Rose Perl Store Locator and the script tag shutdown
On March 1, 2027 Shopify stops loading script tags on storefronts. If your store still loads Rose Perl Store Locator that way, the store locator will stop unless its replacement is switched on first.

What we saw
In our October 2026 sample of 2,468 Shopify stores, 21 (0.9%) were loading Rose Perl Store Locator through a script tag. On none of those stores did we see an app embed for Rose Perl Store Locator active alongside it. That can mean the stores have not switched it on, or that Rose Perl Store Locator does not offer one yet. Its support team can tell you which.
What to do
- In your Shopify admin go to Online Store → Themes → Customize, then open App embeds in the left sidebar.
- Find Rose Perl Store Locator in the list and switch it on, then save.
- If Rose Perl Store Locator is not listed, update the app from its own settings page, or ask its support for the app-embed version.
- Reload your storefront and confirm the feature still shows. If it now appears twice, the old script tag and the new embed are both running; the duplicate disappears on March 1, or sooner if the app removes its old script tag.
These are the general steps Shopify describes for moving off script tags. Rose Perl Store Locator may have its own instructions; where they differ, follow theirs.
How to tell if your store is one of them
Script tags do not appear anywhere in the Shopify admin. Enter your store address and the check lists every script tag your storefront loads, which app each belongs to, and which ones already have a replacement active. How the sample was built.
