tweakwise JS in the recommended order.

Perform a complete manual validation flow in your staging environment:
- Search bar + Suggestions (typing, navigating, selecting results)
- Search results page (filters, sorting, paging, merchandising behavior)
- Lister page (filters, sorting, paging, merchandising behavior)
- Product tiles (design, data accuracy, responsiveness)
- Recommendations (if used)
- Analytics and events (make sure Event Tag events fire correctly)
- Cross-browser/device checks
- Runtime errors in the console
Contact Tweakwise Support / Onboarding Specialist to copy the Plugin Studio configuration from the test instance to production.
Push your staging environment to production, make sure it uses the production Tweakwise instance.
Perform the same manual validation flow on production.

Collaborate with Tweakwise Onboarding / Support. Our team can help with optimal configuration and ensure you’re set up correctly.
Iterate gradually. Don’t try to do everything at once. First implement search + suggestions, then commerce, then recommendations as recommended.
