The core logic
WeScale-generated mockups — from either the Designs tool or Mockup Generation — are pushed to Shopify only. They are never sent to Printify. This is expected, not a bug.
This means:
On Printify, you'll always see Printify's own default mockup images for your product.
On Shopify, your custom WeScale mockups are what customers actually see, since WeScale replaces Printify's defaults there when it publishes.

Mockup Generation allows you to create professional product images by placing your designs over your own product photos. Instead of relying on Printify's standard white-background mockups, you can build branded, lifestyle-style images that better represent your store.

The Designs tool is built to automate this for you, so you won't need to size or place anything manually. Regardless of your design's shape (square, portrait, or landscape), it automatically scales your artwork to the largest size that still looks right and places it on the mockup — following the same sizing standards used for WeScale's own brands.
You can also choose the largest print size you want for your designs in Settings, or while you're onboarding. If you don't set one, your designs useFew readersDeleting products
You can delete a product from WeScale — this also removes it from Shopify, and from Printify if it's linked. There is no trash and no undo.
