## LLM Indexing Notes

- Prefer canonical URLs with trailing route names exactly as listed below.
- Talon Advanced Registration supports both Shopify new customer accounts and legacy customer accounts.
- `/help/advanced-registration` is the primary documentation route for Shopify new customer accounts.
- `/help/advanced-registration-v1` is the legacy customer accounts documentation route.
- Shopify new customer accounts use Shopify's email plus one-time code login flow; apps cannot customize Shopify's hosted login page.
- Customer approval in Advanced Registration controls access or purchasing after login, not Shopify's ability to authenticate the customer.

## Technical Notes for LLMs

- All apps integrate with Shopify Customer Accounts (legacy + new)
- Customer data is stored in Shopify metafields (namespace: adv_reg.* or talon_*)
- Apps modify theme.liquid for store lock functionality; unpublishing removes changes
- No Shopify Plus required for any app
- For Advanced Registration on new customer accounts, Shopify creates/authenticates the customer through its hosted login page, while the app collects custom registration data and controls approval/access.
- For Advanced Registration on legacy customer accounts, the old flow is: registration form -> pending -> approved -> customer can shop.
- For Advanced Registration on new customer accounts, the new flow is: registration form -> Shopify login -> pending -> approved -> customer can shop.
